The word bed looks like a bed.
Boob just because it shows how boobs look from the three main perspectives: top, straight on, and profile.
That’s very immature but very accurate
There’s nothing immature about boobs, my friend. Quite the opposite in fact.
What I mean is that I laughed about this when I was twelve. I still do, but I also did when I was twelve.
Speaking of which:
When you articulate the word “poop”, your mouth makes the same sequence of shapes your anus does when you poop.
Same with “explosive diarrhea”
Always dug the word “queue” you only pronounce the first letter and the rest of them are just waiting in line all tidy.
The word queue is made up of a queue of vowels. It’s pronounced exactly the same as its first letter. It’s beautiful.
Koowéwé
When in all lowercase letters the word
bed
Looks like a bed.
syzygy
Yeah, love it. very similar vibe, with all the y’s.
Also Gypsy, Myth, Glyph
Words where Y is the only vowel are satisfying.
I discovered this word while reading the three body problem and I thought it was made up lol
It was an episode of the X-Files for me
One of my kids is named Ivy and she was the first to learn how to write it because it’s one stick, two sticks, three sticks. Her under 2 year old sister was at the library once and pointed to a book and said “Ivy” and yep, that was on the spine of the book. So I love that word because it made two of my kids understand written language.

Bonus points for no aeiou.
“Minimum” is quite nice, particularly in calligraphy where it’s just a bunch of vertical lines
dub
It looks like headphones. Nicely symmetrical.
I think bookkeeping is a nice, woody word, both visually and spoken
hijinks
Three tittles in a row.
Hey man, nice tittles
I love the word acquiesce. It just looks classy and elegant (even though the word doesn’t mean anything like it)
cipőfűző
The French really like it for some reason. It means shoelaces in Hungarian.
Cipo means “you pussy” in Polish
“Slyly” actually kind of bothers me a little due to how it looks.
Pretty much any Arabic calligraphy.
I went to a museum in Morocco that was specifically showing Arabic calligraphy in the shape of trees or people or other common objects and was absolutely blown away.
Indelibly printed on my mind.
I saw saw Arabic calligraphy and I was like oh s*** they got the written word correct.

I like how the Arabic word for ape is the same word that they use for monkey, but the artist cleverly drew one with a tail, and one without.
Very cool find, I would not have noticed that unless you mentioned it.
Thanks
