A sentence that contains all 26 letters is called a pangram. The best known one is “The quick brown fox,” yada yada, but there a few lesser known ones, like:
- The five boxing wizards jump quickly. (Great if you’re a Harry Potter fan)
- Jinxed wizards pluck ivy from the big quilt. (Also seriously Potteresque)
- Crazy Fredrick bought many very exquisite opal jewels.
Between you and me, making up pangrams is a great way to pass time in a boring meeting. You look quite serious, and you’re writing stuff down, so you have to be working, right?
