What is your favourite word in the Americano/English language?

Come to think of it, isn't 'lurk' a great word?

That's easy for you to say!

The word "Love" has gone many many miles. I don't know if it my favorite but it's a good "classic"

I have been waiting for some comment on it but I don't think many people recognize what my sig says or where it is from. I blame the sorry state of cultural education in the English speaking world!

Edit: And now no signatures show up. Man will this confuse people. My signature was:
Wenn ist das Nunstruck git und Slotermeyer? Ja! ... Beiherhund das Oder die Flipperwaldt gersput.

What does your signature mean anyway? Has a bit of German in it, that's all I could notice...

Yes, I got my German speaking father on to this and he couldn't quite make it out. Of course, you could keep it a mystery, which will add a little fission of excitment to this thread .

However, what is the providence of your handle, Lurk?

Wenn ist das Nunstruck git und Slotermeyer? Ja! ... Beiherhund das Oder die Flipperwaldt gersput.

I made out: When is the something something and something? Yes!.. the beerdog(?) or something something.

As you can probably tell I speak fluent German..


My favourite word is cushty. I'm not sure if it features in the dictionary, probably not but I've loved the word ever since I first heard it used on Only Fools And Horses years ago.

Good work - I'm Austrian and speak fluent German too and still couldnt figure it out ...

Well, I cheated.

Search for "Wenn"

(And I hope you were just joking about the lack of cultural education thing; I don't really see where this would fit into "Important European History" )
