I have a million favorite words in Spanish. The short list is: chaval, cachorro, cadera, pelirroja, ceniza (it's fun to say with a Spanish accent--the c's and z's and all), nevera, murcielago, and it goes on from there. I also love a lot of place names in Spanish. specifically Tegucigalpa, Jerez de la Frontera, Zihuatanejo, Medellin... Oh, and I also love the imperative form for vosotros, like "decid" and "tengad."
In German, I love the word knoblauch, also because it's fun to say.
I find French fun to speak and pronounce, but only in context. I don't really have a favorite stand-alone word in French.

A french speaker once told me her favorite word(s) in English are "Cellar Door." She just liked the sound of it .
In French, I like " du bois." It means "of the woods," and it's fun to say, even though my accent sucks.
In Spanish, I like "conquistador," which means "conqueror." I think it's fun to roll your "R" at the end.
I guess I pay more attention to the sound of words than their meaning in another language when picking favorites. It's fun to imitate other people's accents. Not that I like making fun of the way people talk, just that it's interesting to me the way people form words in different ways using various languages.

I like "yappari"
It's Japanese... I think it means "as I had feared" or "as I thought".
Not exactly sure because there are different meanings depending on context.
But it sounds so cool. Say it ! You gotta hold the "p' sound an extra half second and roll the "r' like In Spanish.
Yappari!!!!
I love it!!!
Example: "Yappari kore wa totemo tanoshimi desu"
"As I had thought, this is really fun!"
