(Wanted to note the use of this great word, but didn't want to disrupt the thread where it was used in a relevant and skillful fashion.

I like "Papadums" too.

The actual food is fine, but the word is just a fun word.

I used to know someone who absolutely cringed whenever someone said "moist".

 

Funny how words can do that totally independent of their meaning.

 There's a word for that: onomatopoeia.  It's for when words sound like what they mean.

Never tried a papadum, but I love Tim Tam Slams!

 

TimTamSlam...... mmmmmmmmm

Not much is better than that.

Oh yeah...... it is more than onamata a a a whatevery.......

It is not that they sound like what they are - it is just that some words sound "nice" or "funny" or "clean" or something.

Papadums for instance sound like fun - but the actual item is just a fried cracker type bread you have with certain Indian foods.

Vociferous is just a sharp and somewhat intimidating word - it is kinda like a "I am neat and crisp, but don't mess with me" kinda word......

Papadums is kinda goofy and easygoing - like that slightly overweight jolly friend that everyone likes to have around - you know he is going to make you feel good about the world......
