There seem to be times when Fred does not have enough to do, so he thinks up things such as this.
What word, in English, has four consecutive vowels all lined up.
Hint. There is one word that is a better answer than all others for this.... No cheating!

Another hint: There is a clue built into the question.

I am surprised no one got this. The clue is in the words "all lined up" The word is "queue."

There are, of course, many words with four consecutive vowels. There might be some with more? I suppose you have an argument that gooiest fits as an answer because of the context of being in this forum, but I don't think it fits in the context of the actual question.

Reminds me of the bookkeeper who spent his time searching for a word with three consecutive pairs of letters...

I know that one, but will keep quiet about it.
