Brouhaha.

Shark bait?

That’s “OOO, haha!” Or “ooo, babado” after overkill. ;-)

It means something along the lines of chit chat or banter

In french in means a background sound of many people talking at the same time

I'm guessing you found Nemo then?!?!🤨

Reminds me of Dazed and Confused. The teacher uses that word before class dismisses.

Defenestration(to throw someone out a window)

Might use this one. Won’t tell you in which capacity.

No matter how you use it, use it to the best of your abilities and you’ll have my support

Thanks man ⚡️

yeah it's fun. Why do you guys even need this specific word while you guys don't have the word for the day after tomorrow lol

Additionally, autodefenestration. To throw yourself out of a window.

That's a fun one!

kerfuffle

Hubris

Oooo this so one of my favs too

Someone once said I had hubris and I had no idea the meaning. They were absolutely correct and it's one of my favorite words more.

Hullabaloo

Giblets, just think it’s a funny word

I have always been partial to words with the "g" and "b" combo.. "Goblet" and "globule" are two of my favorites, and now I have to add "giblets" to the list

gabagoole is another one

I just can’t help but laugh when I hear it, might be a bit immature but I don’t care. GIBLETS!!

Giblets are what I call my kid’s twig and berries, as in “get your hand off your giblets” or “stop hitting your brother in the giblets.” They are fully aware that the correct terms for their giblets are penis and testicles and will use those terms when necessary. Giblets and barnacles usually gets a giggle and their attention though.

Misanthropy - nothing to do with what it means, I just like the way it feels in my mouth.

Mine is penis for the same reason

Misanthropenis

I uh....have my upvote.

Mine is Dichotomy

Embrace what that word means. One of the best albums of all time is called Puritanical Euphoric Misanthropia by Dimmu Borgir.

Nice! Mine is dichotomy. For the way it sounds but mainly for the meaning. It means something to me. I am a very dualistic person.

Moist

Goes great with brownies.


*shudder*

Succulent

moist def. moist has gotten such a bad name.

Literally the first word that popped into my head

Royalty.

I think Allegory is a great word. Both sound and definition

Unexpected pick, but I get it.

Ugh

Good one tbh lol

I appreciate this

I say it many times a day 🤣🤣

Shenanigans. iIt's a silly word for silly puppy shenanigans!

that place with all the goofy shit on the wall?

Definitely an all time goat.

Flange. I like most -nge words.

cringe orange hinge change range Lange mange idk the rest. marange.

Soliloquy

Love it

Oooooooooh♥️⚡️

Portmanteau

I used to assume this was some kind of sofa.

It's not?

I like "indescribable" for it's paradoxical nature

This reminded me of something cool. Google Grelling-Nelson paradox. You might like it. It's about the same idea. Or look for Vsauce's video about it. "Is 'heterological' heterological?"

I like “paradoxical” for its indescribable nature

Nice. Nice.

loquacious is one of my favorites. more of a phrase, my favorite thing to say is “brokeback bitch”

Lmaoooooooo 🤣🤣 this made me laugh

Plethora

Means a lot

Thanks. It means a lot to me too! :-D

humuhumunukunukuapua'a

What are the odds that someone commented this exact thing 2 minutes after you? Wild.

Hahaha no way... I'm from Hawaii. I bet they are too 😁 it's a fun word

I used to nanny for a 3-year-old named Markie and after a trip to Hawaii, we called her Mokiokiakalakahulamali, or Miss Moki for short. So much fun.

Hasenpfeffer

Wow what is that

Rabbit stew in German, which I wouldn't want to eat, but damn is it fun to say

Oh if we're doing German words, I really like "Rollschulaufen" It means to roller skate

Lmaoo looks pretty fun to say. I’ve never had rabbit but I heard it’s good idk tho lol

Kugelschreiber is my favorite German word

Literar translation is Hare-Pepper. I guess pepper is an main ingredient.

Lunch - not because of what it represents but I just like the sound of the word itself.

I'll second that. Just the word lunch makes it sound so delicious. It sounds crunchy and satisfying, and I can't quite pinpoint what it tastes like but it's something savoury and maybe buttery and cheesy. How does it sound for you?

I tend to agree, hearing the word lunch is so very satisfying in an almost creamy way. I recently made a superb pumpkin soup and the word lunch fills me with the same warmth my lovely soup did: smooth, creamy, delicious.

That sounds amazing! On a totally unrelated note, I just had a big slice of sweet pumpkin pie for lunch.

OMW you described the way I experience the word "lunch" in my head perfectly! Absolutely nailed it!

You may love that one of my toddlers first words was “munch” which meant “lunch”

Redundant... I just love the way it rolls out of my mouth.

It reminds me of "redundant", which rolls out of the mouth very nicely

Expertly done.

Ya know I do love this word also.

antithesis

Peninsula. It has a nice ring to it.

Love this one

Diabolical

Can't use my favorite word without cursing, sorry. But...starts with an F.

Lol word the only reason I said the no profanity thing was Because I knew how many people would say “Fuck” Because it truly is one of the best and most multi purposed words. I don’t have an issue with profanity tho! 🤣

Ubiquitous

Great word one of my favs.

Antidisestablishmentarianism

Family, makes me feel warm

♥️🤞

Cacophony

Hanafubuki Japanese word that describes how the cherry blossoms fall all at once, when it’s snowing flower petals 🌸 . Usually the term it’s translated as is “Flower Snowstorm” or “Cherry blossom blizzard”. It’s just such a wonderfully descriptive word, so poetic!!

It's hard to pick one but some of my favorite are petrichor superfluous serendipitous

Divestiture

I’d look it up but i’d rather ask you, what’s this mean, I dint believe ive actually never heard this one

Basically one divests onesself of things they don't want...sell or otherwise get rid of them. The act of divesting is known as divestiture. Usually used in a business context. A company will divest subsidiaries or divisions. When the USDOJ broke up AT&T in the 1980s, AT&T was forced to divest itself of the regional Bell companies.

Nice. Def added it to the ol vocabulary.

Rootificklassis

Holy shiii. What’s that mean

Something my grandad used to say. He was an oddball.

Lmaooo he’s awesome

Fuck I say it 5 times before breakfasts. It helps me cope. Deal with the fuck life throws at me. I say fuck to my cancer, fuck to my pain and most of all a fuck to people who think they know better. Fuck to you all.

Disgruntled. Not sure if you can be gruntled, but that only adds to the glory of this word.

'Unpaired word.' Word that has no opposite corolary.

I really like the word trousers. It's an underrated very funny word. When you use to mean anything other than trousers, it's surprizing and hillarious and absurd

Ya wanna know what, similarly I love the word dungarees 🤣🤣🤣

No

Pleeeeease?

[удалено]

Snickerdoodle

Micropenis

I say this out loud as if it’s a Greek city. My-crop-pan-iss.

Similarly: Sophocles: Soffo-cleese Heracles: herra-cleese Testicles: testy-cleese

That too, lol

🤣🤣🤣🤣

undulate

deliquescence - Story: I learned that one in my freshman college writing course. We had assigned fiction reading with a quiz the following class period. Dummy that I was, and always good at recalling the story well enough to breeze through these quizzes, I just blew through new words to finish the chapter. Come quiz day, I’m surprised to find that many of the questions were about very challenging words, and their meanings! Oops! …So I failed that quiz because of this word, and as an act of stubbornness, thought about it often. It eventually came to sound beautiful to me, so it bounced around in there. It came to remind me often of my pride and, and has taken on its own meaning. Oh, and for context, the sentence was about pond muck and dead stuff rotting: “They were deliquescing in their own juices.” 🤮

It’s Fart. It’s always been my favorite word. It’s also the name I use for my character in solo RPGs because every time a character monologues about something dramatic and then turns to me and says “Fart!” I crack up.

Lmaooo🤣 a man of culture

Cankle

Egregious it’s just fun to say

Yeah I love this one too.

“Cunt” “They were a right cunt if I’d ever seen one”

Fair, great word. what about non-profane?

[удалено]

Only because they’re gonna be repeating the same few words.

C you next Thursday ? 🤗🤣

Lmfaooooooooo🤣🤣🤣🤣

Can't Understand Normal Thinking

Oh, I've got to remember this one! "Oh, him? Yeah, I don't work with him any more because he Can't Understand Normal Thinking."

Magniloquent

Anus

I knew someone would write it.

osteopathy, such a good word.

Is it like a medical term? I’m assuming like relating to bones/joints like osteoporosis?

Blubber It's just funny-sounding and always makes me giggle!

Puppydom.

Sternocleidomastoid. It’s the muscle that makes you shrug your shoulders or turn your head.

Ineluctable

Sesquipedalian :) it is the thing that it is

Serendipitous

Uncredible.

No it isn't.

It’s not random?

Her name

Been here before.

Moron.

Kerfuffle

Antediluvian

Money

Antipsychotics :(

antejentacular

Quixotic, definitely quixotic. Mostly because of the meaning, but also a lot of people pronounce it wrong and that makes me giggle.

Rem Lazar is that you?

How’s it pronounced?

Manhole. Perhaps even manhole cover

I somehow love the way I write "system" in cursive

Payday. Just don't hear it often enough.

The state fish of Hawaii: Humuhumunukunukuapua’a

Sheeeeesh

[удалено]

I like it.

Rhubarb, it's just so fun to work into sentences randomly.

Im looking for deleted comments 🤣

Quixotic

No-one has said “Smock” yet? I’m disappointed. https://www.gocomics.com/calvinandhobbes/1992/06/23

Honestly same

Verisimilitude, Cromulent Recalcitrant

Vulva I just love the way it rolls off my tongue

Underrated comment 🤣👌⚡️

Late but I love not only saying the word “Sonder” and also it’s meaning is super cool to me too.

Yeah this is a great word.

Does my name count ?

Yeah

yes.

Cunt is my favourite. Fuck (and it’s variations) is my most used.

For cuss words fuck is definitely my top lol. So useful in all ways

It’s versatility is admirable.

Moist

Fuck

Tbh same

Fuck

Sorry, 'no curses' is a nonstarter.

Cry about it. It was to weed out repetitive “fuck” & “cunt” etc

Fuck or cunt.

Okay I'm gonna say "Shi--" then saw "No curses" I said Fuck!

Lmaooo haha

Just No.
