There was an interview on the radio this week with someone involved with the
Canadian Oxford Dictionary, and one of the questions asked was about Q
always being followed by U in words, and were there any that didn't follow
that rule. One of the examples given was qiviut which is the fibre from the
Canadian Arctic Musk Ox. - Good to remember if you play scrabble, I always
seem to get the Q but nary a U in sight (along with the X and Z).
Best wishes to all
