well, just for now

.......or derititives thereof.

...is pretty good. That might be a contender.

Least favourite : crutch

.

Dog's bollocks, oh bollocks, bollocking and several other made-up derivatives that don't mean anything but can be deployed to good effect.

.

but I currently like 'Flange'.

It should be adopted by all languages.

This will change next week.

That, and 'breasts'.

... or possibly 'ptarmigan'

... or 'postern'

... or 'sesquicentennial'

Crikey, there are so many super words, one's spoilt for choice.

And, if you're Irish, "gee".

Homophones.

abso-bloody-lutely love it

When my Grandad was disembarking from a troop ship at Dover at the end of WW1, he'd brought back various 'souvenirs', including a German machine gun, which he had slung over his shoulder, wrapped in a tarp.

When he got to a checkpoint he was asked by an MP what was under the tarp, to my Grandad answered "A thoedolite".

The MP didn't miss a beat, pointing to an enormous pile of rifles and machine guns to his left and saying "In that case please put it down with all those other theodolites."

Always makes me smile. Mind you, he still managed to keep hold of his pistol and bayonet, plus assorted tin helmets, artillery shells, and a grenade.

Good times, good times,

When spoken to me in an interrogative fashion.

Broken, useless, tired

"Not going out, I'm bandjaxed"

Possibly and perversely because I find it so difficult to pronounce.

Dreich - dull, drizzly, cold weather ( essential word for any Glaswegians out there! Applicable to all seasons ).
Glaikit - refers to someone who is not particulary bright ( akin to 'numpty' ).

Gerrymandering
Cahoots

has a certain charming pithiness which I relish.

Is a favourite of mine, don't know why.

On a more sentimental note, "Daddy" is always guaranteed to raise a smile when spoken by my daughter.

Brought up Catholic I was fascinated the first time I heard it in a mass . Or was I !

Least favourite goodbye.

Lovely words, both of which can be inveigled into conversation pretty easily. Hang on .... "inveigled" !

Works on so many levels.

... lascivious.

Just because it had be there or maybe it didn't but I'd miss it now if it wasn't there!

WE all love it!

Particularly when spoken by David Warner or Tom Baker.

.

Don't know why. But lately I love it. Sub-optimal is good too.

But only when said by Mr Mackay in Porridge!

Promulgate & Rubicund

All time Favourite: Flange

to an antiquarian bookseller asking for a job and he replied very gracefully, using the word 'alas' whilst telling me he had nothing to offer. Pretty old fashioned, but have always liked the word since then.

Victorian-era slang for a mistress or a harlot.

As once beloved of Paul Coia on 'Catchword' (it's not my favourite really...)

After Graeme Garden tossed some Scrabble tiles randomly onto a board, he yelped in pleasant surprise when they formed the word:

"Quinquagesimal!"

So that's my favourite.

I love the way it sounds.

What else?

And two in Italian: "boh" and "precipitevolissimevolmente".

as in "Arsenal nil"

/spyo͞om/

Noun: Froth or foam.

Verb: Form or produce a mass of froth or foam.

or, Clarts

cack has always been one of my favourite words closely followed by tosser.
Profanities aside I am quite partial to Cataract as in waterfall rather than an eye condition.

Fussarse if they get particularly tiresome!

Vulva.

Minge is a good word as well.

Clodge or Ambulance.

if you know what I mean..

= twilight.

Used in Somerset, and other parts of the south west.

Also: Daps - plimsoles, pumps.

And: Tacker - a child of primary school age. Toddler would be a Young Tacker...

From Latin palimpsēstus < Ancient Greek παλίμψηστος (palímpsestos, “scraped again”).

'The first word in this song is "discorporate" - it means to leave your body'

Frank Zappa and The Mothers Of Invention

Beautiful Ian Underwood piano solo for first 30 secs

...is my favourite word. If anyone ever uses it in conversation I immediately like tham a lot.

... has long been a favourite.

noun
1. sexual desire; lust.
2. ardent, usually sensuous, longing.

Also, I was just checking Dictionary.com to make sure I wasn't getting the meaning wrong when I saw the following advert:

What Men Want
Why Some Girls Have Men Begging To Be In A Relationship With Them
CatchHimAndKeepHim.com

It appears that the internet has gone back to the 60s.

As shouted in unison to Fleet Foxes at End of the Road a couple of years ago. It has made me smile ever since.
Maybe you had to be there.

As in some Wodehouse or other that I'll misquote from memory "There's nothing that offends a curate more than a crisp punch on the beezer". Also of course, comics of yore...

Mustn't forget winky. My mate Andy's young lad Matty came out with it one day when talking about his glass of orange juice. "It's a bit winky" as in it was a bit on the sharp side and made him do the one-eye thing. A fine word.

Used particularly for inanimate objects when they fight me - e.g. kitchen cupboard doors that open themselves over your heads whilst you're bent over.

"Oh you c***ish thing!"

It would have to be 'fuck' and all its derivatives. It's the Sammy Davis Jr of words - it can do just about anything.

Or "Free".

between "flap" and "lunge", but then again what doesn't

Sh*tepipe or Fudge Tunnel

you can find ot what it means here: http://www.thefreedictionary.com/patronising

Disingenuous mountebanks with their subliminal chicanery! A pox on them!

Nice word but I wouldn't want to catch it (again)

Lovely word, lovely plant.

but my happiness was unbounded to create a sentence containing the juxtaposition

'Gazebos akimbo'

Good morning, Cropredy campers.

Sean Lock's alternative to chugger (charity mugger)

Hard to work into conversations, though.

or,if you prefer,behoove.Lovely word seldom used.Let's keep it that way.

I am a great believer in Lubrication.

Things like Bergman's Autumn Sonata and Keats' Ode to Autumn make it all the easier to love.

.

a superficial likeness. (Could also be a re-creation of something that never was).

Conceptual

Ogenblikje (Dutch) - wait a moment (literally the blink of an eye) - also German - Ein Augenblick

Soi-disant - so-called or self-styled.

Orthodoxy

Persistence.

"Muuuuum!"

You can take the boy out of Aberdeen, etc etc

The stars aligned one day playing scrabble and I got to use all my 7 letters (there was a blank and the E was already on the board scrabble pedants).

.... is 'nuncupatory'. I think it means 'not relevant' and picked it up years hence when it was occasionally used by the author Jack Vance, the PG Woodhouse of science fiction and fantasy. Its kinda his calling card in a book. Here's a typical example - the protaganist Cugel, citizen of the Dying Earth, meets a fellow who says that he has four fathers, a comment that puzzles our hero. Later he meets this odd quartet, who it transpires have ran afoul of a wizard, resulting in them having only one eye, one ear, and one nose between them, which are transferable between them. Cugel asks them 'I have known many a man who has four children, but never a man with four fathers : how is such a thing possible?' There's an uncomfortable silence after which he is stiffly told : 'the question is nuncupatory'.

(... later on, 'the brothers tapped a flurry of messages back and forth, interchanging their single eye, ear and nose with swift precision. Cugel, watching, at last was able to hazard a guess as to how four fathers might sire a single son')

On another thread someone's just used 'cleft' - that's a pearler too!

Also love the genius of using "frack" and all it's variants
in Battlestar Galactica.

Gotta love a bilabial plosive.

I have a dictionary app on my iphone (great free app, BTW); every day it suggests a "word of the day". Today's is paralipsis:

"the suggestion, by deliberately brief treatment of a topic, that much of significance is being omitted, as in 'not to mention other faults'."

My mission is to get this word into a sentence in the coming week, without excessive use of the shoehorn.

it's good 'ol boy for 'crazy', as in 'the boy's skwerly'
