==Perfect pangrams== A perfect pangram contains every letter of the alphabet only once and can be considered an [[anagram]] of the alphabet. The only known perfect pangrams of the English alphabet use abbreviations or other non-dictionary words, such as "Blowzy night-frumps vex'd Jack Q." or "Mr. Jock, TV quiz PhD, bags few lynx."<ref name="Augarde-2003" /> or they include words so obscure that the phrase is challenging to understand, such as "Cwm fjord-bank glyphs vext quiz",<ref name="Augarde-2003" /> in which ''{{lang|cy|[[Cwm (landform)|cwm]]}}'' is a [[loan word]] from the [[Welsh language]] meaning an amphitheatre-like glaciated depression, ''vext'' is an uncommon way to spell ''vexed'', and ''quiz'' is used in an [[Archaism|archaic]] sense to mean a puzzling or eccentric person. It means that symbols in the bowl-like depression on the edge of a long steep sea inlet confused an eccentric person. Other writing systems may present more options: The [[Iroha]] is a well-known perfect pangram of the Japanese [[syllabary]], while the [[Javanese script#Order|Hanacaraka]] is a perfect pangram for the [[Javanese script|Javanese]] script and is commonly used to order its letters in sequence.
