What is a cool word to say

Many people, especially teenagers have the habit of using certain words in between conversations which they consider to be really cool. Many times these words do not have any meaning. But, then why are these words considered to be cool? One of the main reasons that make people use these words is the way they sound. Another reason would be just to impress the people they are talking to. However, many of these words have become common and hence, people are in search of some cool words that will make them stand out among a group of friends. So, if you are interested, here is a list of really cool words that you can use while talking to them.

List of Sophisticated Words

Most of us have the habit of using a word that comes to the mind automatically during certain situations. Though there are people who use it because they know their meaning, there are many who say something because it sounds really cool. On the other hand, as I said earlier, many of these words do not mean anything and even if they do, they are not said because of its meaning. Rather, it is just the effect that it gives to one’s speech, is what makes it really cool. So, let us take a look at some of these cool words. (Do keep in mind though to take most of the meanings mentioned here with a pinch of salt, as they are meant solely to tickle your funny-bone.)
