Do you have a favorite word? If you do, what is it and why? I thought I had one, but as I started typing this discussion, I promptly forgot it. I suppose I should find a new one. While I'm doing that, let me know what yours is!

Ennui. There's something so elegant to the way it flows off across the tongue. And it's a strangely Victorian way to refer to something as mundane as boredom. (It feeling Victorian is strange because it's origin is French and it dates back a couple hundred years to the Victorian era.) Plus, just something about the shape of the word in your mouth... you can't say it without smiling. No, really. Say it with me now, "ahn wee." See what I mean?

Er, it dates back a couple hundred years BEFORE the Victorian era. Even a spell check couldn't catch that foul! Le sigh!

My favorite word is 'spooky'. It's not because of its meaning but because I like the way it sounds. Just for that and it has always been my favorite word.

I don't have any particular favorite words. But I like words that have a sense of complexity and intrigue (and sometimes imaginative or dramatic sound) to them... innuendo, attenuate, coruscate, acrimony, arcane, muse, metamorphisis, vision... you probably get the idea. =)

My favorite word is depraved. I think I like it so much because of an inside joke where my friend said he was deprived and I told he that he had one of the vowels wrong but he was still pretty close. It took him like a half hour to figure it out!
