Favorite French Words, Deux

Voila.
Of course, I was familiar with this word long before coming to Switzerland. Yet, in the nearly 1 month (whoa!) that I've been here, I've been amazed by the depth of meaning that this word has. I hear it dozens of times a day. I not only love the zillions of meanings this word can take, but I love the way that people say it. When spoken aloud it has the tone of genuine pride. "Look at me. I did this. I'm extremely proud of my work. I solved the problem. And now I'm handing it over to you. Enjoy." Voila!
