your favourite word in the english language?

was just wondering, as my mate got asked for his portfolio to get into LJMU for english, what his favourite word was and why. he said "haberdashery"

now it got me thinking what my fave is, and after much consideration, is the word "ephemeral" because it sounds so hippy and reminds me of my crazy englih teacher who taught it to me (she is actually a ledgend in my area lol)

so, what's yours?

It sounds odd, but "cake". It helps that I love cake, but I think its a nice word.
