Syzygy

[siz-i-jee]

Amazingly, the only English word with three Ys also happens to describe a rare astronomical event involving three heavenly bodies. A syzygy is the alignment of three celestial bodies in a straight line, commonly the Earth, the Sun and the Moon. Now, what is the only common English word to end in -mt?

"Dreamt"

Your good

Dreamt

[dremt]

A poet would appreciate how this past tense of dream possesses such a special quality -- the only verb in regular English usage to end with -mt. We hear from people constantly who swear there must be another term ending in -mt. No one has ever actually offered a second example, however. Perhaps it exists in a dream. The next word is the exact opposite of -mt.

Tmesis

[tuh-mee-sis]

The sole term in the English language to begin with tm- has an unusual meaning to match. Tmesis is the insertion of one or more words between the words that make up a compound phrase, as in "what-so-ever" inserted in the middle of "whatever." You'll never guess what's next: the only word that contains X, Y, and Z.
