Word of the Day: Euphony

eu·pho·ny

[yoo-fuh-nee]
noun, plural eu·pho·nies.
agreeableness of sound; pleasing effect to the ear, especially a pleasant sounding or harmonious combination or succession of words: the majestic euphony of Milton's poetry.
[Source: Dictionary.com]


I picked it up from a forum where I guess it was wrongfully used in place of 'epiphany'. The definition to be defines the effect of reading Edgar Allan Poe.
