Informal Definitions for Challenging Words?

If you were to define the following words to a friend, how would you do so? I don't want the complex dictionary definition; I want the definition you would use to explain the word to a high school friend (very informal, maybe even a bit of slang thrown about).

Amorphous
Connive
Effulgence
Gusto
Usurp
