I'm currently writing a book (very early stages) and would like some cool vocabulary. Just post your favorite word(s)!

mine: Vermilion (excellent, no?)

babbling
i love that word^^ i'm writing a book too and i've got a girl who's babbling all the time! hey speeches are always nearly half a page long my main character is hardly ever listening to her and she doesn't regognize that even though she's asking questions ... it's like: hey what are your plans for the weekend? i'm going shopping with the others from the team and perhaps you want to join us? we're going to the big mall. i need a dress for the dance next week. have you already bought a dress? i'm looking for a black one. oh, i look stunning in black....bla, bla, bla...

My favorite word ever is- parabola. I don't even like math, but I just love saying that word. Parabola, parabola, parabola, parabola.
I also really like the words- shrub, quite, and sophisticate.

equivocate
I am a terrible liar, and so when you are a young kid you have to find a way to not get in trouble. I would tell the truth in a way that led one to believe something else. My dad eventually caught on and called me a Master Equivocater, but I love that word. And it is way better than outright lying.

Cheers
Etcetera

Ha ha! That's my husband's favorite word too! Well, that and sherpa.

My favorite word is actually not a very used word, but it is real. The word is amn't, a contraction between am and not. For example, I amn't afraid of you.

And to think if I ever came across it when grading, I'd assume it was some sort of typo! That's a good one!

I love the following words:
circumlocutions
fenestration
bollards
vices
smitten
limpid
drivel

~Chivalry
~Hermione (name, not word, I know, but just say it! Hermione, Hermione, Hermione...)
~Crochet
~Mincemeat
~Omission
~Smiley

- Retrospect
- Retro
- Sally (name, I know, but it has such a nice ring to it)

I have a thing for retro!
