That's the catchword!

To me, one of the most beautiful words has to be "affinity". However, I
don't really know why - I usually don't like the /f/ sound that much.
The literal german translation ("Affinität") sounds even better to me.

My French vocabulary still is *very* limited, but from the words I've
encountered so far, I somehow have an affinity <g> for "justement".
