Splash. Lovely connotations, onomatopoeic, generally denotes fun times.
Also onomatopoeia. All of the vowels just about sum up how absurd English is.  Any other words with twice the number of vowels than consonants? And, no, you can't say 'EAT' or 'MOO'; no way are single syllable words as awesome. |
