Re: What's your favourite word?

Pulchritudinous. Yes. It's so fun to say. It sounds like it would mean something like putrid or disgusting or gross, but it really means beautiful. That's why it's the best word ever.

Cuz it comes from Latin "pulchra"

My favourite word is floccinaucinihilipilification, cuz it is just awesome.

Re: What's your favourite word?

Hmm... my favorite word would be... uh... OH, I KNOW!

It's antidisestablishmentarianism.  I think that's the longest word in the English language!

Nope.  Floccinaucinihilipilification is the longest non-medical term in the English language.

Re: What's your favourite word?

Irk[some]. Or crevice.

But I actually say "Irk" and all it's derivatives, so I guess that's my only valid option.

Re: What's your favourite word?

I have plenty of favorite russian words, but I don't think posting them here would help much. 3:

I haven't decided about my favorite english words yet, because I dislike english. >.>


http://i52.tinypic.com/5es7t0.png I know what you're thinking! "Neptune! Get rid of those filthy advertisements and give us back the Zarathustra siggy, you horrible person!" Well, don't worry about it, the Zara siggy will be back soon, new and improved! ^^ Meanwhile, just do what the sig tells you to. >.>
