I thought I might get a little note book and write series of more "Advanced" words for more available expressions:
Ambiguous – vague (clear antonym)
Monotonous – repetitive (varied antonym)
Authoritarianism – tyrannical (democracy Antonym)
Totalitarianism – tyrannical
Equilibrium – balance (imbalance antonym)
Notorious – infamous (famous antonym)
Ominous – threatening
Portentous – arrogant
Tedious – tiresome (interesting antonym)
Omnibus - Collection
Voracious – ravenous
Exonerate – absolve
Anyone else want to add onto my list? :D

Portentous has a meaning closer to ominous, or foreboding. I think you mean Pretentious.

Portentous is it's own word and pretentious is a another word but they both have their commodies.

I realize that they are both distinct words, what I meant is portentous does not mean arrogant.
portentous: dangerous, dire, fateful, frightful, ominous, oracular, pompous, sinister, solemn, weighty
pretentious: affected, arty, assuming, aureate, big, bombastic, chichi, conceited, conspicuous, euphuistic, exaggerated, extravagant, feigned, flamboyant, flashy, flaunting, flowery, gaudy, grandiloquent, grandiose, high-flown, high-sounding, highfalutin', hollow, imposing, inflated, jazzy, la-di-da, lofty, magniloquent, mincing, ornate, ostentatious, overambitious, overblown, pompous, puffed up, put-on, rhetorical, showy, snobbish, specious, splashy, stilted, swank, too-too, tumid, turgid, utopian, vainglorious
