Having been working against in the last few days on some new England-land Word of the Week material for the
GFF Talk Radio show, I reminded myself how much I enjoy certain words, and how there are some words I tend to use a lot, though not always knowingly. "Random" is something I'm guilty of using with reasonable frequency, and I found when writing my
7 year GFF-a-versary thread that I kept wanting to write the word "ace".
Then there are words I just like to use, such as "missus", "piffle", "bonkers", "blimey", "squire" and probably others I can't think of right now. Words that I relish the opportunity to drop into proceedings. And I'm wondering if I'm alone (I'd wager that I am not).
So, what are some of your favourite words, or words you find yourself saying a lot?
Has anyone ever pointed out to you that you say a word or phrase a lot? I've had that before and I kept catching myself saying whatever I'd been picked up on.
Jam it back in, in the dark.
