I watched Wonderama as a kid, too! That's a fun word on its own.

Did you ever want to get on Wonderama? I used to like the dance parts, and the "Good News" part.

My brother was lucky enough to watch the Sonny Fox version. We watched the Bob McAllister version---which I guess was more "kid-centered", but not as "smart," in general as the Sonny Fox version.

Another word I learned on Wonderama was "Aardvark." "Does anybody here got an aardvark?"

The french word for alone: "seul". It sounds a bit like the norwegian and danish word "sølv"(maybe the norwegian pronunciation is closest?)which means silver. I also like the english words "moon" and "father" but also mother/b(r)other/other/feather/heather...it is something about the -th sound.

And "lusitano" and other "luci-/lusi-words.

And also lately the words mercury and cobalt.

I usually find words from other languages than my own to be nice or interesting to pronounce.
