it is good to know the meaning of “brobdingnagian”
but I hesitate to remend using it. On the other hand
we are more interested in the kind of vocabulary that is used in academic speech and writing regardless of which discipline we are concerned with. We need to be familiar with academic vocabulary in order to feel fortable in academic environment or work place. 主英用? Do you mean = 主要英文用. Sorry if I misunderstand you.
