Most beautiful German word “Habseligkeiten”

In a decision that jilted thousands of contest participants who had voted for
“Liebe” (love), “Habseligkeiten” (possessions) was chosen last Saturday by
the Deutscher Sprachrat (German Language Council) as the most beautiful
German word. A total of 22,838 participants from 11 countries took part in the
contest, which ended August 1.
