avident Posted October 30, 2009 Report Share Posted October 30, 2009 I know this is nerdy and all but I think it's really interesting to learn about people's favorite words! It's a great way to build one's vocabulary, too! So how about I start:My favorite word is loquacious. Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adoran Posted October 30, 2009 Report Share Posted October 30, 2009 Epitome. Mainly because me and my friends have been using it in Norwegian essays even though our teacher claims it's not a Norwegian word (Most complicated words are exactly the same in Norwegian and English). She corrects it every time. Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
