Happy, funny or beautiful words.

[Anonymous]

How many wonderful words can we all come up with. 

Words that feel good when we say them, type them, hear them.

Some words just sound really good to the (my) ear, like Tranquillity or Delicacy.

Other words just sound funny to me, like Smithereens or Hodgepodge.

And there are many just happy words like Twinkle or Cosy.

Can you add some?

It's in the lyrics to "Maria" from the Sound of Music:-

"How do you solve a problem like Maria?
How do you catch a cloud and pin it down?
How do you find a word that means Maria?
A flibbertijibbet! A will-o'-the wisp! A clown!"

Harry...talking to my granddaughter today, I was telling her about this thread and I asked her if she had any favourite words. She said 'No Nan..I haven't.. but I do have a word I don't like. Whenever someone says this word, it makes me cringe...I can't even say it, but I can write it for you. I said 'OK then...go on!' So she did...and the word is..

'MOIST'

I laughed my socks off...I just don't get it!!
