    200 MAGICAL WORDS FOR AN ESSAY

    velvet lush carnival mellifluous exquisite


    mystique phosphorescence angel fire opulence pixie dust
    ravishing glimmering luxurious jasper toothsome
    lemongrass sleek ethereal lucerne sizzling
    bliss sorcery svelte hallucinatory incarnadine
    tantalising rill owl light assuages dulcet
    languorous arcipluvian misty-eyed lissome sensuous
    alchemy lithe twirling sorbet juicy
    vermilion ephemeral sumptuous plush elysian
    tinkling salubrious paradise shimmering stellar
    supple murmurs wood sorrel gloaming dewy-eyed
    halcyon phantasm-grey flourishing iridescent sparkling
    frazil placid star flash cloudberry glassy
    evanescent rapture aurora oxblood alluring
    luminous crystalline soughing glamour cerise
    fragrance transcendental beryl swirling magnetism
    serene lucid mystical cinnamon eunoia
    voluptuous starless claret-red thaumaturgy river gazer
    honey dew fuchsia-pink whirring opaline Amazonian
    Arcadian elf light splendour monk hum stardust

    These words are some of the most beautiful and resonant in the English language. Each one
    should have the effect of improving a passage of writing. A lot of them are phono aesthetic,
    which means they have a quality of sound that appeals to people. That is why Tolkien, Edgar
    Allen Poe, Japanese, Italians and Spanish people amongst others all love the word: CELLAR
    DOOR. The fact that it is two words didn’t seem to concern them! My own personal
    favourite is frazil-silver. Frazil is the archaic term for the ice crystals tumbling down a
    mountain stream. If there’s a better image out there than frazil-silver ice crystals cascading
    down a birthstone-blue mountain stream, I would love to hear about it!
    100 OTHER MAGICAL WORDS AND COLOURS

    translucence illusory otherworldly paradise-green warbling
    ultramarine rhapsody burbling jewel dust a-smoulder
    infinity argent-silver chartreuse earthshine-gold lavish
    lambent manna saccharine cascaded petrichor
    celestial sublime euphonious lilting enthralling
    fairytale-green willowy halogen-blue emblazoned hosanna
    a-flash bucolic velour sylvan moonbeams
    quivering orpine-purple wizard-white Titian-red a-light
    glamour dust trilling minty mystique eldritch
    geosmine honeysuckle riparian sprinkling luminol-blue
    larimar-blue dawn-pink nut-brown empyrean confectionary

    A great exercise to test someone’s English skills is to divide the words into rows of 5 or
    columns of twenty. Using a dictionary if necessary, try to compose a story using those words.
    Repeat the exercise regularly and you will find that your English skills will be much
    improved. Not only does it broaden your diction, but it also helps you to manipulate words
    into their proper context. If you can think of more beautiful words, you should keep them in a
    special section in your vocabulary notebook. The word ‘eunoia’ means ‘beautiful thinking’.
    My hope is that by reading this book, all those who like to progress at English will write with
    both eunoia and stardust. Thanks, God bless, and may you prosper.
