Words with double 'i's in them

DAMMIT. We got that on a french test once.

I thought it looked really stupid having two 'i's in it. But I then it would have been the present conjugation... I stuck with étudions anyways. >:[

@above:
Infinitive -> stem -> add imperfect ending
étudier -> étudi -> étudiions

o.0 ive never written it like that.

I challenge you to find English words with two letter 'I's next to each other. French Example: étudiions.

Well you suck.

I so found them. :[

The challenge is to find words in English that have double i's. Finding words from other languages gets rid of the challenge and makes it well, pretty pointless. If I were to try finding a double with double i's in Viet, I think there aren't any. If there are, then there's not any that I can think of at the moment. Japanese is one of the easiest languages out there to have double i's. Nothing special. Forgot if Espanol has words with double i's, but I think there might be some too, not sure.

Without knowing anything at all about Spanish, I'd assume they have a fair amount of double ii words for the same reason French has some: Annoying Verb Conjugations. Both Romanic. I'd be surprised if the conjugations were radically different.

I bought them at Safeway, so I didn't actually make them. D;

[color="#000080"] There's almost no words with two i's in Spanish.

Actually, I have a hard time coming up with one. [/color]

mmm safeway cookies. I miss safeway. ;_;

Cancambo (before he edited Hawaii away)

I edited it out cause K!yO had it first, and you hadn't put him on the list yet. I assumed you weren't counting it, and I also I didn't want it to look like I hadn't really read the thread (cause I didn't ).
