Cellar Door ... phonetically...lord of the rings type sound.

But nothing beats ... LISP.
Who was the cruel bastard that put the giveaway right in the word.

The most beautiful words are..."The test came back and it is not yours".

"Whose test was it?!" And "What happened to mine?!"




(Not so beautiful. Scholastically speaking.)

One word when spoken by my granddaughter...papa. Melts my heart.

YES and "Survivor" (for 32 years) rings my bell.

I agree with you and my oncologist has said those words to me. Unfortunately it dd not last long after I stopped taking the anti-cancer pills. The good news is that after they resumed giving me the pills, the cancer has seem to have gone into an even more complete remission. I don't care if I need to take the pills for the rest of my life; they work.

Another beautiful word is "cellar door."

The worst words are,
Some penicillin will fix that right up.
Run, my husband isn’t supposed to be home yet!
If that wasn’t the refried beans, then what was that I just are?


At this stage in my life...I also am 'just are'.

One of my favorite words, sounding and meaning, is serendipity. Interesting that most of the words on this list have the "s" sound including c's and cy's. Something about sssssssssss that quiets the soul (if it's not air escaping from a tire)

Worst word/phrase in perspective: In golf --- You're still away. In brain surgery --- Oops.

You beat me to it. I was going to add this word. It's the name of my daughter's Air B&B and I always thought it sounded nice. A few words not on the list that could have been in my opinion: Tamarind, Alluvial, Shimmer
