Most Wonderful Sound (Sugar Wiki)/Literature

Examples of |the Most Wonderful Sound in include:


 * *open book* *turn page* *turn page* *turn page* (several hours later) *turn page* *turn last page* *close book* *happy sigh*
 * If you are lucky enough to own a copy of Grant's Scottish National Dictionary Volume 6, go and fetch it, and then find a nice quiet room, open it at about the middle, prepare yourself, and then close the book.
 * And if you need a little more drama in your life, slam your books shut. Better than chocolate.
 * Semi-literature, semi-Real Life example: When J. R. R. Tolkien was constructing the fictional Elven language, he composed it of all the sounds he felt were most pleasing to the ear.
 * Well, this comes from a guy who said that, ignoring the actual meaning of the words, "cellar door" sounds more beautiful than "beautiful". He had his own private theories about why certain words sounded beautiful or ugly.
 * And on the flip side of the coin, he tried to make the Black Speech as ugly as possible—lots of harsh consonant clusters, excessive use of guttural vowels, and so forth.
 * Which, for this lover of consonant-full languages (and harsh beauty in general - we need a word for that...), backfired.
 * Not exactly a sound, because...well, obvious reasons, but whenever.
