In “The Book of Lists” (Irving Wallace) there are a number of words which
are considered the most beautiful SOUNDING in the English language. Sadly,
because of bad association or definition, we often don’t use many of them.
So try out this list, and say these aloud to get the full onomatopoeic
effect. Feel free to ADD your favorite-sounding word (no matter what it
means).

babbling
murmuring
voluptuous
rendezvous
gossamer
scenario
