I like words. I like the way they sound. A lot of the time the definition of some words don’t matter when the word itself has an interesting sound.
Frittalaria.
This is a word that my mother would use in the Springtime. It made me laugh and smile. Doesn’t it just sound sublimely ridiculous?
My mother and I play games with words and get completely silly over them. For example, we created a world of knights with all words that either begin with Sir, or begin with the sound of Sir.
Sur-Cease: This knight is the one that always stops arguments. A peacemaker.
Sur-Vey: Brother to Oy-Vey.
Sur-Plice: Has a bit of a religious background. Will take confessions, if needed.
There are a lot.
What words do you like just for the way they sound?

I would have to say my latest crush on a word would have to be one of the drugs at work. I get all giggly when I do count and call it out ::lol::
Oxycodone
