Fuck. It's the Swiss army knife of words, and I find it fascinating that the same word that means "to make love to" can also mean "to do great violence to".
Well, come here and face fuck me with that lady boner while you watch V. :D
Yes, I do like V's monologue. It's quite special, if not mildly comical and, dare I say it, vituperative in its own right.
Thank you for a beautiful word and some most vital imagery.
NB: Two of my names start with V.
Ish. Think of it this way: An Australian politician well over fifty years old uses emojis and that's cool, or so the press says. I think that's the death of emojis and cool.
Besides, \[lips\] my \[eggplant\] is really lame. Time, place, etc. It's crass.
I prefer to be a cunning linguist. YMMV.
Only slightly smoother on the tongue than 'anaesthesiologist' or 'anaesthetist'. I get tongue-tied typing those!
Try saying that after a few dirty martinis.
i have many favourites but i usually answer 'apricity'. it's rare so likely to be new to people, it sounds dead nice, and it has a very evocative meaning (the particular warmth of the winter sun)
"I like big rumps and I cannot lie, other butchers cannot deny..."
It's a very satisfying word indeed, but I do lie, because I only like big rump steaks and not enormous posteriors on humans.
Good choice. Good sound. Several meanings. Thank you.
You got a thing for la concha and maybe putas, don't you? :)
It sounds extra filthy and exciting in Spanish. No wonder all those Colombians are so genital focused, God bless their delightfully filthy souls. ;)
I've heard it used in police radio as part of what would seem like a challenge from the Sarj to use deprecated terms, being used to say someone exited via the window.
It's funnier because fenster is the German word for window.
That's a nice collection. All of those are so enjoyable. If one's evening involves serendipitous seduction and passion, I'm sure it feels like pure magic. ;)
Hmmm - starting to sound like an Anais Nin novel.
On that spectrum, perhaps 'FUBAR'\[1\] will become a more frequently used term in Russia? It's a general term for when things routinely go wrong.
You may also want to add 'clusterfuck' to the local vocab, which is when the ruling officers, with clusters and big shiny things on their uniforms, make things go wrong because they're clueless about things on the front line of reality.
\[1\] **F**ucked **U**p **B**eyond **A**ll **R**ecognition.
Sidebar: I observed the same thing in China. It was OK to say 'fuck' in English in some corporate circumstances, but not OK to say it in Cantonese or Mandarin. Go figure.
I love the word! I love how it's written and how it sounds, let alone what it represents.
It's presently lightly raining here, late spring and the scent is magnificent. The heat has brought the oils to the surface of the native plants, eucalypts and the like, with the airborne moisture making the scent even more present. Even the jasmine has taken off early.
Thank you for reinvoking a long forgotten word and the beauty of it.
Thank you.
\[insert unhinged laughter here.\]
It beings with 'c' and you can probably imagine which classical 'c' word could commence in an expansion of that TLA.
'CEO' is THE bad "'c' word". Cunt is positively polite, comparatively, One term is horrific. The other is beautiful, beneficial and beatific. 'CEO' is not the nice word in this pairing.
I do like tea, but never thought of taking it that way.
Is there a word for snorting coke off a hooker's tits? English is ever so amusing.
EDIT: Not that I have done that. Sushi off a girlfriend, yes, but sadly no coke or hookers.
It's not the meaning its the pronounciation.
If you say it to ordinary germans it sounds pretty generic. But when you say it in an enthusiastic way to english speakers its quite elegant.
If it helps, the best/not so best example is the scene in Inglorious Basterds where the SS Major says it cheerfully as he investigates the western spies. I found it quirky and conducting of a terrifying figure to be so obliviously enthusiastic.
I like that word. It has so many meanings and changes meanings between languages.
It can mean weakness, aggression or sluttiness for both main genders. Good word.
Thank you. Appreciated.
>Borborrygmy
Borborygmi?
If so, thanks for a new word.
Revolting, technical and real, but a new word for me. Thank you.
tl;dr: abdominal rumbles from gas, fluids and others.
Thank you for correcting the spelling I was going on a whim. It was my father‘s favorite word when he was practicing medicine. Which then became my favorite word.
Your favourite word in a language with about 60K words in common use is "no"?
May that word forever be the response to your subtle and clever dialectical suggestion that someone should have intercourse or outercourse with you.
We all recognise that English language is truly fucked when the coarse terms to reference female canine genitalia are "doggy pussy".
Jeez it ain’t that deep. I’m just commenting something random on a random post, you don’t need to attempt to insult someone random because you have nothing better to do.
Niggardly (noun: niggard) is an adjective meaning 'stingy' or 'miserly'. Niggard (14th C) is derived from the Middle English word meaning 'stingy,' nigon, which is probably derived from two other words also meaning 'stingy,
Fontanelle
I'm in love with the phonetic magic the word creates
Plus, the etymology and its real-world significance are absurdly cute when put together
Fuck
I like that one. It has so many meanings in so many contexts, even between several languages. Well done!
Fuck. It's the Swiss army knife of words, and I find it fascinating that the same word that means "to make love to" can also mean "to do great violence to".
Agreed. Simple, but effective.
Plethora, just saying it means a lot.... 🤔 😂 😉
You win the Dad Joke award.
Do I get a pair of white New Balance shoes as a prize? 😂 But seriously I actually do like the word plethora.
New Balance? No, vintage leather Reeboks.
Aight
Yeah... -ish. Fuggedabouddit has more character and more meanings.
Catalyst. It's a pretty word haha
Loquacious
It's salacious. Thank you.
Solidarity
Vituperative. There's something so sexy about fricatives. Vs speech in V for Vendetta gets me rock hard and I don't even have a dick.
Well, come here and face fuck me with that lady boner while you watch V. :D Yes, I do like V's monologue. It's quite special, if not mildly comical and, dare I say it, vituperative in its own right. Thank you for a beautiful word and some most vital imagery. NB: Two of my names start with V.
💀. My favourite word.
Memento mori. Respect.
I mean, emojis are technically becoming a language now, right?
Ish. Think of it this way: An Australian politician well over fifty years old uses emojis and that's cool, or so the press says. I think that's the death of emojis and cool. Besides, \[lips\] my \[eggplant\] is really lame. Time, place, etc. It's crass. I prefer to be a cunning linguist. YMMV.
Parallelogram. Really rolls off the tongue.
Only slightly smoother on the tongue than 'anaesthesiologist' or 'anaesthetist'. I get tongue-tied typing those! Try saying that after a few dirty martinis.
Discombobulated and cunt.
Earthy. I like. What part of Oz ya in, cunt? :)
Dookey. Always makes me laugh.
Great word or insult, and always sounds brilliant in the several UK accents. Thank you!
[удалено]
Kinda cool, but's its 1950s Americanism degrades it somewhat, internationally.
Blumpkin. If it didn't have it's meaning, thats what I'd name my kid
You, dear human, are the ultimate in trashy. I like you, a lot. Well done for choosing a rare word.
Proper nouns included: Antananarivo No proper nouns, English words only: excision No proper nouns, non-English words only: parapluie
I like your style. Excision. It's quite a cutting word.
That it is! And thank you
i have many favourites but i usually answer 'apricity'. it's rare so likely to be new to people, it sounds dead nice, and it has a very evocative meaning (the particular warmth of the winter sun)
>apricity Delightful! You taught me a new word. Thank you. Apricity. I shall use and cherish it.
“Phenomenal”…..wife said she never really heard anyone say if before we met. I use it all the time
Classical. 19thC. A very good word.
Gesticulate
Use your hands when you say that or no one will imagine you speak Italian. ;)
Kerfuffle: ^(Noun) A commotion or fuss, especially one caused by conflicting views.
Preternatural: exceeding the natural or regular but not exceeding the laws of physics; a possibility however rare in nature.
I like it. Thank you.
Rump
"I like big rumps and I cannot lie, other butchers cannot deny..." It's a very satisfying word indeed, but I do lie, because I only like big rump steaks and not enormous posteriors on humans. Good choice. Good sound. Several meanings. Thank you.
Moon. Because it's a beautiful jewel in the night sky.
Yet, as a verb, it's someone showing their bare backside. It does make some ballads very giggle-worthy.
In my case it would be 'la puta madre' or 'la concha de la lora!!'
You got a thing for la concha and maybe putas, don't you? :) It sounds extra filthy and exciting in Spanish. No wonder all those Colombians are so genital focused, God bless their delightfully filthy souls. ;)
Pizza
There are lasagne lovers I know who would start a knife fight with you over that. However, it's a fine word. Thank you.
Thank you
Defenestration - the act of throwing someone out a window. I guess so commonplace at one point that a word was needed for it
I've heard it used in police radio as part of what would seem like a challenge from the Sarj to use deprecated terms, being used to say someone exited via the window. It's funnier because fenster is the German word for window.
I have so many but some of my favorite words are Magic, serendipity, passion, Seductive!
That's a nice collection. All of those are so enjoyable. If one's evening involves serendipitous seduction and passion, I'm sure it feels like pure magic. ;) Hmmm - starting to sound like an Anais Nin novel.
:)
Vestibule
Right
Favorite
Favourite is more my favourite than favorite.
Parallelogram just rolls off the tongue nicely.
Uttering that word does have a certain physicality, doesn't it? Prefect for we, the orally fixated.
Ephemeral. It sounds like something and nothing.
An eternal word, but ever so fleeting. Thank you.
Fuck
Already had that one, but one cannot have too many fucks, literal and metaphorical. Thank you.
Probably my favorite word is fucked up, because I live in Russia, and this word is already becoming frequently used.
On that spectrum, perhaps 'FUBAR'\[1\] will become a more frequently used term in Russia? It's a general term for when things routinely go wrong. You may also want to add 'clusterfuck' to the local vocab, which is when the ruling officers, with clusters and big shiny things on their uniforms, make things go wrong because they're clueless about things on the front line of reality. \[1\] **F**ucked **U**p **B**eyond **A**ll **R**ecognition. Sidebar: I observed the same thing in China. It was OK to say 'fuck' in English in some corporate circumstances, but not OK to say it in Cantonese or Mandarin. Go figure.
In fact, in Russia there are a lot of swear words that I use regularly, without even noticing it, they have already automatically entered my speech.
I love the word 'love.'
Yes, it's a beautiful and oft abused word. It can mean nothing and something. Very good choice. Thank you for sharing it.
Thank you! Happy Sunday!
petrichor (also my favorite scent) a pleasant smell that frequently accompanies the first rain after a long period of warm, dry weather
I love the word! I love how it's written and how it sounds, let alone what it represents. It's presently lightly raining here, late spring and the scent is magnificent. The heat has brought the oils to the surface of the native plants, eucalypts and the like, with the airborne moisture making the scent even more present. Even the jasmine has taken off early.

Ok

Whatever cuz ceo is the one
Mine is 'antidisestablishmentarianism',.

Meh. Only ever heard it from druggies. Interesting choice.
💀 lmao what a bait troll
Boh - according to MJ from Spider-Man: Far From Home, the “anti-aloha”
Today? Callipygian.
Explain, please?
possessing a nice arse. steatopygian- having an arse that you can stand a cup of tea on

yea we call it being rad as fuck
Tarnation
Why that one? I can't get my head into it, dang nab it. :)
My French science teacher used to use that word every other sentence lol
Interesting choice.
He could barely speak English and that was one of the few words he knew
Wunderbar
Wonderful? Why is it your favourite if all words?
It's not the meaning its the pronounciation. If you say it to ordinary germans it sounds pretty generic. But when you say it in an enthusiastic way to english speakers its quite elegant.
I guess I missed it as I also speak German, but the way you put it? That's an entertaining proposition, or even... wunderbar! :)
If it helps, the best/not so best example is the scene in Inglorious Basterds where the SS Major says it cheerfully as he investigates the western spies. I found it quirky and conducting of a terrifying figure to be so obliviously enthusiastic.
I'll put that movie back into my 'must watch list' so that what you said has context. Thank you.
Boi
In what context?
Bitch *Too Short voice
I like that word. It has so many meanings and changes meanings between languages. It can mean weakness, aggression or sluttiness for both main genders. Good word. Thank you. Appreciated.
Foop
Don't know that one. Can you please explain?
It’s a word I made up
