Favorite Words

Yes, I have favorite words.  Words are my thing.  If I am ever in a conversation with someone and they are hesitating or searching for the word, I will usually offer a suggestion.  Usually others take the word I put out there because it's just the right word.  It's my gift.

  1. diminish - I won't diminish her value...
  2. supper - This word just sounds more friendly than dinner.
  3. done - This word rarely happens in my life, but I still like it
  4. Sense of Place - Eudora Welty initiated this idea in literature as she offered reasons for connections people had with the South
  5. emerge - As in 'what emerged from the data' or ' what emerges from that exchange'
  6. champion (used as a verb)
  7. celebrated (used as an adjective)
