What is a non example of eloquent?

Here are some non-examples of eloquent language, highlighting the opposite characteristics:

Instead of:

* Clear and concise: Rambling, unclear, confusing, vague

* Precise language: Generalizations, ambiguous words, slang, jargon

* Figurative language: Literal, simplistic, lacking imagery

* Powerful vocabulary: Clichés, weak verbs, bland adjectives

* Fluent and rhythmic: Choppy, awkward, repetitive, monotone

* Emotional impact: Cold, detached, uninspired, dull

* Engaging and persuasive: Boring, repetitive, unoriginal, unconvincing

Examples:

* "The thing is, like, you know, it's really hard to explain, but, um, basically, it's all about, like, doing your best, you know?" (Rambling, unclear, uses fillers)

* "She's a really good person, you know? Always helps everyone." (Generalization, weak language)

* "He went to the store and bought some stuff." (Literal, lacking imagery)

* "It was a beautiful day, like, totally perfect." (Cliché, bland adjective)

* "He walked, he talked, he ate. He walked, he talked, he ate." (Repetitive, monotonous)

* "The report was very detailed and informative." (Cold, uninspired)

* "I think we should do this because it's important, you know, and we should try to make it happen." (Boring, unconvincing)

Remember, eloquence is about effective communication, not just using fancy words. It's about clarity, precision, and impact.
