I was spending a few hours with my little cousin who is about five years old. She's just learning how to read and she wanted to show me how well she has been doing. So I pulled out one of my old children's book and let her read a few pages to me. In the book there is a character named Grubby and for some reason my cousin could never say his name without laughing. She said his name is so silly that she cannot help but laugh.
It made me think about all the words/names that make me laugh or smile whenever I say them aloud. One is fortuosity. It's just a word that I heard off of an old Disney movie I use to watch when I was little. Even now, saying it aloud makes me smile.
Do you have a word that makes you grin when you say it?

It just happens in everyone's life at their childhood, i too remember some of the words.
One is Mature, my staff would not say it as mature, she rather say it like matter and she claims this was the proper way of calling it and we students used to laugh whenever she says this word and even the staff laughed one day and accepted she just want the students to be active.
Whenever i come across this word, i would post a smile in my face and laugh !!!!

being with young children will always make us to laugh for a while. I always try to spend time with children when they are there. Coz, if we spend time with them, then we will be like children and we do some jokes.
