Math Is Fun Forum / Can u find the word?

austin81 · 2005-04-01 21:28:59

Consider the set of vowels, V={a,e,i,o,u}. can u find a word that contains all of these vowels in the order they are listed? ( the vowels may be separated by other letters)

MathsIsFun · 2005-04-01 22:00:32

facetious?

austin81 · 2005-04-01 22:26:51

Thanks very much.

Is Administrator a Computer, or a person?

MathsIsFun · 2005-04-01 22:35:13

Beep !

Roraborealis · 2005-04-02 02:23:43

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! That's really funny!

Well, austin81, I believe (since I used to have my own message board) that an administraitor is someone who is the top leader of the board: someone who holds the ability to change settings on the board that normal guests and members can't. A moderator can also do some of these actions, but not all of them, since they're lower down than the administraitor.
Hope you know what I'm rambling on about here.

Considering this topic, which word in the English language has a double u? And which has a double k?

MathsIsFun · 2005-05-06 08:47:11

Water - it starts with a double-u ....

Jackknife.

chariley · 2005-05-06 18:43:39

insomnia · 2005-05-06 19:05:12

Well down. We have now established that you know basic mathematics. Now lets try 2X2=..... (insert your answer here)

Zach · 2005-05-07 00:02:28

Ha! Insomnia drags! He's been at school for the past two days.

Roraborealis · 2005-05-07 01:02:54

Vacuum. ;D

Zach · 2005-05-10 08:20:27

Cleaners? Vacuum Cleaners are good for the brain.

Roraborealis · 2005-05-10 16:08:28

Heh, no, vacuum is the only word in the English language that has a double u.

cool_me · 2005-05-29 02:08:39

i knw the word.its EDUCATION. IT HAS ALL THE VOWELS IN IT. NON REPEATING V

cool_me · 2005-05-29 02:09:47

it's not facetious!

MathsIsFun · 2005-05-29 09:14:33

That's good, cool_me ... I never knew that education so neatly included the vowels.

I will have to remember that!

Roraborealis · 2005-05-30 20:10:59

But it was in the order they were listed.......

Zach · 2005-05-30 20:17:11

Facetious is the correct word, not eductation.

justlookingforthemoment · 2005-05-30 20:24:13

MathsIsFun · 2005-05-30 20:58:16

"wrapped in clouds" is my favourite

justlookingforthemoment · 2005-05-31 18:12:53

wandering soul is pretty good too

cool_me · 2005-06-01 23:38:09

Zach · 2005-06-02 02:59:39
