The most beautiful and unusual words in the English language

Using words that are pleasant to the ear makes speech more melodic and smooth. Beautiful words attract attention, sometimes even imperceptibly to the listener. Many speakers try to use euphonious words in their speeches to hook the audience. Oddly enough, it always works. Therefore, beautiful English words have a place not only in fiction, but also in everyday speech.

Today we will talk about what words are considered beautiful in English, how they are translated and what they mean. As a bonus, we will learn unusual words that are used by foreigners in everyday speech and have no analogues in the Russian language.

Beautiful words in English with translation

Many foreign words sound beautiful and pleasant both for native speakers themselves and for those who hear them from outside. It is these mellifluous [meˈlɪfluəs] words, that is, mellifluous words, that we will study today. nine0003

In 2004, over 40,000 people were surveyed to find out which English words they found most euphonious. The survey involved people for whom English is not their native language. Here are the 10 words that topped the list:

  • Mother [ˈmʌðə(r)]
  • Passion [ˈpæʃ(ə)n] - passion
  • Smile [smʌɪl] - smile
  • Love [lʌv] - love
  • Eternity [ɪˈtɜː(r)nəti] - eternity
  • Fantastic [fænˈtæstɪk] - fantastic
  • Destiny [ˈdestini] - destiny
  • Freedom [ˈfriːdəm] - freedom
  • Liberty [ˈlɪbə(r)ti] - freedom
  • Tranquility [trænˈkwɪlɪti] - tranquility

Later, Reader's Digest editor and renowned lexicologist Wilfred Funk conducted his own research to identify the most beautiful words in the English language. Interestingly, the list includes many words related to nature and wildlife. nine0011 Here is his personal list:

  • Asphodel [ˈasfədɛl] - narcissus
  • Fawn [fɔːn] - deer
  • Dawn [dɔːn] - dawn
  • Chalice [ˈtʃælɪs] - bowl
  • Anemone [əˈneməni] - anemone
  • Tranquil [ˈtraŋkwɪl] - calm
  • Hush [hʌʃ] - silence
  • Golden [ˈɡəʊld(ə)n] - golden
  • Halcyon [ˈhælsiən] - serene
  • Camellia [kəˈmiːliə] - camellia
  • Bobolink [ˈbɒbəlɪŋk] - rice bird
  • Thrush [θrʌʃ]
  • Chimes [tʃaɪm] - chimes, chime
  • Murmuring [ˈməːmərɪŋ] - murmuring, mumbling
  • Lullaby [ˈlʌləbʌɪ] - lullaby
  • Luminous [ˈluːmɪnəs] - luminous
  • Damask [ˈdaməsk] - damask
  • Cerulean [sɪˈruːlɪən] - azure
  • Melody [ˈmɛlədi] - melody
  • Marigold [ˈmærɪˌɡəʊld] - marigolds
  • Jonquil [ˈdʒɒŋkwɪl] - narcissus, bright yellow canary
  • Oriole [ˈɔːrɪəʊl] - Oriole
  • Tendril [ˈtendrəl] — curl, tendril
  • Myrrh [mɜː(r)] - myrrh
  • Mignonette [ˌmɪnjəˈnɛt] - French lace
  • Gossamer [ˈɡɒsəmə] - autumn gossamer
  • Mist [mɪst] - haze
  • Oleander [ˌəʊliˈændə(r)] - oleander
  • Amaryllis [ˌaməˈrɪlɪs] - amaryllis
  • nine0015 Rosemary [ˈrəʊzməri] - rosemary

There are no exact criteria for why this or that word can be considered beautiful. When choosing such words, one can be guided only by their pleasant sound, but not always by the meaning. Oddly enough, some words that sound great, when translated, do not mean the best things.

For example, the word rebellion [rɪˈbeljən] means rebellion or disobedience, and the sonorous word nefarious [nɪˈfɛːrɪəs] is translated into Russian as “low” or “vile”. nine0003

However, there are not many such words. In English, there are enough words that are beautiful to the ear, which are also translated exquisitely. Most of these sophisticated [səˈfɪstɪkeɪtɪd] words (refined words) are associated with universe [ˈjuːnɪvɜː(r)s] (universe) and other beautiful things that surround us.

  • Aurora [ɔːˈrɔːrə] - northern lights
  • Bumblebee [bʌmb(ə)lˌbiː] - bumblebee
  • Butterfly [ˈbʌtə(r)ˌflaɪ] - butterfly
  • Constellation [ˌkɒnstəˈleɪʃ(ə)n] - constellation
  • Galaxy [ˈɡæləksi] - galaxy
  • Meadow [ˈmɛdəʊ] - glade, meadow
  • Sunshine [ˈsʌnˌʃaɪn] - sunlight, sunshine (as an appeal to a loved one)
  • Sweetheart [ˈswiːthɑːt] - dear, beloved (appeal to a loved one)

In addition to concrete nouns, many abstract concepts in English are denoted by beautiful words. These words were coined during the evolution of man, his cultural development and improvement of the inner world. People wanted to express their multifaceted feelings in words, and sometimes they did it beautifully: nine0003

  • Betrayal [bɪˈtreɪəl] - betrayal
  • Behavior [bɪˈheɪvjə] - behavior
  • Consequences [ˈkɒnsɪkwənsɪz] - consequences
  • Delicacy [ˈdɛlɪkəsi] - sophistication
  • Desire [dɪˈzaɪə(r)] - desire
  • Eloquence [ˈɛləkwəns] - eloquence
  • Epiphany [ɪˈpɪfəni] - moment of revelation, insight
  • Faith [feɪθ] - faith
  • Guilt [ɡɪlt] - wine
  • nine0015 Infinity [ɪnˈfɪnəti] - infinity
  • Innuendo [ˌɪnjuˈendəʊ] - insinuation, allusion
  • Inspiration [ˌɪnspəˈreɪʃ(ə)n] - inspiration
  • Oblivion [əˈblɪvɪən] - oblivion
  • Perfection [pə(r)ˈfekʃ(ə)n] - perfection
  • Pronunciation [prəˌnʌnsiˈeɪʃ(ə)n] —
  • pronunciation
  • Reconciliation [ˌrɛk(ə)nsɪlɪˈeɪʃ(ə)n] — reconciliation
  • Sadness [ˈsædnəs] - sadness
  • Solitude [ˈsɒləˌtjuːd] - solitude, loneliness
  • Success [səkˈsɛs] - success

According to native speakers themselves, one of the most beautiful phrases in English is cellar door [ˈselə dɔː], which translates as “door to the basement”. It is said that this was one of the favorite phrases of the writer Edgar Allan Poe, which he called "extremely musical."

There are many words in the English language that convey a whole range of emotions or phenomena. The English often express their thoughts quite capaciously and the appearance of such words is not the most surprising phenomenon. nine0003

For example, in English there is a beautiful word phosphene [ˈfɒsfiːn], which means multi-colored circles in front of closed eyes when we press on them with our fingers.

There is also the word defenestration [ˌdiːfɛnɪˈstreɪʃ(ə)n], which is not translated literally, but means “the act of throwing someone or something out of a window”.

The word sonder [ˈsɔn.dər] means the moment when you realize that passers-by have the same rich and complex life as you do. nine0003

Hiraeth [‘hiraɪθ] denotes a deep sense of homesickness and nostalgia for one's homeland. And somnambulist [sɒmˈnambjʊlɪst] is a sleepwalker, that is, a person who walks in his sleep.

The word effervescence [ˌɛfəˈvɛs(ə)ns] can be translated into Russian as “effervescence” or “the process of release of gas bubbles from a liquid (champagne or soda)”. The beautiful word petrichor [ˈpɛtrʌɪkɔː] denotes the elusive smell of rain that is felt in the air. And a slight murmur or rustle can be expressed with the word susurrus [ˈsuːsərəs]. nine0003

Borrowed from Spanish, duende [duːˈɛndeɪ] denotes the ability of a work of art to touch the human soul. But the word gezellig [ɣəˈzɛləx], which came into English from Dutch, means that indescribable feeling of warmth and comfort when you are close to loved ones.

One of the most famous borrowed words - doppelganger [ˈdɒp(ə)lˌɡæŋə(r)] is translated as a double. It appeared in English from German. nine0003

In English there is a word denouement [deɪˈnuːmɒ̃] borrowed from French. It denotes a denouement or outcome. In other words, completion.

And of course, there are many sonorous (sonorous) adjectives in English. For example, the word ineffable [ɪnˈɛfəb(ə)l] means something big and great that cannot be expressed in suitable words. And ethereal [ɪˈθɪəriəl] is something unearthly, sublime, as if not from this world. Also, something unearthly or alien can be described by the word extraterrestrial [ˌɛkstrətəˈrɛstrɪəl] Other beautiful adjectives:

  • Demure [dɪˈmjʊə(r)] – chaste
  • Dissembling [dɪˈsɛmbəlɪŋ] - hypocritical, pretending
  • Fabulous [ˈfæbjʊləs] - incredible
  • Gorgeous [ˈɡɔː(r)dʒəs] - magnificent, beautiful
  • Hilarious [hɪˈlɛːrɪəs] - hilarious
  • Insatiable [ɪnˈseɪʃəb(ə)l] - insatiable
  • Magnificent [maɡˈnɪfɪs(ə)nt] - magnificent, majestic
  • Naive [nʌɪˈiːv] - naive
  • Pure [pjʊə(r)] - pure, immaculate
  • Sempiternal [ˌsɛmpɪˈtəːn(ə)l] - eternal
  • Twinkling [ˈtwɪŋk (ə) lɪŋ] - flickering, sparkling

  • Wonderful [ˈwʌndə(r)f(ə)l] - wonderful, wonderful

Unusual words in English

Which word does not repeat any letter, and which long word has only one vowel? Find out below: nine0003

Almost (almost) - in this word, the letters are arranged in alphabetical order. Also, as in the word aegilops, which means the aegilops plant.

But in the word strengths (advantages, strengths) - only one vowel for eight consonants.

The word uncopyrightable does not repeat any letter. But in the word indivisibility (indivisibility) the vowel i is repeated as many as five times.

By the way, the longest word in English pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis is related to medicine and has 45 letters. It was deliberately coined and in practice is replaced by the shorter word silicosis (silicosis), which means lung disease caused by inhalation of dust particles containing silicon.

The English themselves joke when they ask what is the longest word in the English language. The correct answer is smiles (smiles). After all, from the first letter s to the last s - a whole mile (mile).

English words that are not in the Russian language

Cultural phenomena or striking character traits often give rise to new words. Such phrases are quickly borrowed around the world and find use in colloquial speech. Here are some of them:

Coffee face (coffee face) - the face of a person who has not yet drunk coffee.

To computer face (face computerized) - make a focused and tense face, looking at the monitor screen so that other people think that you are very busy with work. Book hangover

First world problems (problems of the first world) - some difficulties experienced by a person in a developed society that would seem strange to people from third world countries. For example, unstable Wi-Fi or bad foam on a cappuccino. nine0003

iFinger is a finger that is left clean so that you can use your smartphone while eating.

Gloatgram (Hvastogram) is an account on the social network Instagram, in which the author posts only photos from travels or moments of luxurious life to the envy of friends.

Like shock is a big surprise that your post on social media got a huge number of likes.

Cyberchondriac (Cyberchondriac) - a person who finds symptoms of a disease in himself and begins to frantically search the Internet for information about them.

Baggravation - feeling of anxiety at the airport when the baggage of all passengers has already arrived, but yours has not yet left the transport belt.

Screenager is a teenager who spends most of his time on his smartphone or computer. A combination of the words teenager (teenager) and screen (screen). nine0003

Other words and phrases in English that are not in Russian

  • Earworm (literally: earworm) is an obsessive melody or song that sounds in the head and is difficult to get rid of.
  • Closet music (literally: music in the closet) is the music that we listen to alone and for some reason do not want our friends to know that we love it.
  • Wallflower (literally: a flower against the wall) is a shy person who does not dance at a party. nine0016
  • Refrigerator rights (literally: refrigerator rights) - this expression means a close relationship with someone.
  • Football widow (literally: football widow) - this is the name of the wives whose husbands go headlong into watching football during important matches.
  • Siblings is a common name for siblings. In Russian, we separate them by gender, but in English you can use one word.
  • nine0015 Grandparents - grandparents, also without reference to gender. Although the Russian language has the word "parents" (parents), we do not have a word for the general designation of grandparents.
  • Serendipity - the ability of a person to draw deep conclusions from random observations. This word is also used as "happy accident". For example, in the sentence They found each other by pure serendipity (They found each other by a lucky chance).

It is interesting that some Russian words do not have a simple translation into English. So, we have the word "boiling water", which in English is expressed by the phrase boiling water (boiling water), and the word "day", which can be translated as day (day), but this will not be entirely true. What is a day for a Russian person, for an Englishman is twenty-four hours (twenty-four hours).

Now you know not only the most beautiful words in the English language, but also some stable modern expressions that will help make speech more vivid and varied. nine0003
