Well I guess the title says it all, I was just wondering who ya'll thought were the most active 'forumers' in this part of the AG forum. Opinions, that what this Forum is going to be, pure opinions, and yes you can say 'Me'.

Yes I suppose Nth would have to count, as a mathematical expression. However I still can't believe you are going to use a word outside the english language as an example of words which circumvent the rules of spelling in the english language. You can't compare the two at all.

At least it's pronounceable.


That's because in the English language it's a Crowd.

Nth (the mathematical expression) is a word without vowels.


It's an abbreviation without vowels.

yeah, it's welsh, which is why I adamantly purport that it should not be allowed as illustration of an english word using only consonants.

Nth is an abbreviation if the "n" is an abbreviation for number, if the n indicates an indefinite number it's not an abbreviation.

nth - definition of nth by the Free Online Dictionary, Thesaurus ...
Relating to an unspecified ordinal number: ten to the nth power. 2. Highest; utmost: delighted to the nth degree.


It's recognized as a word in the english language, ergo it's a valid word.

Rhythm and TV are both words that have no vowels would that work? Granted TV is an abbreviation.

"Y" is a consonant in the English language, so it'd work. Rhythms.

TV is an abbreviation of the word television.

Rhythm has none of the 5 primary vowels, that's correct. However in english we sometimes recognize y as a replacement vowel. Still, other than Nth, it's about as close as you can get using only english words.
