SPAGWAFF

verb; to answer an exam question using more content than necessary so as to bore or distract the examiner, and result in them marking your test correctly. The answer will typically be spelled correctly and be grammatically correct, so as to obtain a few more marks, but the rest of it doesn't even need to be relevant, so long as there is a large quantity.

originating from the abbreviation SPAG (spelling, punctuation and grammar) and the verb 'waffle', meaning to talk aimlessly (as well as Words, Abundance, Fullness and Finger spaces).

Person #1: How did you score so high on that question?
