Feel Free to Ignore This Post

Here are some word-related useless facts. Being a wordsmith, I found them interesting, though I don't require that you find them similarly interesting.

  • "Stewardesses" is the longest word typed with only the left hand.
  • "Lollipop" is the longest word typed with only the right hand.
  • "Typewriter" is the longest word that can be made using the letters only on one row of the keyboard.
  • "Dreamt" is the only English word that ends in the letters "mt."
  • The average person's left hand does 56% of the typing.
  • Only two English words contain all five vowels in order: "abstemious" and "facetious."
