Add to ORKGPopular word puzzle lore has it that there are only two relatively common words having the five vowels AEIOU appearing once each and in order: ABSTEMIOUS and FACETIOUS. Over a dozen other such words and terms were logged in Language on Vacation and pre-1998 issue of Word Ways. The number of such AEIOU words jumped dramatically in February 1998, though, with the publication of SUsan Thorpe\u27s article, AEIOU in Order . Susan\u27s article brought together the previously published AEIOU words, many new finds in Webster\u27s Second Edition and the Oxford English Dictionary, plus many culled from the pages of biological references. Susan\u27s article pulled together a total of 145 words
