Words with multiple Zs 1. jazz 2. Zenzizenzizenzic I ran across this word a couple of years ago and can’t resist a chance to use it. Per wiki: “The word, as well as the system[of mathematical notation], is obsolete except as a curiosity; the Oxford English Dictionary (OED) has only one citation for it. As well as being a mathematical oddity, it survives as a linguistic oddity: zenzizenzizenzic has more Zs than any other word in the OED”. ---
