We're excited to announce this month's winners of our Word Love competition. Thanks to everyone who has submitted their favourite word.

Why they love it so

Nick James, Winner
Smidgeon
A small amount of something
"I love it because its slightly odd and off beat but very cute, it's the Zooey Deschanel of words...well to me anyway, but perhaps I've over thought it a smidgeon."

Beck Watson, Runner Up
Trinket
A small ornament or item of jewellery that is of little value.
”I love the jangly, delicate sound it has; it makes me think of tiny drawers full of tiny treasures.”

Ketan Raval, Honourable Mention
Zeal
Great energy or enthusiasm in pursuit of a cause or an objective.
”It's the tenacious attitude, which is important in the way we work.”

Trevor Evans, Honourable Mention
Elegance
The quality of being pleasingly ingenious and simple; neatness.
”It sounds and looks just as it means.”

Winner, Nick, will receive a Nine Magic Cake Set from Konditor & Cook, London, and Runner Up, Beck, will receive a fancy 'glug' waterbottle.

These words and why our winners love them will feature throughout the month on Word Love Wednesday. Follow along on Instagram, Facebook, and Twitter (#wordlove).

Please note that if your word didn't win this month, it's still in the running, and you can enter as many times as you like.

Word love,
