Is there a word that makes you smile when you hear it? I have a few:

Canoodle
Shenanigans
Gallivanting.

What's yours?

Scintillating. It was a word used by a hockey play by play announcer Danny Gallivan for the Montreal Canadiens. "OOOOHHHHH a Scintillating Save by Dryden!"

@hippyjoe1955 i would never think to put that word into a statement about hockey!

@akindheart Danny was one of a kind. He had another word 'Spinarama'. It was when one of the players would evade a check by doing a tight circle or spin around. "Oh Richard did a spinarama to get away!". Sadly those days are gone and so is Danny. I don't even watch any sports now.
