Calentego (cal-in-tae-goh)
a word I made up about 4 or 5 years ago, but have not applied a direct meaning to it. I guess thats the joy of it, it might be a name or a verb or adjective, I have yet to know

Pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis

"A lung disease caused by the inhalation of fine silica dust causing severe inflamation"

45 letters long and said to be the longest word in an English Language Dictionary, if you can find me one longer I'd love to know. I'm somewhat of a collector of useless information

I just like it cause of the look of terror people have on their faces when you say it or ask them to read it out

Flaps. Never fails to make me giggle.

Also, seconding 'rapture' from earlier in the thread.

Schnauzerwerfer.

A word of my own creation, Schnauzer being a breed of dog and 'werfer' the German word for 'thrower'.

Just say it. Shh-nowzer-verfer

Well, normally it would be Marauder.

But lately it's love
(Cue the D'awwwwwww)

EDIT: But if I make a band, it's sure as hell not going to be called 'love'.

Ah, I don't really have. I like some archaic words, but purely because no one knows them, and they have queer spellings. I also like to use words that've been corrupted into something foul, like "queer" and "gay" etc., and use them with that other meaning that these words have, besides derogatory nicknames for homosexuals.

Also, indeed. It is indeed a mighty fine word. Indeed.

And fuck. It's awesome. You can add emphasis with it (thus magnifying the intended effect). You can sound angry with it, more amused with it, a badass with it, or even just a rude and tactless dirtbag.

It's such a great word.

My favorite word is "fisticuffs". I love to say, "I hope you are practiced in your pugilism, for it is time for a rousing bout of fisticuffs! Put up your dukes!"
I also like words that mean "evil", like "Malevolent" and "Nefarious". They just drip of the tongue... very sinisterly.
