Tharoor is a popular figure in numerous debates for many years and often
illustrates his points in humourous phrases. Not only does he make us laugh and
has good knowledge in so many fields, his command over the English language is
outstanding and his one liners and counters to others in “certain” English
words is a motivating factor for English language learners of all ages and
groups across the globe, whether the words are ‘Farrago’ or ‘Distortions’, or
‘Floccinaucinihilipilification’. In short whatever he speaks is just supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!


He is
also the author of hundreds of columns and articles in publications such as The
New York Times, The Washington Post, TIME, Newsweek, and The Times of India. He
was a contributing editor for Newsweek International for two years. From 2010
to 2012, he wrote a column in The Asian Age, Deccan Chronicle and, for most of
2012, until his appointment as Minister, a column in Mail Today; he also writes
an internationally syndicated monthly column for Project Syndicate. He also
wrote regular columns for The Indian Express (1991–93 and 1996–2001), The Hindu
(2001–2008), and The Times of India (2007–2009).
