What’s your favourite word?

[PepsiMaxLime]

Mine’s serendipity.

I love how complicated it sounds on your tongue & the meaning of it.

What’s yours?

Lollygagg
Describes how my children approach any task

Actually my very best every favourite word is.

Granny.

Love hearing that.

Petrichor (the smell of the earth in summer after it's rained)
Closely followed by fuckwittery... if someone can make me a sentence to embody both I would be eternally grateful

It is utter fuckwittery to roll in the summer earth after rain, but at least there will be petrichor

Will that do?

Galoshes

Banger.
I will never get tired of describing something as 'a banger'.

Oh also: 'Nigglygauge'. Said by my great granny to describe some sort of fiddly action eg to get a key to open a sticky lock.
'You've got to NIGGLYGAUGE IT!!'

Tremendous

Bamboozle
wanderlust
chutzpah

Beautiful description!

Plinth. I just like the way it sounds.

Arboretum

Fuck.

Discombobulated

Perspicacious

Ashamed to say my vocabulary (also a great word) is expanding as I read replies!

Moist

Closely followed by

Not only do they have pleasing mouth movements, they are also completely inoffensive words yet they trigger bizarre reactions in other people.

Having words that give you the collywobbles makes as much sense as having words that delight you, I suppose.

Loitering

Both remind me of my mum who would accuse us kids of doing both !

Skirmish

Blithering (coupled with ‘idiot’)

Two more:
Obtuse
Euphemism

Kentucky

Sludge

Mellifluous
