Favorite Words?

<< < (7/10) > >>

Danielle/Evie:
Ever since I was little I've been fasinated with "furious" and "fury". I find it wicked fun to say and write

Belial:
favorite words eh... hrm.

There's always Reave/reft. Sunder is good too.

But other than stuff like that, hrm. Malicious(ly). Flare, flare is a good one.

Hrm... this is depressing... apparently a lot of the characters that i write about aren't very nice people  ::)

Oh wait, i got one, Seraphim... Seraphim is a nice wholesome word. And i even use it from time to time. *grins*

Qualapec:
I like to use the word "sinewy" when describing somebody that has little or no fat on their bones, and is in great shape but isn't exactly buff.

~She-Wolf

Akimbo:
One of my favourite words is (forgive spelling) discombobulated.  Don't know what it means precisely but it's something my Dad says when things go wrong. 

Random is another good one.  I have a friend who uses it constantly throughout conversation and it always makes me smile.

I also like the word bizarre, I always want to put an exclamation mark after it.

Benchleyfan:
Not sure this really fits the category, but I recently was reading one of Glen Cook's Garrett Files and loved it when Garrett described Tinnie Tate as a "professional redhead".  It just tickled me.  Ok, tickle is a good word.  So is askew.   (That just popped into my head.)  Anyway, I'm going on very little sleep so I hope this made sense.
