Pangram

A pangram is sometimes called a holoalphabetic sentence. This is from Greek, meaning "every letter" A pangram is a sentence which uses whole letter of the alphabet at least once. I do not know the reason why people make it.. However, it is interesting to me. Constructing a pangram that includes the fewest repeat letters possible can be a challenge..
I think that most country has pangrams with their own country's letters.

  • Examples
The quick brown fox jumps over a lazy dog. (English)

Gazeta publica hoje no jornal uma breve nota de faxina na quermesse. (Portuguese)

El pingüino Wenceslao hizo kilómetros bajo exhaustiva lluvia y frío, añoraba a su querido cachorro. (Spanish)

Portez ce vieux whisky au juge blond qui fume (French)
