Favourite Words

I like to write, I love to read; that makes it fairly obvious that I like words. These aren’t my favourite words, because I like what they mean or because I think they sound exactly like what they mean (which, according to me, the words laughter and mystery really do!)
It’s because I like saying them; even if only in my head (I don’t talk all that much.) I like the way they roll off your tongue or how they have a sort of easy flow or how they somehow simply sound funny!


quirky

euphemism

These are only a few that just came to my mind. Really. What are your favourite words and why?

  1. Hah, I thought of that too! But it's more like a phrase-thing for me. You know I don't like the words 'nitwit' or 'blubber' by themselves. I like tweak, though! 🙂
    Yay! You hadn't stopped by my blog in AGES.

  2. Scoundrel, Smirk and Cad because for some reason my wife uses them to describe the reasons she married me.
    I also have other favorite words and since I wanted to better know myself and others, I joined favoritewords.com – take a look, you might like that site.
