My
two favourite words are "ramekin" and "galangal". They sound so delightful to my ear, and their definitions obviously stir a couple of other senses too.
A more recent contender currently watching from the sidelines is the word "synecdoche". I remember first seeing it as the title for a
Charlie Kaufman film (which I have not yet seen), and I like
what it is. If I raised its status though it would only make it a trinity, and not
replace either of the triumphant two.
RrrrrrrAMekin. GA-LAN-GAL! Mmmmm...
Cheers,
Marc
