Surprisingly, soliloquy hasn't been mentioned here.

soliloquy
səˈlɪləkwi/
noun

1. an act of speaking one's thoughts aloud when by oneself or regardless of any hearers, especially by a character in a play.

It's more common a word than you may think.

I see that many of the replies are in the form q*y. You can search for words of this form in the Corpus of Contemporary American English, where you will find frequency statistics and examples. You can compare word usage stats across sub-sections of the corpora, e.g. spoken English & written academic English.

This satyresque question quickly produced mystique gyrofrequencies all over my head. With the right physique and a valid triptyque, one could answer it in person. But the modern youthquake is answering online on yanqui websites, and receiving diddlysquat for doing so. This leaves a taste of yaqova in the mouths of knowledge-sharers, causing quinsy and quietly sending few unlucky ones down the quay more frequently than quarterly.

Quickly looking quizzically at this quixotically framed question, I wonder what kind of queasy quackery is behind this quaintly quaky question that makes me quiver even in this warm climate - I query and then lapse into a quiescency that is quality-wise very deep!

Quirky.

[A B C  D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z]

quietly I’d have to add

that my qwerty keyboard

is quaintly resisting my

keystrokes perhaps because

it is queerly, even spookily

behaving squarely kooky on

this nearly Halloween day.



uh-oh, I think I saw a mouse

being squirrely, squeakily

sneaking by, and now that

it’s gone, I had better

quantify my squawky words

by saying I’m no English

professor, just a squirrelly

Quorator, who just put her

foot on a three-inch squishy

spider.
