Useful no such thing for me since I'm not fluent and wouldn't try to seem until further notice; but favorite: せんりつ
if I married a Japanese woman and had a child I would name them that, I don't care what anyone says. well maybe I'd cut the kid some slack if it was a boy. |

洋服だんす is probably my favourite. According to my dictionary it means 'wardrobe'. I just like the image it gives me of all my clothes having a disco in the closet.
サボテン is probably another. One of my housemates had a video game where one of the characters repeatedly screamed something like 'はどうけん’, only I kept hearing at as サボテン and wondering what the big deal was about cacti. |

As well as what yuriyuri said, 本当(hontou) does not mean really. It means truth. 本当に(hountou ni) means truly (which pretty much also means really).
Anyway, I'm not sure about my favorite word. I don't know what my favorite word in English is but I have only the selection of the coming on 1,000 or so words I know in Japanese making it easier than the tens of thousands I probably know in English (so many more Japanese words to learn :S). Here's a few of the many words which I like for some reason or other. 日本(nihon) - This means Japan. Because I love Japan. 空気(kuuki) - This means Air. I remembered this easy because it sounds similar the English word cookie. 歩く(aruku) - This is a verb meaning 'to walk'. It allowed the Totoro opening to be one of the first Japanese songs I understood some of. |

"Wakarimasu" would be my favorite word.
My Japanese vocabulary is less then 100 words. I am self-taught. On my recent trip to Tokyo I asked many people for help in my 'broken Japanese'. And the answers I recieved were given in english, broken english, or Japanese. What I loved was the look of delight when I would say, 'wakarimasu' and then repeat the key words that I understood It's a good word. (I also have a favorite phrase. "Koko wa doko.") |
