Of Words: Figurati

One of my favourite words in any language is in Italian (another favourite I'll have to write about later).

Figurati.

In response to expressions of thanks, a person would respond, 'Figurati!' meaning something like 'Of course!' or 'No problem!'. There is something about the selflessness of the response; the word recalls the sentiment of benevolence, the pleasure of giving.

Sometimes words

Sometimes words come to mind merely for their tactility,
their meaning so wrong, so not what I was looking for.

Give me syllables to taste, I'll leave the meanings behind.
