    Aardvark, about, accept, add, aeroplane, afar, agog, ahoy, air, ajar, akimbo, almost, amicable, another, aorta, apple, aqua, art, ask, atlas, aura, average, away, axe, aye, azure. As demonstrated in the list above, all twenty-six letters of the alphabet can follow the letter A to create an acceptable English word. Does this work with any of the other twenty-five letters or is it unique to A?

    Question #126088. Asked by Aussiedrongo. (Jun 01 12 10:09 PM)


    nautilator

    Going through http://itools.subhashbose.com/wordfind/, there's o:

    Oasis, oblong, occupy, odd, oenophile, off, ogre, ohm, oil, ojime, okapi, old, omen, on, oolong, open, oquassa, origin, osmosis, other, ounce, ovation, owl, ox, oyster, ozone

    Most words don't start with two of the same letter -- of those that do, the link above came up with nothing for things starting with ez, iy, and lz.

    each, ebb, ectopic, eddy, eerie, effable, egg, eh, eider, eject, eke, elevate, embrace, enter, eohippus, epistle, equal, err, estimate, etch, eugenics, even, ewe, exit, eye, e-zine

    I admit the last one is a bit of a stretch (had to resort to a hyphen).

    There's also ezod: "1. ezod 1 up, 1 down
    Verb. To lose to someone with an unconventional strategy. Usually used in relation to video games.
