Today's Spanish Lesson: farmaceutico - pharmacist - I found a Spanish word with all five vowels.
I discovered this while getting help from a pharmacist today. A bilingual sign was posted on my side of the counter with the a-e-i-o-u word in it. When I told the pharmacist that I had found a Spanish word with all five vowels, she asked me what it was, and I responded, "you". She was instantly puzzled and then I eXplained the sign. She came around to my side of the counter to read the sign, and she said, "Well, if I'm ever on 'Who Wants To Be A Millionaire' I will have something interesting to say about myself"
[This story should point out very clearly how easily I am amused. Five vowels in one word, it doesn't get much cheaper than that.]
