prettygoodworddelectation - n., delight, enjoyment, pleasure.
Or more properly, the act of getting pleasure from something. I offer these pretty good words for your delectation. From Middle English, from Old French, from Latin, from delectus, past participle of delectere, to please, and thus closely related to delight.
