Word of the Day: "Dulcet"

I happened upon this list of the "most beautiful words in the English language".  There are 100 words on this list.  So, I thought I would try to eventually share them all with you through a word of the day.  Not necessarily every single day, but when I have the time.  Maybe this while help enhance your vocabulary! Some of them have rather strange meanings, but I can see how people thought these words were eloquent.  Today's word is "dulcet", which means sweet or sugary. However dictionary.com defines it as "pleasant to the ear; melodious".
