Wording - The word "palaver" originates from the Portuguese word "palavra," meaning "word" or "speech". English sailors in 18th-century West Africa encountered this term for negotiations with local people and brought it back to England, where it eventually evolved to mean a long, unnecessary fuss or an overly complicated procedure.
