Often it depends on the context. But here are some words I don't like the sound of:

Premium
Exclusive
Luxury
Community
Synergy
Superstar
Contemporary
Moist

No curse words, no neologisms. Your turn.
 
I don't like when people say "motor" when talking about engines. V8 motor, V12 motor, and the worst are rotary motor or boxer motor. Just doesn't sound right. If its for electric motors that's one thing, but internal combustion ENGINES should be called engines IMO. All personal preference, though.
 
Anything with too many consonants.

Quench, shoulder, etc.

In German, the word for engine is Motor. :D

So it is in Dutch, when we go ride we go on the 'motor' :p

How are you here? On the motor!

Or; the motor of my motor is defective!

Oh yeah and I hate 'Gorgeous' and 'Awesome', because I can't speak those two words correctly.
Sorry guys, nobody is perfect :p
 
Chuckle, chuckling, chuckled, etc. Just typing it out or hearing someone use any one of those in a conversation makes me cringe.


Also:
Banterous.

This too. With the exception of @hsv's avatar.
 
"Luck" I hate that word so much.

When I'm having a horrible day and someone ALWAYS says "That's just some bad luck." -sigh-

I hate wicked (as it's now somehow a Maine "thing" to say), epic, sick, and nasty. Might just be because I hang out with the "tuner" crowd it sucks.
 
Horrific.
 
Biscuit....call it a cookie, cracker or anything else but biscuit. The sound of the word just annoys me and I don't know why.

Actually, I hate the word cookie, now that you mention it. Not the products, just the word.
 
Treat. I despise that word.
 
Tom
Treat. I despise that word.

How about this? :sly:

How can you spell Armour right but spell Flavour wrong on the same package???????????
It's probably being marketed to both Brits and Americans.
