Identify the awkward or illogical part of the following sentence. Fustian writing is where you write pompous, bombastic nonsense
11111nata11111 [884]
The sentence "Fustian writing is where you write pompous, bombastic nonsense." is illogical for the following reasons:

1. Fustian, like the sentence implies, means pretentious speech or writing.
2. Fustian writing does not refer to a place.
3. The word <em>where </em>is used to refer to a place.
4. Using the word <em>where </em>implies that<em> fustian writing</em> is a place, which is wrong.

Therefore, one can correct the sentence and say this instead: Fustian writing is when you write pompous, bombastic nonsense.
