showy or self-important display

A big, fancy show that looks important but seems too much or not very real.

استعمال کا انداز: [something] is all pomp and no substance
عام غلطی:
Learners may not realize that 'pomp' can have a negative tone, suggesting something is too showy or not sincere. When you want a positive meaning of grand ceremony, use it with a neutral context (e.g., 'royal pomp'); when you want to criticize, combine it with words like 'empty', 'hollow', or phrases like 'all pomp and no substance.'
