Question of the Day

Answer


Puzzle of the Day

What English word has all the vowels in alphabetical order?

Answer

These winter nights against my window pane 
Nature with busy pencil draws designs 
Of ferns and blossoms and fine sprigs of pines, 
Oak leaf and acorn, and fantastic vines,— 
Which she will make when summer comes again. 
–T. B. Aldrich (1836–1907), American poet
