Favourite Word?

[Brownie101]

Balls.
I use it in a "Oh...Shit." sort of way.

 

[Mo-shi]

Kerfuffle. The hockey reporters ... actually say it quite often.

"OH, WE'VE GOT QUITE A KERFUFFLE THERE FROM MALHOTRA! HIGH STICKING, THAT'S GOING TO COST HIM!" >:O

 

[b1u3too]

Either mayhaps, or Muladhara. Because roots are cool, and I need to put mine back where they belong.

 

[figday]

Fuck.

works on any occasions

 

[thylasos]

Corpulence, in English.

In Russian... первобытный, probably, which means primitive, (first-being, literally).

 

[Aur0ra145]

Beer. The reasons should be obvious.

 

[AnimatedAmbiguity]

Titillating.

I just really, really like the ways it sounds, is all...

 

[gokenshadow]

Amity

It's so nice sounding.

 

[Ladette]

Momentai:
It means "No Problem" in Cantonese, I stole it from Digimon Tamers Terriermon. I use it as a replacement for relax.

 

[Ghaleon640]

Maybe not my favorite, but a fun one to throw around when goofing around, 'schnitzel'

If by sound:
"Elegance" has always been one of my favourites. The sounds seem to really fit the concept to me.

If by "wait, there's actually a unique word for that?":
"Fenestrate". Every kid who's heard of the Defenestration of Prague knows that that "defenestration" is one of the better weird words lying around in the dustier corners of English, but "fenestration" is just absurd. Being thrown out of a window is one thing and we see it happen often enough in fiction alone to make the word slightly reasonable, but how often do you see people thrown into windows.

Arson. The idea that someone, years ago, had to come up with a name to give the crime of causing a premeditated fire to a building for some type of personal gain, and then came up with a word that sounds like some dude's name is, hilarious to me. Arson itself isn't funny (okay, maybe a little), but the word sure is.

Asinine. It's a fancy way of saying an idea is incredibly idiotic, but apparently it's used so little that it can be mistaken for a swear. The people that worked on the clean version of Eminem's "Relapse" blanked it not only once, but then again on his next album "Recovery." Nowadays, I try to use it as much in conversation as possible.

Thanks for adding another awesome word to my vocab.

 

[elbrandino]

Scruples, fuck, or most anything in Latin.

 

[Torrasque]

Boobs

Obvious reasons

DUDE I REMEMBER THAT!
Aside from that nostalgia bomb, the word would probably be immolation.

 

[Worgen]

ubiquitous

that is just an awesome word

 

[bobthewookiee]

Aloof. It just sounds funny.

 

[Moonlight Butterfly]

Pernickety I love that word. I used to use the word kerfuffle alot too but then little britain stole it from me

 

[SkyeNeko]

Flonaucinaucinihilipilification and Defenastration. i also like some other words but these were the only ones that i can say without getting in Trouble XD

i thought it was Floccinaucinihilipilification, but i could be wrong. Definitely one of the favorites that i don't use a lot though. Also Clandestine. Such an elegant word.

EDIT: oh oh oh discombobulation!
