I love the word "Hauser" (mit Umlaut :D) in German (houses)
It's so much fun to say oh and Freunde! I guess I like the "oy" sound... :D 1 person has voted this message useful | |

Relating to the first post, I find the English word "Asshat" awesome to say, mainly because it's so utterly random in my mind. =D
I also like the Slovak word "davaj" I always feel so badass when I say it ahahaha 1 person has voted this message useful | |

I like the word "concoction" in English. I also like the fact that you can express your loathing for something simply by saying "f**k [fill in the blank]!" Often it makes me laugh.

My favorite word in English has to be "tempestuous". I don't really know why, but I think it's because all the sounds come from the front of your mouth, so it just rolls off the tongue.
In Spanish, I like any world with the Castillian lisp in it (ie. hacer, conozco, zapatos) 1 person has voted this message useful | |

In Russian благодарю вас! (blagodar'yu vac- thank you, more formal and heartfelt than spasibo) said very loudly
and enthusiastically. Естественно (yestestvenno- naturally) is one of my favorites right now. I like French "Sacre blieu!!!" yelled very loudly and sincerely. I believe this is possible, albeit difficult to do. German einzige and weltanshauung English "purveyor," and "liege." 1 person has voted this message useful | |

In Russian slang, the word " заебись" which translates roughly to "f**king great" or, "f**king awesome".
