I like "approximately" in English cause I remember trying to learn that one for English vocabulary test and it's just such long and extra word for sth so simple, in Finnish approximately is just "noin". Don't ask me to pronounce approximately though xd

Some Finnish words I like:
- Soma ; meaning is somewhere between pretty and cute.
- Kuura ; frost or "frost created by deposition of water vapor into solid ice" as dictionary calls it.
- Varjo ; shadow

EDIT: I also like "Himmel" which is swedish and means sky/heaven.
