One scrabble word has "w" as its only vowel. Who can name it without Googling?

Hint: Mount Everest has one of them.

1. Had to google that, would never have guessed...

Glad I did cause I've never heard of that before. Though I have heard of the other spelling of it. Cool thanks.

2. Welsh scrabble maybe, but here we just call it a valley...

there's another word, though, that refers to a specific musical instrument. It's Welsh, too, but there's no translation.

3. "cwm", incidentally

4. I know! I know!

But that's because I studied glacial geology as an undergrad.

"cwm" is the word, and it's a cirque.

8. I need to remember this for Words With Friends

There is someone I play who always beats me.

It's gotten so I try random letters. Sometimes they make words that are accepted, sometimes not. But I'll try this one.

6. "a" is a vowel. So is "e". (nt)

7. Misunderstood the post

9. W isn't a vowel

10. Not in English much.

But English will adopt most anything so long as it fits in our simple unadorned alphabet.

This language take the word but leave the umlauts and other irritating little marks marks behind.

12. Technically, W is "u-u"

So, it's also a vowel

11. crwth

Oh, no, that's a musical instrument.

Of course, it's small enough that you could take one up Mt Everest and play it, I guess.
