Your favourite word?

[Nikhar]

Which's your favorite word? The one you like to use again and again? In virtual world and real world?

In particular, I like to write 'awesum' (yes awesum spelled that way). For me, every good thing is awesum, not splendid or magnificient, but simply awesum. Also, I use 'wonder' a lot. I wonder why though. :D

But that's online. In real world, I don't have any such prejudices. Or well, not or long at least. They vary periodically.

Anyways, enough about me. I wonder which is your favorite word? ;)

[Babyguile]

I don't know but I make up my own words all the time!

:willy_nilly:

[dizzydoll]

Basorexia -- An overwhelming desire to neck or kiss.
I wonder how many on Litnet have this desire. lol. I learned from a guy who I really liked a lot.

[blazeofglory]

connection, this is my favorite word. I want to be connected. To all. To all of you. To the world

[DanielBenoit]

Aestivation - also known as "summer sleep", is a state of animal dormancy somewhat similar to hibernation.

Summer

Desolate

Aporia - in philosophy, a philosophical puzzle or state of puzzlement, and, in rhetoric, a rhetorically useful expression of doubt.

there's more I'll think of later.

[OrphanPip]

Kumquat, not because I particularly like the fruit it's just fun to say.

[cgrillo]

Antidisestablishmentarianism.

[blazeofglory]

Karma

[Niamh]

my favourite word is a very simple little word that holds so much power.
"If"

[kilted exile]

perplexing

[applepie]

malfunction and perversity

[Shalot]

Kumquat, not because I particularly like the fruit it's just fun to say.

I like this word also. It could be dirty but it's just a fruit and everyone always acts like you're not quite right if you change the q and u into other letters and say something besides kumquat. I don't know how this fruit got it's name but I like to think some perv named the fruit for the reason I just mentioned.

My favorite word of the moment though is egregious.

[L.M. The Third]

Antidisestablishmentarianism.

Love that! Here's my current favorite word, which unfortunately I don't get to use very often. uvulopalatopharyngoplasty

[Lokasenna]

I don't think I could get through a day without the words "bloody" and "bugger" - they just have so much use!

[prendrelemick]

I probably over use the words "sodding" and "pillock".

My favourite sounding word is "perspicuity" spoken in a North Preston accent.

[Lokasenna]

I probably over use the words "sodding" and "pillock".



Those are also two excellent words!

[1n50mn14]

A variety of words inappropriate to share on Lit-Net. Also, 'div'.

[DanielBenoit]

Santorum. Nuff-said :D

[ConstantReader]

Indubitably!
That is my very favorite word to use in a sentence. Several people have noticed it too.
Words make me happy, but that particular word makes smile on the outside too.

[JuniperWoolf]

I've always had a thing for the word "chicken" (not so much the animal, in either a pet or food capacity... just the word). Sometimes when someone says it aloud I'm caught saying "ch-ch-ch-chicken-k-k-chicken-chicken-n-n" under my breath.

[Bastable]

Lush. Come on. Say it. You know you want to....

[*Classic*Charm*]

^Lush is a lovely word

I love the word Katana. Yes, the sword. I think I learned it from a video game I played with my brothers when I was younger. Feel how your tongue lightly flicks off your front teeth. It just rolls right off!

[MarkBastable]

Schenectady

[Revolte]

Persist

Passion

[L.M. The Third]

I've got some dreadfully small, dull words I've used obsessively at times, and some words I've made up. But lately I've been using Nefarious and Recalcitrant. Negative, I guess.

:iagree:

My favourite word has been 'awkward' since I was in grade prep.

These days I also like the words revelation, ice-cream and bottle.

[BienvenuJDC]

I like the word 'elephant'...

Consequently, do you know what you get when you cross an elephant with a rhinoceros?

Elephino!!

[Jozanny]

In recent weeks it has been eponymous...

[blazeofglory]

Enigma

[Lacra]

My favourite word is "Discover". :)

[Lokasenna]

I'm reminded of a thing I saw on TV a while ago - I think it was QI - where someone challenged Stephen Fry to make the audience laugh with a single word. With great gravitas he stood up, faced the audience, and slowly pronounced the word "moist." The audience howled!

[Heathcliff]

I use the word 'epic' a lot these days. I don't necessarily love it, but it has sort of stuck.

I plan on going back to using words like thou, hath, art(are), etc.

[L.M. The Third]

lol. There are times when old english just comes most natural to me. It gives me a strange feeling of security when I'm uncomfortable, and yet comfortable with the person I am conversing with.

Haha. Nobody I know speaks like that. I use the word 'milord' a lot. Its pretty. :D

Don't worry - I don't go up to a store clerk and say, "I pray thee, how much doth this cost?" (Ok, that's a really bad attempt at such an example.) But I sometimes speak that way at home or with close friends. I think it seems rather natural because I was reared reading the King James Bible much more than the average person.

[lostworld]

I guess my favorite word is "hope" its not nearly as interesting as most of the others on here but its what keeps me going...so there you go.
