QUOTE(Siriusly Snape Obsession @ Aug 27 2007, 02:14 PM)  My favourite words *emphasis mine*Cynical Anxious Awesome Elfish Ressurection Buzzing Irksome (I love this as when I say it to people my age they go "Eh? What?" Because no one my age I know reads!) Git (This has multiplied from reading Harry Potter) Wotcher (I use this all the time, people my age don't get because they don't read so they've obviously only seen the films!) Definately, I now use git more than ever because of Harry Potter, and very few people know what it means.  -------------------- "If you believed as he did.

Git-from my Harry Potter obsession...use it all the time and no one really understands
pfeffernuss-one of my spelling bee words last year, and I think it's really cool  Pronouced fef-ur-noosOy-fun word poodle-another fun word that makes a fun phrase when paired with Oy: "Oy with the poodles already!" (Basically means ENOUGH ALREADY!)

QUOTE And a bunch of other, inappropriate words.  Kinda the same here...  And then I say stupid, hp, and a lot of other stuff... one of my favorite phrases, especially to say really randomly, is "Brits Rule!" just because I'm in LOVE with EVERYTHING British!

I looooove saying the word badinage. Bah-deh-nawshhhh (well, roughly). And I like saying ennui and kerflummexed. But words that I use often. . . honest[ly], ridiculous, violate. . . there's more but I'm having a brain-fart right now.
You know a word that looks like it's fun to pronounce but isn't really? Connexion. But it's just a different way to spell 'connection'. Those tricksters. Know what a strange word is in the English language? Phlegm. Why have the 'g' in there? And why the 'ph' at the beginning? It could easily be spelt 'flem', but nooooo. Not for us English speakers. We have to add the silent 'g'. Sheesh. *edited to add kerflummexed, connexion, and phlegm* This post has been edited by MonieLou: Aug 27 2007, 06:40 PM -------------------- "I know who Harry Potter is.

hmm....at the moment...
Squeefull CherriOwls Storm Revelstoke Pickles Minx Hippieness (and adding 'ish', 'ness', and 'y' to a lot of words...like Potterness and Tonksish and Hufflepuffy) Dramione (lol...I don't ship them, I just like the word) and random names of NZ towns that I can't spell...like Wanganuoi and Pahia...both spelled very wrong, I'm sure. QUOTE Know what a strange word is in the English language? Phlegm. Why have the 'g' in there? And why the 'ph' at the beginning? It could easily be spelt 'flem', but nooooo. Not for us English speakers. We have to add the silent 'g'. Sheesh. You know...up until now I thought it was pronounced 'flegm' in HBP....I'll add that to the rest of the Potter words I mispronounced, like Ginny, Sirius, Animagus, and Metamorphmagus.... --------------------   ♫ = ♥ Pirates by theonlysong, Tonks by lizetm Donna/'The Doctor' by me |
