6. supercallifragilisticexpialidocious (Okay, so I don’t know if that’s how it’s actually spelled, and I don’t know if it counts as an actual word, but I love that word! It always brings a smile to my face!)

2. plethora (It reminds me of my days on the school newspaper staff when it was the coolest word to use in a story.)

3. transcendental (I love the word and its concept.)

4. prevarication (I like this word because it makes me laugh, because it’s only a sophisticated way of saying something is a lie. I don’t like dishonesty, but if I have got to read about it, then somehow expressing it with this word makes me smile.)
