"Embiggens" is a humorous, informal word meaning "to make bigger" or "to enlarge." It originated as a joke in The Simpsons but has since been adopted in casual usage

Had no idea what that word meant. Added to my vocab

Ha! Not sure if it is formally a real word, but I like to use it. Sounds so much better than saying "gets bigger".

Well maybe not, but it does to me. My mother would not like me using it, but she ain't (she didn't like that one either) here!

At least I hope not! 😀 😲
