Which Spanish word is the most unpleasant to say?
My choice is higiénico It's difficult to pronounce and sounds feo, unlike most Spanish words.

I would have to agree that "higiénico" is not a very pleasant word to say.
But for me, I have always been frustrated with the word "Estacionamiento", which means "parking". Every time I'm in a Latin American country and see that sign, I feel exhausted just looking at it, let alone saying it. (jeje)
I really dislike the word "imbécil" in any language. I think it's an ugly, mean word. On the other hand - the word "acne" is so ugly sounding in English, but in Spanish "acné" sounds a little romantically tragic..."Padezco de acné" has a sort of "Wuthering Heights" feeling to it, don't you think?
I remember one day going to the doctor with one of our kids. I will never forget what he said to us, my wife and myself: "Lo que el niño tiene es gingivoestomatitis herpética aguda"
Please do not ask me what this is. Doctors here might know. ![]()
Para mí una palabra la más fea es "débil", porque significa "idiota" en mi lengua materna.
