hi everyone.......
recently someone told me that a list of words can be prepared in which all of the alphabets(A-Z)are contained without repeating a single alphabet.......is it true, how can i get this list of words...i tried using anagram engines on net but they reject it as input is 26 letter long.........
There just aren't that many 26 letter words that any one word contains the exact 26 letters of the alphabet, much less a list of them.
A pangram is a sentence which contains all 26 letters but they are allowed to repeat, afaik there is not one only 26 letters long. For example, "Brick quiz whangs jumpy veldt fox" has 28 letters because it uses i and u twice.
i once read an article in which about 8-9 words were mentioned that use all aphabets without repeating any of them.......unfortunately i lost that article
Hi, newbee: just to clarify: when you say "alphabets" do you mean "letters in the alphabet"? If that's the case, then I've only seen phrases, like the one Myridon cited, but never a list of words.
at askoxford.com you can find this:
We don't know of a sentence that only uses each letter once, but there is a 28-letter example that uses the letters "i" and "u" twice: Brick quiz whangs jumpy veldt fox.
this certainly suggests the unliklihood of there being any word(s) that is comprised of each letter only once!
tsu: Bet you 10 cents that it's been done
Pay up tsuwm,
hymns pdq fox t'wuz jerk glib vac
"pdq" is too a word and "vac" is Brit speak for "vacation" and
"hymn's jerk t'wuz glib fox",
so there.
please dont misunderstand..........
its NOT a single word with all letters.........
it should be a list of different words.....
they may or may not form a sentence(After all, sentence is also made up of genuin words:))
NO repetition of letters(ie alphabets) is allowed....
its NOT a trick question so NO reading between lines.This question was asked by someone as a riddle also
here i found something .............take a look..
Mr. Jock TV quiz PhD bags few lynx
Cwm fjord bank glyphs vext quiz
Blowzy night-frumps vex'd Jack Q
Veldt jynx grimps waqf zho buck
these are from anagram engine.Out of these four first,third and fourth are rejected as they use acronyms and other stuff....
so we are left with second sentence and only "VEXT" is a bit debatable all others are proper words.Even "VEXT" is in some dictionaries treated as a word...
