Your Definition
Someone who diverts attention from the core point in an argument by taking offence or paying excessive attention to the [individual] words used. It's similar to the strawman fallacy. This tactic is quite effective in that the person making [the original] point becomes [distracted] and usually ends up forgetting or relinquishing their core argument because they end up addressing the wordworm's objections.
