Words you love and hate the sound of

Ohhhh..never..you just reminded of another that is frequently mis-used.

It should be "enamoured of"...not "enamoured with" which I hear alot.
It's one of those phrases, when you are learning verbs, adjectives etc at school, that was used as an example and DRILLED into everyone in our class. I couldn't forget that if I tried
I'm pretty sure I misuse words at times. I guess we all do....

To be honest,...oops...! Sorry, Never. And you're right. That phrase, along with "I'm going to be honest with you..." makes me bristle. As does the word "pee." Must we?

of course the phrase "to be honest" is about the stupidest phrase ever devised (unless maybe you're WTF and you are trying to get real for once).

You know, winch.
Winch and Wynch. Doesn't anyone else think that "Wynch" is just a really odd word for flaking out/not following through? It sounds wierd.

Ugh! I agree! I had a college BioChem professor who used to say "New-que-lore" and it...drove..me...up..the...wal l!

I also cannot stand "cunt", "wad", and "p*ssy". That last one gets me...I just don't like the sound at all!

On the other hand, I love the sound of "succulent" and "silken". They just ooze sensuality without being overtly nasty. LOL. Originally Posted by Nina Rae

I asked for a dollop of whipped cream on my espresso at Smith and Wollinski's Grill in Manhattan and people on either side of me started rolling the word around, playing with it, using it as a verb. For some reason that word got everyone going.

Here's one, I am neutral on the word, word but when worded as an affirmation after a quote it sounds kinda dumb to me, not the word, the wordee, +1 too btw. (Cameo is the only one that can pull word up off)
