Which one? There's a british accent for each square mile. :p

 

I used to have a friend from London so my opinion is really biased. :p

 

 

"Debris" is pretty cool.

I love the word 'pannenkoek' (which is Dutch for pancakes). Pah-neh-cook just sounds so much fun. I use it to cuss people out too. ("Wat ben je toch een pannekoek!/You're such a pancake!").

 

Also I love KRANKENHAUS from German (hospital). It's especially funny if you shout it xD

I like being able to properly use "juxtaposition". It's a great work but can almost never be used properly in a natural context.

I feel the same about the word quintessential.

Oh, I actually use that word quite a lot (even in Dutch language), during dramaturgy lessons and school projects mostly

I hate it :p We always confuse it with the non-existing word dramatology or the tongue twisting dramatolurgy.

 

Actually, tongue-twister is a nice word.

I can't help but thinking dermatology after reading this exchange.

I really like "hipopótamo" (hippopotamus) because it's round and chubby, like the animal

Hmmm.... I really like the sound of turnip and parsnips ^^ There's just something about them that sounds nice!! Maybe I just like words with nip at the end (so catnip too) since it sounds really cute :3 <3 Cuddles is a cute word too!!

LOL this reminds me of the movie "Bad Words", an extremely funny one where the kid keeps asking the guy whats his favorite word, you guys should watch this pretty hilarious, I don't wanna spoil what the guy answered :p

 

anyway, my Favorite word is confuzzled. I just love how two words are simply combined together and make a new word out of it, Touche'
