Beautiful foreign words starting with ali. Beautiful English words, phrases and quotes

When the city falls asleep, the sky wakes up. It is illuminated by hundreds of stars and flying comets, showing their burning tails to those who are not yet sleeping.

The moon, with its cold gaze, carefully examines the houses, plunged into sleep, leaving glare in the windows. And at this time, a lunar path is clearly visible on the sea, trembling from side to side, as if reminiscent of the breathing of water.

As Anatoly Rakhmatov said, “we will enjoy life while it gives us this chance!” Today we started with a small lyrical digression for a reason in order to attract the attention of those who want to get acquainted with the most beautiful words in English language. There are a huge number of them, so we will highlight the most memorable ones.

• Ailurophile– cat lover
• Becoming- attractive
• Brood- to think, to entertain a thought
• Bucolic– characteristics of village life
• Chatoyant– iridescent
  The etymology of the word goes back to the 18th century and originates from the French “chatoyer” - to sparkle like a cat's eye.
• Comely- pretty, attractive
  The word comes from the Old English “cymlic” meaning “beautiful”, in Old German it meant “transient”, and in Middle High German it meant “accordingly”, “properly”
• Cynosure– center of attention, guiding star
  The expression “the cynosure of all eyes” first appears in J. Milton’s work “L’Allegro”, written in 1632.
• Dalliance– light flirting; banter
• Demure- modest, reasonable
  But this word has long been over 600 years old, and initially it meant “to put off,” and later took on the meaning of “adult.”
• Desultory– incoherent, unsystematic
• Dulcet– sweet, pleasant, gentle (sound). The word comes from Latin and has not changed its meaning since the 14th century.
• One of the most romantic words is efflorescence– the beginning of flowering, a synonym for which is blossoming.
• Evanescent- disappearing, fleeting, unnoticeable
• Evocative– evocative
• Fetching- attractive, seductive
• Felicity- bliss, prosperity
  In English there is an idiom felicity of phrase, meaning “gift of speech”, “eloquence”.
• Halcyon- peaceful, happy.
  If your days are filled with serenity, you can safely say: “I have halcyon days.”
• Ineffable- indescribable, unspeakable
• Lagniappe(in American colloquial lagnappe, lanyap) - a small gift that comes with the purchase. Can also denote bonus and tip.
• Leisure- free time
• Lissome– flexible, elastic
• Mellifluous- sweet-sounding, caressing
• Offing- seaside, space visible from the shore to the horizon
• Petrichor– the word has Greek roots meaning “stone” and “liquid”, and symbolizes the indescribable and recognizable aroma emanating from the earth after rain.
• Penumbra- directly and figurative meaning means "half light" and "half shadow".

Sometimes such words are quite difficult to find in native language. We can describe an event or element for an infinite amount of time, but expressing thoughts in one word can be difficult. This is once again proven by Alexander Blok’s poem “Night, Street, Lantern, Pharmacy.” It is also worth paying attention to the masters who wrote tanka, haiku and haiku, because, with barely a wave of their brush, they could express a thought, conveying a special philosophy in a few lines:

Quiet step
Impatience inflames the soul
Funny tricks
Should I not know
How passion flares up

A beautiful company name can attract attention and stand out among competitors. Especially on initial stage entering the market. Therefore, businessmen pay great attention to the name of their brainchild. After all, it is known: whatever you name the yacht, that’s how it will sail.

Although there are now many companies offering naming and branding services, I still think that it is quite possible to come up with effective and bright names. It’s enough to turn on your imagination and connect your immediate environment. Many names of famous brands originated in this unprosaic way.

For example, the legendary name Apple is not the work of highly paid brand makers, but the result of the “threat” of Steve Jobs. He threatened that if by a certain time he was not given an acceptable name, then he would call the company Apple (Apple). And so it happened.

Brevity is the sister of talent, and this statement applies when choosing a company name. The shorter the better, and this can be seen in the example of IKEA IK are the initials of the company’s founder, EA is the abbreviated name of the Elmtarid farm in the village of Agunnarid, where Ingvar Kamprad was born and raised.

Using the name of your hometown in a brand is also a fairly common way. For example: Nokia is the name of the Finnish village where the company was founded.

There are many examples of successful names, but I would like to suggest creating your own top list of the most beautiful company names. Perhaps this will be useful to someone and give them an idea when choosing a name for their company.

I made a selection of the top 30 company names in Russian and English for various fields of activity, focusing on my taste.

What is the most beautiful name for a company that you can suggest? What should you consider and what should you pay attention to when choosing a name?

Reviews and statements

Well, it seems to me. The most important thing is that the name of the company is memorable, there is less text, there is no need for long names with complex words, so that a person remembers the company for a long time and the first time. Just like, a window installation company, I came across it on the Internet when I was doing assignments, the company is called OKONIKA, easy to remember, cute name.

It seems to me that the most beautiful company name in English is Google, few people know, but it is a number, one and 100 zeros. Perhaps Google predicted the successful existence of the company with this name; soon there will be Google searches on Google all over the world :) In general I like it English names more than Russians.

I agree, it’s a cool name, it’s somehow parallel to me, whether it’s a Russian or an English name, the main thing is that it carries meaning and is easy to remember. Here are some not bad names for asphalt plants, DorLider, and Basalt.

This is a fun name for the company. What kind of counter is this :)?

Varan said about Google, but I think the most beautiful company name, both Russian and English, is Yandex, I think it sounds beautiful and impressive, and the meaning is also there.

Alex, inspired by the news that the Kalashnikov plant is ready to pay 40 million rubles for the creation of a website. A large amount that is difficult to get out of your head. But in my head it’s like “rollback”, “rollback”...hence the name for the company “OtkatKontora” :) It’s a logical process, however.

I think when choosing a name for a company, you need to somehow indicate the field of activity in which this company operates.
I really liked the name "BrocCo" (brokerage company)

The name is beautiful, but in my opinion it is suitable not for a brokerage company, but for some kind of dessert :)

Name your company by your first or last name. This will be the best, as your clients will immediately remember you and the attitude will be respectful. Just as there used to be companies like Smirnoff or Ivanov and Sons.

Maybe a middle name? Nikolaich 🙂
the surname is somehow very traditional: Morgan Stanley, JP Morgan, Meryl Lynch, Berrings, Barclays - the “s” at the end of the word is plural
but the names with the name of the country sound more global: “Bank of America”, “Credit Suisse”, “Royal Bank of Scotland”, “People’s Bank of China”

I really like it when the name feels lexical originality. When I used to live in another area, there was a dental office called “Dentist and Me.” I always paid attention and looked at this sign. I also like the name of the YouTube service (the name plays on the slang boob tube “telly”, “box”, and you indicates the degree of personal factor).

Shorten it to the point of euphony or take a couple of letters out of the name, like Poroshenko’s. For a long time I didn’t even know that the candies were named after his last name, I thought it was some kind of French company. There’s nothing wrong with my last name, I got it from my husband and it’s a beautiful one. I named my company “Swan”

It always infuriates me more, and this very often manifests itself in the names of stores, especially grocery stores, when they take names. It’s as if people’s imagination doesn’t work at all, and they came up with the name in the first two minutes. I have a very positive attitude towards short names that carry a lot of meaning, this is a truly professional approach.

There was also a case, by the way, I saw a kiosk with diminutive suffixes (beer, hot dogs, etc.), also a fun and interesting idea. Those. use a comic component to attract customers.

I can’t help but agree with Helen, the traditions of old merchant houses were and still are... . The proposed list contains just a selection of the ugliest names. The owners want, first of all, to reflect what their company specifically does. But I like more mediated titles. where originality is combined with purpose. For example, Firefox.

When I dreamed of my own cafe, and a children’s cafe at that, I wanted to call it Peter Pan. Now I’m thinking about the name of the pizzeria, I decided to name it Pizza-Vera in honor of my sister, it turned out it was already taken.

Well, this is just your opinion, in my opinion, several of the company names presented in the first post are beautiful and memorable. And I don’t think that a company should have the most beautiful name, it should be original and memorable, and it doesn’t matter whether it’s in Russian or English.

For example, “Prorabych”, it may not be the most beautiful for the company, but it is sonorous, original and memorable. It will immediately stick in your head and be remembered. When choosing names for a company, first of all you need to think not about beauty, but about simplicity, this is, of course, just my opinion. And if you just pay attention to beauty, then I like English brands more.

Yes. Alex, there is also Mobilych. And so on... But why attack English names so much? But here you are also right... Not everyone speaks English. And for them these words mean nothing. Regarding Google, I think we need to ask the exact meaning of this word. I haven't been interested in this yet.

English is on the list of the most widely spoken languages. Almost every person first tries to master it. Its popularity is not the only reason for this, since English contains a large number of beautiful words , and listening to which evokes positive emotions.

The beauty of English vocabulary

The presence of beautiful words in English in terms of sound is due to the peculiarities of phonetics. For example, in the words of this language there are almost no sibilants located nearby, and there are no hard-to-pronounce sounds. However, there are a huge number of long and open vowels, combinations of voiced consonants and vowels. In addition, a lot of vocabulary is borrowed from other languages, so it is not difficult to recognize it and find out the meaning without previously encountering translation. For example, liberty, fantastic, galaxy etc. This is another reason that English seems beautiful - it consists of a mass of borrowed words that have retained the most valuable linguistic forms.

A characteristic feature of the language is the high emotional level of vocabulary. With the help of colloquial slang, idiomatic expressions, diminutives, you can fully describe feelings and express emotions.

Linguistics experts from Britain have repeatedly conducted surveys among the population to find out which words are considered the most beautiful. At the same time, only foreigners participated in the survey. Native speakers of the language, accustomed to it since childhood, are not able to objectively evaluate the beauty of words, since, first of all, they associate it with meaning. According to the results of a survey conducted on leading position among beautiful English words it turned out "mother". Otherwise, lexical preferences were influenced by various factors: age category of people, habitual environment, etc. For example, words related to romance and music turned out to be popular among young people; Older participants named words from philosophical topics.

Ratings of the most beautiful and melodic words with translation

Based on the survey results, a list of about a hundred English words was compiled, here are the ten most popular of them:

1. Mother - mother;
2. Love - love;
3. Freedom - freedom;
4. Grace - grace;
5. Moment – ​​moment;
6. Blue - blue;
7. Smile – smile;
8. Hope - hope;
9. Bubble – bubble;
10. Peace - peace.

Obviously, when calling a beautiful word in English, a person, consciously or not, associated it with meaning, therefore, the rating included vocabulary that was perfect in both sound and meaning. Each of these words has a positive connotation. The survey turned out to be useful for linguists, as well as for representatives of other fields: psychologists, marketers, etc. psychological aspect It became clear that people associate beauty with goodness.

As for marketing, first of all, you should use melodic English words for names, slogans and commercials, which is what potential buyers will pay attention to.

If you evaluate the beauty of a word only by its sound, then you can form a new one, guided only by the phonetic features of the vocabulary:

• Golden - golden;
• Luminous – luminous;
• Camellia - camellia;
• Melody – melody;
• Rosemary - rosemary;
• Eternity - eternity;
• Destiny - fate;
• Sunshine - sunlight;
• Blossom – flowering;
• Rainbow - rainbow;
• Smashing – amazing;
• Coconut - coconut;
• Giggle - giggle;
• Paradox - paradox;
• Felicity - happiness

It is noteworthy that the most elegant words turned out to be not indigenous, but borrowed. This emphasizes the multinationality of people or the development of speech, its expansion. In addition, words containing the letters “s” or “q” are popular. Among such vocabulary there are practically no verbs - most of represented by adjectives and nouns.
