Can you name a word the has 3 consecutive double letters in it?

Yes.

What? You wanted me to actually name the word? Well then, why didn't you ask? <rot reason="spoiler">obbxxrrcre</rot>

In the same vein: What is the longest English word with only one vowel?

obbxxrrcre ? wtf

Your ROT13 is weak, LKRaider.

Lol, and to think I actually tried +1 and -1 in my head to see if it was something like that


oh and, HINT: <warning rot=ascii> 9EEAi^^>6>36CD]2@=]4@>^8F=79:89a^H@C5Dc]9E>= </warning>

Ugh @ the name of the topic. *edity edity*

In Norwegian we have this word: angstskrik. Loosely translated it means something like a 'scream of fear'. Beat that!

I like the English word onomatopoeia. Four consecutive different vowels .

Rhythm.

Y is a half-vowel, as is W. You could also have said Rhythms to make it longer

Is it strengths?

Longest word where all the vowels are the same:
strengthlessnesses ( 18 )

What is the shortest English word with the five vowels in order (ie it has a, e, i, o, and u once each and in that order, but not necessarily all in a row)?

@DominionSpy
arsenious and some more but i can not remember them now.

bookkeeper ... balloonneer

something interesting from me:
1. give me a synonym for "thesaurus"
2. what's the word with 2 opposite meanings?

What's with that rot stuff?

Is it acceptable something like 'Mississippi'?

ROT13 = Replace each letter by the one 13 letters away in the alphabet, e.g. A<->N, B<->O, M<->Z

No, the double letters are not consecutive.

I like ROT26 better. In fact, i read this article once about how almost every sentence someone speaks in English, if you ROT26, it's still a legible sentence! amazing!

I wonder if anyone unrotted my message...

<hint> The Answer to Life, the Universe, and Everything + 5 </hint>

forty-two and five makes forty-seven

Okay, now check my earlier post

I did (didn't need the hint either, just a bit of experimenting where exactly your range of ASCII characters is supposed to end), although you should've removed the spaces around it (they're slightly confusing, and not part of the message). Here's another one in the same vein: <rot type=ascii>m9EEAi^^HHH]C:?<H@C<D]4@>^H@C5D^</rot>

[PS: Yay for 30 bytes of Perl code!]

i still don't get any of this stuff... maybe i'm too un-nerdish

a 'brain teaser' that i like is the image puzzle which most of you should already have completed, but have you also passed the 2nd, 3rd and 4th puzzle?
