Boob just because it shows how boobs look from the three main perspectives: top, straight on, and profile.
That’s very immature but very accurate
There’s nothing immature about boobs, my friend. Quite the opposite in fact.
What I mean is that I laughed about this when I was twelve. I still do, but I also did when I was twelve.

Speaking of which:
When you articulate the word “poop”, your mouth makes the same sequence of shapes your anus does when you poop.
Same with “explosive diarrhea”
Naw, that one more closely aligns with that really long German word in one of the other posts here.
Found the commenter who poops on a mirror.
You don’t have a poop mirror?
Don’t knock it till you’ve tried it.
No, I’d say it’s fully cooked.
When in all lowercase letters the word
bed
Looks like a bed.
syzygy
Yeah, love it. very similar vibe, with all the y’s.
Also Gypsy, Myth, Glyph
Words where Y is the only vowel are satisfying.
I discovered this word while reading the three body problem and I thought it was made up lol
It was an episode of the X-Files for me
For me, it was Destiny 2!
The OA season 2 for me lmao
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.

I think bookkeeping is a nice, woody word, both visually and spoken
and the only english word that has 3 sets of repeating letters back to back afaik
Someone remembers their Encyclopedia Brown!
Ah yes, the woody sort of words
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 like how the Arabic word for ape is the same word that they use for monkey, but the artist cleverly drew one with a tail, and one without.
Very cool find, I would not have noticed that unless you mentioned it.
Thanks
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
According to Matt of Stand up maths, minimum is the most satisfying word to type on a keyboard.
Which leads him to do some maths on keyboard based words: https://youtu.be/Mf2H9WZSIyw?si=BYKSOKHktbUkvpjB
This is what I came here to say. A couple of years ago there was a trend on the fountain pen subreddit of videos of people writing minimum. It is quite fun and satisfying to write.
German always looks great.
My favourite?

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

It looks like headphones. Nicely symmetrical.
Hungarian “dob” for drum looks like three drums and two sticks over them
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.
What does it mean?
It’s the plural of “lalea”, meaning “tulip”
It actually means “the tulips”, with the determinate article, like this:
- Tulip = Lalea
- Tulips = Lalele
- The tulips = Lalelele
I suppose it’s a loose translation of covfefe.
All I can imagine reading this is just Patrick Star
“Slyly” actually kind of bothers me a little due to how it looks.

Three tittles in a row.
Hey man, nice tittles
Cyrillic cursive takes that shape to an extreme. No tittles though.
I love the word acquiesce. It just looks classy and elegant (even though the word doesn’t mean anything like it)
English:
- Obelisk
- Aptitude
- Hamfisted
- Obstreperous
- Peace
Spanish:
- Zapata
- Dos veces
French:
- Pamplemousse
I like the sound of anything in Spanish with a trilled r.
Like perro 🐶.
Mañana is nice sounding too.
I love the eñe (Ñ) in my mother tongue. And I hate when it gets written and pronounced as N. It’s Zoë Saldaña, people!

I don’t think there’s any words that “look handsome” though what I was a kid, the first time I read the word “gobbledygook” I could not stop laughing for at least 5 minutes. Then I had to go look it up in a dictionary (because that was the style at the time).
