So let's face it- we all work with words, and most of us because we love them. But it's hard to love one just the same as the other, isn't it? I know I pick favorites when it comes to the words I use or just find amusing. So, what are your words that you just can't help beaming when you see them? I'm super curious and interested!
For me, I have a number of favorites, but the one on my mind right now is hippopotomonstrosesquippedaliophobia. I like the irony in it, as that word is the word for 'fear of long words'. I also love it for its parts: each one has a distinct reason for having to do with the meaning, and there's a ton of parts you just kind of know mean 'big' throughout it. It's just fascinating to me!
Other words I love:
-Discombobulated
-Baffled
-Charisma
-Enigma
-Misfit
