Mental Floss Scatterbrained (Mental floss) ( PDFDrive )

Sample usage:
 “Er, I et it.” (
Er
 is also playable.)
In ancient Egyptian cosmology, the 
ba
 is the eternal soul.
Sample usage:
 “You want me to sell my ba? Nah.”
In the 19th century, Baron Carl von Reichenbach coined the word 
od
 to refer to the force that pervades the universe—which he 
believed was particularly manifested in magnets and crystals. 
Why 
od
? The baron’s own answer: “Everyone will admit it to 
be desirable that a unisyllabic word beginning with a vowel 
should be selected.” Well, jeez, if 
everyone
 will admit it, then 
by all means.
Sample usage:
 “Every time I remember that Baron von 
Reichenbach made up a word that got in the dictionary and I 
haven’t, I feel the od within me deplete.”
And the entire list (not that we’re getting paid by the word or 
anything): 
aa, ab, ad, ae, ag, ah, ai, al, am, an, ar, as, at, aw, 
ax, ay, ba, be, bi, bo, by, de, do, ed, ef, eh, el, em, en, er, es, et, 
ex, fa, go, ha, he, hi, hm, ho, id, if, in, is, it, jo, ka, la, li, lo, ma, 
me, mi, mm, mo, mu, my, na, ne, no, nu, od, oe, of, oh, om, on, 
op, or, os, ow, ox, oy, pa, pe, pi, re, sh, si, so, ta, ti, to, uh, um, 
un, up, us, ut, we, wo, xi, xu, ya, ye, yo
. Eight of those 96, inci-
dentally, make an appearance in the Dr. Seuss classic 
Green 
Eggs and Ham
