Inspired by this and this, I was curious what would be YOUR favorite Bangla word? You can only choose one.

Of all the contenders such as তীর্থের কাক, কাকতলিয়, হ য ব র ল, কিংকর্তব্যবিমুড় (সিক?) , I have to say my favorite from purely poetic p.o.v is " বৌ-কথা-কউ"

Runner up (due to obscurity):
শঙ্খচক্রগদাপদ্মধ রী (I like how four, simple words are combined alluding to mythology).
Bepar ta ki? Ajke eto bou bou
