Favorite Words

 

I wasn't sure where to put this, but here it is! Post your favorite words here. They can be your faves because of their definition or their connotation or because they're fun to say or something else entirely.

Here's some of mine:

Colloquialism ('cause it's fun to say)

Quark (same reason)

Serendipity

Moxie

Moonshine

Flapdoodle

Codswallop

Malarkey

Claptrap (this and the four before it are all synonyms for "nonsense"; I still can't believe "flapdoodle" is a word)

Gloaming (a synonym for twilight; I love everything about this word, from its definition to its spelling)

Susurrus

Aurora

 

Have fun!
