Writer's Block: It Sounds Better When You Say It

[Error: unknown template qotd]
Ooh, boy... do *not* ask the Tolkien language geek this question! ;D

I'd have to say, almost any word in Quenya or Sindarin. Top favorites include mar "home", luin "blue", aeglir "mountains" (literally "spear-points"), Sulimo "Lord of Winds", tintilar "twinkle" (verb), oiale "forever", Tarmenel "high heaven", Remmirath "Netted Stars" (the Pleiades), ithil "moon", and falmalinnar "foaming waves". And I'm only stopping because I decided it would be ridiculous to do more than ten.

Dwarvish is good, too. Kheled "mirror", for instance. "Dark is the water of Kheled-zaram, and cold are the springs of Kibil-nala, and fair were the many-pillared halls of Khazad-dum in Elder Days before the fall of mighty kings beneath the stone!" And Old English... why is sceadufax so much cooler than "Shadow-mane"?

Okay, one more in Elvish. My absolute favorite: untupa, "covers", literally "down-roofs". What an image!
