Adjudge vs. judge

"Adjudge", you see, is a seven-letter word. "Judge" has five letters. You'd better believe that the two extra letters are not in vain.

They are not.

The prefix ad- is from Latin ad, meaning "to". Adjudge hence means to judge, or to adjudicate (from Latin ad-, judicare, to judge), using another big word.

Big words are to be taken seriously. Don't tamper with them. Or trample them at your own peril.

Now back to the question, can you replace the word 'adjudged' with 'judged' in the sentence "the Chinese equipment is adjudged superior"?

The answer is yes, so long as you know what you're doing.

P.s. I'm going on vacation during and after the October Week-off. See you guys in mid-October. Happy holiday!
