autological
such erudite english words
magniloquent [indeed]

Except, Merrium-Webster says it’s not a word at all! https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/autological, however, it does define autologous: https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/autologous
And…magnlioquent means: Grandiose and pompous.
Now, my brain hurts. (I’m feeling cephalalgia.)
