I have to see that film, wonder if it's in the DVD bangs.

JRR Tolkien wrote:

"Most English-speaking people, for instance, will admit that cellar door is 'beautiful', especially if dissociated from its sense (and from its spelling). More beautiful than, say, sky, and far more beautiful than beautiful. Well then, in Welsh for me cellar doors are extraordinarily frequent, and moving to the higher dimension, the words in which there is pleasure in the contemplation of the association of form and sense are abundant."

--JRR Tolkien. English and Welsh. Lecture, October 1955.

LOL I am actually busy today but may switch the pics later today. (Figured that'd be a fairer compromise than taking up large amounts of bandwidth with my obnoxiousness.) Very Happy

most words with a double consonant, as it is unnatural to pronounce.


Would that include "����"? My least favourite word Mad . "�ٺ�" is a close second. Way overused by the kiddies.


I mean the 'ssang' consonants. I hate almost spitting out the sound. Especially the d and the k ssang consonants. They suck.

i can't write Korean on my computer.....but i hate this word:


Aieeesh....Ja jing na!


it means like.........ahhhhhhhh annoying.

or something along the lines.


Sorry to be on the opposite side, but ¥���� just happens to be my favorite Korean word. I like its rhythm and I often say it jokingly just for a laugh.

�׶��� and �׺� and ��û�� however, are ones I dislike.
