Obscure Scrabble Words

[Edina Street]

Any other online scrabble players here? If so, what are the most obscure words that you know? My favourite has to be EUOUAES, also spelled EVOVAES, and equally valid in the SOWPODS dictionary. A great way to get rid of vowels as well.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euouae

Euouae (/juːˈuːiː/ (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Help:IPA/English); sometimes spelled Evovae)[1] (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euouae#cite_note-1) is an abbreviation (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abbreviation) used as a musical mnemonic (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mnemonic) in Latin psalters (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Psalter) and other liturgical books of the Roman Rite (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liturgical_books_of_the_Roman_Rite).
