It sounds silky....
 

resplendent

I really like the way it sounds, but I don't particularly like the way the letters look together.

say it. for what it defines it sure sounds sultry.

"copacetic"

I just remember when everyone used to say that then smile benignly as if there was nothing more to be said.

"loathe"

"I loathe you" ... so smooth, so languidly venomous, so much more deeply cutting than "I hate you". The trick is to say it slowly with a straight face after a long pause.

Scram.

Colorful, succinct, and direct, but in the most playful way possible. It has a cartoonish quality about it that I really like. This is one of my favorite words of all time. Anyone who uses this word in everyday conversation scores mad points with me, lol; especially if they get the intonation just right. :)

effortless

"gefilte"... makes some people shudder; makes some people smack their lips

Words that paint a picture are my favorites.
 

Hardscrabble.

When I hear this word used, I picture sad faces from the Dustbowl and a stark backdrop of barren land.

I love this word not just for the imagery it evokes, but also because it can be used in a hyperbolic way; and I love dramatic language a lot.

Also, falderol is one of my most favorites of all and I get teased often and a lot of blank stares about using it in everyday conversation, but I will never stop saying it. :)

Scran = Food: UK, generally north eastern/Geordie

Arpeggio.

I like the way it sounds and, in this word, the occurrence of double Gs. I love double Z words, but other than that I am not really a huge fan of double consonants.

Arpeggio is an amber-colored word with little effervescent bubbles (kind of like champagne or a lightly-colored draught beer) in my mind. I also enjoy how the double Gs make a J sound together.

I don't care for the aesthetics of the letters together; it has too many vowels in it; but I like the visuals of the word as I hear it spoken.

Pork

Not sure why but that word has always made me smile when I say it.

"bucolic"

What an unfortunate word. Is Bucolic Plague a spoonerism or a malapropism?

I have not heard that before!

Bucolic is such a lovely word, vs. Bubonic plague!
