  • I can "write" a sentence. :oP "The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog."
  • without repeating? I don't know...but I know one with all of them but they repeat. Here it is. The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog.
  • The answer is no. The sentence "The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog." uses every letter of the alphabet! The sentence "Pack my box with five dozen liquor jugs" uses every letter of the alphabet and uses the least letters to do so!
  • This is called perfect pangrams and no sentence has ever been done that makes sense using English letters to form a perfect pangram. Or at least none has been documented thus far.
  • Sure, I can write the right sentence for you. I remember this from typing class: "The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog."
  • I can't. There is one that includes all the letters of the alphabet, but it does repeat letters.
  • There's also this shorter one: "Sphinx of black quartz, judge my vow". (29 letters) Phrases using all the letters are called Pangrams. There are some that do not repeat any letters but most of the words are obscure to say the least. You can find much more of them here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pangram
  • The closest thing I have found to a sentence that makes logical sense and is a perfect pangram, or anagram of the alphabet is: "TV quiz drag nymphs blew JFK cox." The end is a little off but it is the closest thing I have found.
  • "Cwm, fjord-bank glyphs vext quiz." Cwm = (Welsh origin) a mountain hollow (I think) glyphs = strange written characters vext = archaic spelling of "vexed" quiz = an eccentric person So, "In a mountain hollow, strange characters on the bank of a fjord irritated an eccentric person." Not that I think this counts as an "English sentence" but it is a perfect pangram.
