Dish #24 - 10 Facts.

The Dish: As some of you may or may not know, I'm kinda weird and particular about spelling and English words.

Oh fine: This is what happens when you are on the Internet for too long. Damn, I need to get out more often.

#1. "Stewardesses" is the longest word typed with only the left hand.
#2. "Lollipop" is the longest word typed with your right hand.
#3. No word in the English language rhymes with month, orange, silver, or purple.
#4. "Dreamt" is the only English word that ends in the letters "mt".
#5. Our eyes are always the same size from birth, but our nose and ears never stop growing.
#6. The sentence: "The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog" uses every letter of the alphabet.
#7. There are only four words in the English language which end in "dous": tremendous, horrendous, stupendous, and hazardous.
#8. There are two words in the English language that have all five vowels in order: "abstemious" and "facetious."
#9. "Typewriter" is the longest word that can be made using the letters only on one row of the keyboard.

There you go: 9 totally useless facts. I knew #6 and as for the rest, I have my doubts. How many did you know? Oh, and fact #10, fact #5 has nothing to do with words.
