Nothing rhymes with orange


Hey threadless is having a SALE!
And in the spirit of Marlia's fun facts, here are a few for you.
1) No word in the English language rhymes with month, orange, silver, or purple.
2) "Stewardesses" is the longest word typed with only the left hand.
3) "Dreamt" is the only English word that ends in the letters "mt".
4) The words 'racecar,' 'kayak' and 'level' are the same whether they are read left to right or right to left (palindromes).
5) There are only four words in the English language which end in "dous": tremendous, horrendous, stupendous, and hazardous.
6) There are two words in the English language that have all five vowels in order: "abstemious" and "facetious."
7) Audrey is a word nerd.
