This is ONE OF 4 responses to VC 29 John 9 ("Twenty Words")...
It's hard to narrow down my favorite words to just twenty, but I'll try.
- penumbra
- conundrum
- macaroni
- paradox
- asphalt
- malarky
- Fellini
- asteroid
- noveleeny (not yet part of the common usage - from a NewYorker cartoon)
- avuncular
- jello
- dinosaur
- xyster
- fate
- plateau
- mirage
- mollusk
- svelte
- celebration
- commotion
Now that I've taken a stab at this list, I can see that it would be possible to establish different lists of words that are favorites for different reasons, like the sound of the words, the meaning or the novelty.
