ABCDE in Dutch

Authors

Hugo Brandt Corstius

Abstract

Susan Thorpe (Word Ways, Feb 1999) asks which of the 120 permutations of ABCDE occur in words. In the context of Word Ways I thought this meant "English word (or name" so I was surprised to see the German verb abdecken and the Polish word abecadto in her list. Surely, French verb abceder (suppurate).
