I like any word that starts with SP, such as spatula, spork, spoon, splay etc.

This week, it's "Loveless," "Ribbon," and "Valorious." They're all a very deep red color.

I have a bunch of favorite words, but so far, the main ones at the moment are android, computer, robot, mechanics, hacks (SPELT RIGHT, not HAX, HACKS; and I only like it because it's one syllable), and killswitch (an awesome word :p )

Right now, it's Chartreuse. I've been playing Phantom Brave lately... That scarf is hypnotic.

Veritas, the dragon of Amethyetical... Unless the strength turns to adore,

I think I can enjoy any word that has the Latin æ... Like Æsahættr in The SUbtle knife (direct translation: "threats at God"). Dæmon is a good one as well... I always want to pronounce it day-mon, even though it's wrong! ^^'>

And yes, Chartreuse is an awesome word. I thouroughly enjoy its sound.

Today, it's "Sage" and "Scent."

They're both a sort of... forest green pine needle color.

it means refering to a proverb. like kicking the bucket. "he kicked the proverbial bucket"

Anything with an 'ia' or tia' at the end. It makes the word sound really interesting.

I like defenestrate (to throw someone/something out a window)

I have been fond of the word parsimonious (excessively cheap) in the past as well.

I also like the word that means "fear of long words," but I don't want to make an a** of myself trying to spill it out. I can't even pronounce it right. I just call it "Hippo-da-da-something-something-phobia." Maybe someone can be nice to me and give the pronunciation?


I always did like parsimony, though, it is of the same family as parsimonious.
Some of my other favorite words are epitome (prime example of something), sardonic (bitterly sarcastic), dullard (someone who is idiotic), and foggiest (as in "Haven't the foggiest"). There are a ton of other words I love but those are the main ones.

"Verbose" is currently my favorite word. Before that it was "spectacular", and "Newfoundland" before that. <3
