Is the word pleasant pleasant?

Asked by Ltryptophan (12091) November 4th, 2021 from iPhone

Is there something about the word pleasant that is, in spite of its meaning, pleasant? For instance, if pleasant had a different meaning that meant repulsive, would then the word pleasant still itself be pleasant?

Is it that it’s two syllables?

Bonus: Is there a word for words that are like their meaning. Onomatopoeia means a word sounds like it’s meaning, but here the word sort of embodies its meaning.

Perhaps dungeon is a word like this. It sounds foreboding, and it is. Dragon too. Garbage.
