abecedarian
just look at it! It's all symmetric and awesome. That D divides the word up perfectly: 5 and 5 on either side. And it rolls around on your tongue like it's trying to stay in your mouth when you say it.
In a very general sense it means "a learner," but dictionary.com has a far more precise definition.

Plethora is a good pick any day, however, today I'm feeling towards "Ambulatory" - the state of being able to walk unhindered. In French I really like "Frileur" (spelling doesn't look right, hmmm) - its a person who is always cold. I like it because this word does not exist in English.

plethora

" very large amount of something or number of things, especially an excessive amount"

its fun to say. Adults also hate it when kids/teenagers say it which makes it even more entertaining to see them get angry when that word is used.
