"When in Rome, do as the Romans do"
"Rome wasn't built in a day"
"All roads lead to Rome"
Gotta be the triumvirate of Rome idioms
English
Everyone in Rome is racing to complete the 4x7 challenge (eat all four pastas of Rome atop all seven hills of Rome)

@william_lpp One quadruplication has 4 so naturally multiple quadruplications have 8
English
@aaaronson So "quadruplications" is an octuplication, of sorts

QUADRUPLICATIONS contains the 8 contiguous letters of the alphabet NOPQRSTU

@squire_mlord @fuckkjackk I looked through the words for each substring and picked a good one
English
@aaaronson @fuckkjackk But then you get a list of all words that contain each substring, right? For your image in OP what criteria did you use to choose one word over another? Is there code missing?
English
Word with the longest alphabetic substring starting with each letter
English
@aaaronson And if the alphabet wrapped back around to the front, how would that change things?
English
new alphabet headcanon that r s t and u are all best friends

Word with the longest alphabetic substring starting with each letter

English
@aaaronson Could I see the underlying code for this?? Is it an any(in)? Learning python and this is cool
English
@aaaronson Similarly “deipnosophist” has the most pairs of consecutive letters (DE, NO, OP, HI, ST)
