I think I tend to say “okay” quite a bit, unintentionally.

Any word that ends in -ia is a good word. Or has -ject- in it. Ephemeral is a cool one.
  • huck
  • scree
  • talus
  • osprey

I get happy if I get to use physics or chemistry jargon in non physics/chemistry conversations too.

Supercalifragilisiceticexpilidocious Always loved that word. At odd times I think of it, that and jabberwocky which I use all wrong but like to use anyway. When someone starts in on politics I say, you’re speaking all jabberwocky. That usually stops them.

A regular word I love is mummer.

"Tremendous". Not a lot of people really use this word though.

Nalgas. It’s a Spanish word for buttocks I learned from Facebook, of all places. Gumption is another favorite of mine.

Periwinkle...

Love the color, and the word just evokes feelings of happiness when spoken aloud!

Other Faves Include...

Pfenogulous / Magnificent / Spectacular / All The 🤬 Words

Oh!, And...

Pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis!

Thanks for this!
