Aly~ Posted November 12, 2009 Share Posted November 12, 2009 Study this paragraph and all things in it. What is vitally wrong with it? Actually, nothing in it is wrong, but you must admit that it is most unusual. Don't just zip through it quickly, but study it scrupulously. With luck you should spot what is so particular about it and all words found in it. Can you say what it is? Tax your brains and try again. Don't miss a word or a symbol. It isn't all that difficult?

JillyBeanz Posted November 12, 2009 Share Posted November 12, 2009 There is no "e" - I've been right through the alphabet and there's only an "e" missing - is this the answer? PS. I've really got to admit I sat here for 19 minutes looking at it before I tried that one! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
