What is the most fun word to say?
Edited on Tue Jan-17-06 08:55 PM by Heaven and Earth
"Wench" is pretty fun to say, IMHO.

26. When my son was 4 or 5 he thought vagina was a funny word
I was teaching him the correct name for his body parts and he asked me where my penis was. I told him that I didn't have a penis and that girls had a vagina. He thought that was the funniest sounding word he'd ever heard and he repeated it over and over again, no matter where we were, for months. In the supermarket checkout line, anywhere and for absolutely no reason, he'd just pop up and say VAGINA,VAGINA,VAGINA real loud and then laugh and laugh.

30. Young boys find the word "underpants" fun.
My son however likes me saying the word "grumpy gills" in a lower pitched voiced (like the fish Dory says to Marlin in the film "Finding Nemo"). It completely makes him laugh for some silly reason. As long as he's happy then I'm OK.

Mark.

32. There's a British word I like
it's "chuffed" or is it "chufft?" I guess it means greatly satisfied or proud. It's a cool word. Another Brit word I like is "twee." If I figured it out correctly, it sort of translates into pathetic, lame, cheap or kitschy.

46. Definitely cool
I also find the word "gobsmacked" without equal in American English. I guess "flabbergasted" is close, but it doesn't have the same imagery attached to it.

54. A small note of caution:
Edited on Thu Jan-19-06 11:24 AM by Monkey see Monkey Do
"chuff" is slang for vagina! (what the etymology there is, I have no idea).

edit - oh and also if you say "I just chuffed" it means you farted.

70. chuff does not mean a vagina ...
I'm British and that's a new one on me and I've heard a few terms over the years. I think someone was winding you up.

you're right about the farting definition.

75. I certainly used it as that when I was younger & the online British
Edited on Fri Jan-20-06 08:07 AM by Monkey see Monkey Do
slang dictionary has it:

chuff

Noun. 1. Rubbish, nonsense. E.g."That film was boring, too long, and generally just total chuff."
2. The anus.
3. The vagina.
4. A passing of wind from the anus, a 'fart'.
Also used as a euphemism for 'fuck' in expressions such as the denial - "Did I chuff!"
Verb. To break wind. E.g."She chuffed just as we were saying grace before dinner"

http://www.peevish.co.uk/slang/c.htm

On TV, Richard Herring on "Fist of Fun" used to do a routine about shagging a gnat & how "a gnat's chuff is literally as tight as a gnat's chuff." I think "Smack the Pony" used it too.
