Word Freak Fest: primal part
 

This week's challenge: English words with three or more consecutive vowels. No cheating. Form an orderly queue ;)


Oh and be sweet, suggest one at a time to give others in different time zones a chance......

Would 'aegis' count?


possibly not...not really English.

What about 'attention'?

Dana, I think monster meant consecutive as in "one after another," like qUEUE, which has four consecutive vowels, as opposed to "in alphabetical order" like AttEntIOn.

One of my all time favorite words:
salacious

Aeon

Ahhh! Gotcha...

In that case: mediaeval

encyclopediae (?)

aqueous

manoeuver/manoeuvre.

Sorry to post twice, I just used this in another thread and went: eureka!

Do you think the Queen makes her own manoeuvers or does she have people for that?

Facetious. Also has all the vowels in alphabetical order.


Sent by thought transference

I beg to differ. Also does not have all the vowels in alphabetical order. True, all the vowels it *does have* are present in the same order as they are in the alphabet, but that's not what you were talking about, I'm sure. You may poo-poo my response as a facetious one, but that would not be valid. I don't care, I've been sham-pooed before.

Facetiously.


:p:

I say! manoueuvreboard!

Facetiously?

I can hardly believe what I'm seeing!
