As in, “He was absolutely besotted by the very sight of her, yet she paid him no mind.”

You have to work to get it out properly. Its almost like an ‘amuse guele’. It’s simply fun.

I love the it rolls off of my tongue. It also elicits many questions from my students as to it’s meaning. I encourage them to look it up and come back later and tell me what it means. Since I teach band I quite often experience tintinnabulations.

I just love the way the word kind of rolls off the tongue. It’s almost instrumental.

It’s such a light word, involving such delicate tongue movements. It makes me think of brightness and lightness/airy-ness — like sun through clouds, “angel ladders”. Very pretty!

You can’t think about what this actually is when you’re saying it … just think about the word! It reminds me of Shakespeare for some reason … like Prospero, except more Italian-sounding.
