Trivia: What three-vowel combination makes up the French word for “water”?
Oui
Aoi
Eau
Iao
The correct answer is Eau
So why is this answer correct? : Finding an English word consisting of just three vowels is a rarity, but in French, it’s common. Take “eau,” the French word for “water.” “Eau” is pronounced like the letter “o,” but be careful when you say it, as it sounds similar to the French word “au,” which means “the.”
