Word Games, part 3
What do you mean I haven’t posted in 3 months!? …oh, I guess I’ve made a bunch of half-written drafts, but never finished any of them. I should get on that.
In the meantime, here’s a word game for you. How many words can you name in 10 minutes that contain all 5 vowels? Y’s are optional but stylish. It’s okay if the words contain some vowels multiple times, or if the vowels are out of order. My word list is in the first comment.
abstemious
amnesious(the word is amnestic)antievolution
automobile
bivouacked
cautioned
diatomaceous
discourage (discouraged/discourages/discourageous)
sequoia
uncopyrightable
ungarrisoned
daguerreotyping
revolutionary
ostentatiously
aww, heck. I named 37 in 10 seconds:
grep a /usr/share/dict/american-english | grep e | grep i | grep o | grep u | grep y;)
Well played, sir. :-)
also… not in the dictionary, but I quite like milquetoasty =)
