I can't distinguish between "normal words" and "too big", that's the problem. I don't know what words to expect people to know. They all feel the same to me. It happened with the word "stickler", is that too much? It doesn't seem like it. I just don't know. I can't tell. I just...know words, and they're all the same to me.

I'm kind of the same way, I use big words without realizing they're big. I won't dumb down my language because other people don't get it but I also don't expect everyone to google every word they don't understand in order to converse with me. Maybe what someone upthread suggested is a happy alternative, when they look confused, use another synonym that's a bit simpler. If your vocab is as big as you claim, you won't have a problem coming up with other words. This is what I do if the other people look confused, or I use the word in an example, and the people I'm talking to not only learn a new word for the day, I also get to keep an acquaintance and/or friend.

"stickler" is kinda...yeah, I'd expect most people to know that one tbh. unless they were ESL.
