Words that begin and end with the same letter

For those counting, that is:

11,404 Words start with the same letter it ended with. This is out of 168,411 words in the Scrabble program I used.

6.77% of the words in the English language (between 1-15 letters long) match these parameters.

If nothing else, I am thorough! :slight_smile:

My vote goes to asemayo for the most aesthetically pleasing list. Now, if someone can make a haiku out of these, I’ll be even more impressed.

Whoops, make that aseymayo.

Thorough is hardly the *word * for it!! Golly, man, do you every do anything * else?? *
I thought of three rather far-fetched: “unimpromptu,” “Viv” (a girl’s name) and “zizz.”

Could you repost that list Satan? I think i missed a word there.

Hmm dont know if these two have been covered:

Academia
Anonna (custard apples)

I think that should qualify Satan as the poster with the longest posts on the SDMB.

Congrats are in order!

All praise Satan!!! Hail Satan! (This sounds so… EVIL)
