Best word ever

What is the best word ever, why?

I am going to go for DALLIANCE.

 

Everything that begins with "D" automatically gets extra points in my books after The Sandman by Neil Gaiman.

"Ance" ending is a nice, sharp sound that just makes me happy in any word.

Words with double letters in them come off cool, in a pretentious kind of way. 'Cause we all know one letter is enough.

It's a kind of word that is practically made for double meanings, or a kind of word you'd purposefully use in the wrong context to get your point across.

It's part of the phrase "Dalliance with the Devil", which is an overly complicated way to express something simple. That's always awesome. And that has double Ds! Who doesn't like double Ds?

It's not a word you hear often, hasn't been overused.

 

 

 

Nice justifications. I agree, it's pretty good.

Behemoth is too good of a word for such petty usage =|

Anything from Stargate gets the same points as anything from The Sandman.

We'll assume your word is meaningless.

Incandescent. It flows off of the tongue, and simply sounds magical. The perfect combination of vowels and consonents.

 

Ethereal. The definition is embodied within the word itself.  Though, there's a relatively harsh stress in the beginning of the word, the ending seems to completely transiate to pure "angelic", etymological bliss. Quite lovely.

I think that initial stress you mentioned kills it for me.

the double Z - IT'S SUCH A DARING DOUBLE Z. I MEAN Z IS EDGY ENOUGH BY ITSELF, it just really gives it such an unapprehensive feel. and the snodge just feels so nice and snodgy. like you could just say snodge all day. snodge snodge.
