My current favourite is that of the #German phrase "süßlich süß" (cloying sweet).

Paradoxically, I am revolted by the physical mouthfeel of ingesting something like that i.e. eating a lychee🤮 although that is definitely an #ActuallyAutistic thing 😀

I don't know if it's the double eszett but for me, it's pure magic to the ear.

When thinking of #phonaesthetics in English it is most common to think of the phrase "cellar door" as stated by #JRRTolkein in his 1955 lecture "English and Welsh".

Perhaps you are a fan of the late 80's mini-series #TheSingingDetective so it might be ELBOW.

What is your favourite sounding phrase, in English or any other language?
