Favorite Word:
perspicacity
Keenness of mental perception and understanding; discernment; penetration.I like the way it sounds and that one sounds perceptive when pronouncing the word. It describes Jane Austen to me.

Least Favorite Word:
interesting
It can say to someone that it's exciting. Or that it can be used facetiously or sarcastically. It doesn't convey any meaning. An empty word.
