Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious is my fravorite word too! (although, I can't spell it without copying and pasting ;))
Mod
(2 diferent spellings)
Pronounced as you'd say the first one.
It means fingers.
I can sing supercalifragilisticexpieliadocious...
Mod
"Get your felangies of my book!" is really weird...
FELANGIES FELANGIES omg I love that word
haha I love sayin frugal(i have no idea what it means)
i think tarradiddle is cool. it menas a little lie or fib.
I think all these words can make a falangage.[fantastic language:]!I say this everytime ''awesome blossom''.
Hahaha. I was just reading that and I was like "Awesome blossom? That's really...uh..random." but then I said it and it RHYMES!!! Ha.

agreed
Obsequious is my FAVORITE word.... I go out of my way in everyday conversation just to use it.I like felonious as well.
And then there are places whose names are kinda fun to say... Like Sarajevo (capital of Bosnia and Herzegovina), and Reykjavik (capital of Iceland) and for some reason, Saskatchewan (province in Canada).
Oooh, serendipitous is fun.... Especially when you emphasize (another fun one) the middle, like serenDIPitous!I've noticed that lots of the words I like to say end in -ous.
Irksome and lest. But I have many many more...
Like I said.... Obsequious. Best word ever. You can insult someone without them having any idea.Felionious is fun to say especially if you say it the way my history teacher says it.... Same with lascivious.
Irk. That's a great one.
I get the dictionary.com word of the day. It has fun words...
Conglomeration is the best word in the world!!!!!
That's a good one... I also like "defenestrate". :)
bubbles. just cuz if u say to the right person, it cracks them up for no. reason.
You just have to use the right inflection when saying "bubbles". It makes anything fun when you add the word "bubbles". ;)
yurt: it's like a tepee or something like that. I like saying it.

conspitious is an awesome word.

Piccadilly is cool! (or piccalilli, which sounds very similar, but has a completely different meaning )Hannah wrote: "i like hippopotomonstrosesquippedaliophobia
or pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis"
Isn't that first one the fear of long words?
Yes, it is. Which is the funniest thing EVER to me, seeing how long it is.
Taylor wrote: "Yes, it is. Which is the funniest thing EVER to me, seeing how long it is."Exactly! I love that word.
The agendas our school gives out have random facts in the, one per week, and that was one. (did you know that there's a fear of your tongue sticking to the roof of your mouth from peanut butter? or that phobotrivaphobia is the fear of trivia about phobias?)
I used to love them, but then it told me that "rhythm" was the longest word in the English language without a vowel, which isn't true ("y" can be a vowel), so now i don't trust it anymore. :(
Sorry about the rambling.
that's cool. there's a list of phobias on the internet it's amazing!! :P
Yep, I heard about the peanut butter one... There's also triskadekaphobia (fear of the number 13) and paraskevidekatriaphobia (fear of Friday the 13th).
my favorite is the one that means fear of phobias, that and fear of long words :P
Wow. There are so many good phobia words (and so many strange fears)
Geniophobia- fear of chins
Hippopotomonstrosesquipedaliophobia- feara of long words
Hobophobia- fear of hobos
Phobophobia- fear oh phobias
Aerophobia- fear of swallowing air
spectrophobia- fear of seeing self reflection
I love the fear of hobos! So funny!

that's exactly what i said to my friends when i read that in my agenda. then they just told me to go back to preschool. silly people, i was right.
I like supercalifragilisticexpialidocious (mainly because I know how to spell it) and when I was in fifth grade I loved the word Frankly so much I named a stuffed animal after it! haha
