    Words you really like or dislike?

    Sometimes I'll say a word or read a word and go, "This is such a good word!" Conversely, sometimes words sound awful or are just hard to say.

    I personally enjoy:
    Conduit
    Catalyst
    Perpetual
    Excellent

    I dislike:
    Simulcast (said like "sim-mel" not "sy-mel")
    Spawn (though I will admit I don't hate it as much as I used to)
    Impregnate (*shudder*)


    There are so many more, but of course I can't remember them right now. XD Do you have any favourite words, or words you just really like saying, whether it's because they sound cool or they roll off the tongue nicely? Or are there words you can't stand?

    I'm not sure if this counts, but I enjoy referring to @Suicune's Fire as "my fantastic Flareon friend from February and from the future". These words sound great to me because of alliteration. :)



    Special thanks to Fate for this cute avatar and this cute banner! :D

    Words I enjoy:
    Cheers
    Epic
    Renegade
    Rogue

    Words I dislike:
    Emoji (So first it was smiley, then emote, then emoticon, and now this?)
    Uncouth (stupid word that moves your tongue like it's trying to throw up)
    Onomatopoeia (someone must have been drunk when they came up with this one)

    @N7
    Not a fan of Ice Climbers either. And they have the most useless Final Smash of every character.

    I love the word "Zamboni." There isn't really a way to say it and still be taken seriously in my book.

    So my dad is reconstructing our front fence and just said the word "plinth" and I nearly vomited in my own mouth. What a terrible word. XD Omg I just hate it. Plinth.

    @awney that is a great list of gross words. XD Secrete and secretion are so bad. xDD Also yes, I stumble over 'particularly' as well!

    Eww, I didn't even know "plinth" was a word. Sounds like a farting noise. XD
