Firstly, because it makes me think of beach huts and let's face it, who wouldn't want one of those? I imagine myself creating a mini art studio by the sea, painting all day while watched by nosy seagulls, then selling my works to wealthy tourists who flock to my beach just for my art! (Don't knock it... this is MY daydream!).
Secondly, it has bunting. Bunting is one of my all time favourite words. There's just something about it that conjures up Britain and parties in village halls and school fetes and second-hand car lots as it rolls off the tongue. I also like the word rhubarb. Go on, say it ... slowly mind ... let your tongue savour the tang of each syllable. Delicious eh?
My favourite place name is Ouagadougou (that's the capital of Burkina Faso). I seriously love exercising my cheek muscles over that one.
What are your favourite words?

Favourite word is tough but I will get back to you on that one... but I can tell you my least favourite word... bilious... or pustule... both creep me out totally, though I love using bilious when Phantom is around because it makes her face screw up and go funny...xx
ReplyDeleteI know...what is it about beach huts? I could quite happily live in one...favourite word...voluptuous has to be up there, though sphagnum (as in moss) is pretty awesome too :D XXX
