Syzygy


Syzygy is the alignment of any three celestial bodies. For example, the Sun, Earth, and Moon - such that one body is directly between the other two, such as occurs at an eclipse.

    I assume this word confers an automatic win in a game of Scrabble?

    Very good, Archduchess, I'm sure it should but it might also result in a lot of argument unless you have a dictionary handy to prove it!

    As an interesting aside, what is the longest word with no 'true' vowel?
