Can you give one English word that uses the same vowel, not necessarily in a row, six times and that is the only vowel used in the word ?
I asked google what answers other people have found to the same question, and here are some other words it found (other than the ones already mentioned):
TATHAGATAGARBHA
RETELEMETERED
DEGENERESCENCE
CHRONONHOTONTHOLOGOS
Words with only one vowel are called univocalics (according to Dmitri Borgmann in
Language on Vacation). The longest such word is STRENGTHLESSNESSES, although it contains only 5 Es.
