Of course, being English, we can always just use "gezellig" enough that it eventually becomes an "English" word (that is, makes it into the OED  ).

i also vote that we start using "gezellig" in english, it seems like a fine word, and i have in the past been somewhat at a loss for a good equivalent of "on est bien ici" so i'll be pleased to have it.
