Any language goes, and so does any reason for liking them - pronunciation, looks, meaning.

I used to really like the word "chrysanthemum." I don't even remember why. shrugs

@ninja_violinist

Two of mine (I like the definitions):
Kummerspeck [German] Excess weight gained from emotional overeating. Literally "grief bacon".
Onism [from the Dictionary of Obscure Sorrows] The frustration of being stuck in just one body that inhabits just one place at a time.

I just love the word crepuscular

I also named a spaceship in one of my sci-fi universes Hope of Dawn and I really just love that phrase.

@Celestial-B

Some I like-

Limerence - the state of being infatuated with another person
Iridescent - Showing luminous colors that seem to change from different angles
Ethereal - Extremely delicate or light that seems to perfect for this world
Epiphany - a moment of sudden realization
Sonder - The realization that each passerby has a life as vivid and complex as your own
Luminescence - The emission of light by something that has not been heated
Oblivion - the state of being unaware of what is happening around you
Effervescent - Giving off bubbles; fizzy

@CWTurtleOfFreedom

I like the words puffball and bubble because it is really hard to say them when you’re mad

@ravens

I like tapestry because it's red and gold and purple and its shape looks cool and it sounds cool

@ravens

(I have synesthesia. For me the word isn't actually colored, I just think that if this letter had a color this is what it would be. Also, the letters form shapes and it's hard to explain but the words look like their meaning.)

I often contemplate words like spinach and pajamas. They're so weird. Spin-age?
Words that I think are cool are fictional ones. I don't know why, they're just so original.
