what's the meaning "beneath all the 10-dollar words"?
I found that is a kind of "difficult words", but hard to understand "beneath all the 10-dollar words."

does mean "without using difficult words," or other thing?

Answer

You did not provide enough context but here is my input:

Ten-dollar words are fancy, snobbish words used by the upper elite.
"Underneath" means "below the surface" and probably refers to the hidden or underlying message.

Thus, it is saying that all the fancy words are being used to confuse the listeners so they will not be aware of (or recognize) the basic plain truth that lies "underneath" the fancy words.
