More than words

Came across this very interesting article about the power of words from the Feb issue of Reader's Digest. Luckily the list is not too long, therefore, I can put it up here for you. :)

- Aegilops - the longest word with letters in alphabetical order
- Queuing - the longest word with 180-degree symmetry
- Stressed and Desserts - the longest words that can be reversed
- Esophagographers - the longest word in which all letters appear twice
- Strengths - the longest word that has only one vowel
- Stewardess - the longest word that can be typed with the left hand
- Dermatoglyphics - the longest word without repeating a letter
- Latchstring - longest run of consonants
- Screeched - longest one-syllable word
- Honorificabilitudinitatibus - the longest word to alternate consonants and vowels
