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?

Sesquipedalian.
But for every day use:
Bollocks

Quirky.

Discombobulated.

Or moist.

Ooh bellend is another!

pebble

Also Tixylix but that's a brand name so probably doesn't count.

Louche

Minutiae

don’t often get to use the word just love the way it sounds

when I have I then have had to explain what it means (about the only word I use that I do need to explain the meaning)

cantankerous

Pernickety

I love how it clicks in your mouth.

Skulduggery - it’s piratey and mischievous.

To the poster on p1 who said Chicane was their fantasy pop group, I’m afraid these guys got there first. I love this song 💜

Omentum

Gormless. I once heard someone described as having gormless legs and it summed them up perfectly!

Great and fuck. But not together.

Hiatus. I just love the way it sounds.

I've been learning Romanian on DuoLingo and the word for owl is "bufniță" (sounds like boof-NEETS-oh) which I really love.

Tessellate

Pyrrhic

Vexatious

Terpsichorean - read it a children's book believe it or not! Means relating to dancing.
Habedashery
Fuck - versatile word that can be combined with lots of others. My favourite combination is fuck-a-duck

How strange OP, I came to say my favourite is serendipity and see it us yours too.

nefarious-sounds exactly like it is.

Swoop

Susurration which is the sound of the wind in trees or a rustling/whispering.

Microwave, pronounced mee-crow - wah-vay, Nigella stylie.

Efficacious, I first heard it in the old song "Lily the Pink" by Scaffold. It sounded really interesting but the only time I have ever heard someone use it in context was my endocrinologist many years ago when I was in a drugs trial and he used it to describe the drug being trialled.

I couldn't help grinning when he said it, so I had to explain.

When I was young, in an attempt to increase my vocabulary, my DF would challenge me to learn the meaning of a new word and use it correctly in conversation. It lead to some very interesting conversations around the dinner table.

My second favourite word is soporific from Beatrix Potters "The Flopsy Bunnies". Beatrix Potter was brilliant for new vocabulary.
