Re: What's your favorite sounding word in any language?

My favorite is probably the Danish word "marmalade" for the way that it
shows off the intervocallic allophone of /d/ in the Danish
language.  Sorry, no transcription available, because the sound is so
unusual that there isn't any standard (nor, prehaps, any non-standard)
transcription of it.
