    Boob just because it shows how boobs look from the three main perspectives: top, straight on, and profile.

    Always dug the word “queue” you only pronounce the first letter and the rest of them are just waiting in line all tidy.

      I also find deque satisfying. Pronounced deck. It is a term in computing referring to a double ended queue.

      The word queue is made up of a queue of vowels. It’s pronounced exactly the same as its first letter. It’s beautiful.

    Pretty much any Arabic calligraphy.

    I went to a museum in Morocco that was specifically showing Arabic calligraphy in the shape of trees or people or other common objects and was absolutely blown away.

    Indelibly printed on my mind.

    I saw saw Arabic calligraphy and I was like oh s*** they got the written word correct.

      I tried learning Arabic once, because it’s such a beatiful language. I wasn’t very good at it, but i understand a bit of how it can be such an artistic language.

        I really liked listening to the call to prayers they play through the cities, although the first time they played aloud, I was very worried at what sounded like Divine Revelation ridinog through the alleyways while I was walking around, like some Gabriel trumpet s*** breaking the city apart until I realized it was just the call to prayer.

        It was this loud rumbling “aaaaaaaaaaaaAaAaAaAAaAAAAAAAA” to begin saying “Allah” and I was very confused and worried for the drawn out 20 seconds or so it took to complete the first syllable.

    “Minimum” is quite nice, particularly in calligraphy where it’s just a bunch of vertical lines

      The most german thing is to read that no problem at the first try. But our language is cheating with the combining words thing.

        Dutch does that but there are limits. Four, five, six words smashed together?! Doe normaal! Germans… always going a bit too far… 😉

          Yeah laws or very specialized tools/Maschines can get crazy, but I think our lawmakers are also trolling sometimes with the long titles.

    In Romanian, the word “lalelele” is perfectly correct.

    Ever since I saw it written down I’ve been trying to decide if I love it or hate it.

      I like the sound of anything in Spanish with a trilled r.

      Like perro 🐶.

      Mañana is nice sounding too.

    “Slyly” actually kind of bothers me a little due to how it looks.
