Your favourite word?

[Gilly]

I'm an unashamed word geek. I like etymology, and I like nice sounding words, like mellifluous (which certainly is).

Defenestration is a good one, strangely as are sesquipedalian and brobdingnagian

Give me yours

 

[dirtychinchilla]

Mine is odious.

 

[Gilly]

Oh, and I like saying moist.

 

[Yaayuh!]

Moist and Flannel

 

[snitcher]

flannel is a good one.

 

[Scottland]

Oh, and I like saying moist.

Who doesn't!


My favourite at the moment is ensorcell

 

[GravyMonster]

Defenestration is a good one

I used to enjoy Defenestration, but then I discovered Onomatopoeia and boom, it went right out the window.

 

[Space Monkey]

Cellar Door

 

[Gilly]

I found onomatopoeia at school whilst studying Wilfred Owen. My teacher wrote it on the board incorrectly

I liked the use of it, BTW

 

[DJMK4]

Flange


And

Cous Cous although thats technically two

 

[Cosimo]

Procrastination and tit.

 

[Mojo]

My favourite word is currently 'Flange'. It is incredibly versatile as words go: not only can it be used to describe intimate ladycaves but it can be used as a derogatory term for people ('He's a right flange') or just as an expletive in it's own right!

 

[Feef]

I was coming in to say defenestrate. Nobody could understand why I was so happy after being pushed out of a window at a party in Mongolia. One of my proudest moments.

 

[gobbo]

tappets

Used universally as the item of blame when something doesn't work correctly, regardless of what the something is.

 

[Uncle Petey]

Discombobulate

 

[Mobius 1]

syllabub.

 

[xbenjiiman]

"Moron" is definitely a personal favourite.

 

[Kronos]

Grommet has to be up along with flagellation ,

 

[Nismo]

Spork.

 

[haaammit]

Moist goes without saying!

I have two. One is glistening. The other is pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis, which interestingly enough I can actually pronounce
