What is that 9 lettered word
Starting with F.
Having 5 vowels?
Answer
FACETIOUS
Facetious is an adjective that means "inappropriately humorous". It can also be used in a less negative way to mean "amusing" or, more negatively, to describe someone as "treating serious issues lightly".
For example, "I make so much money that we never have to worry – I'm being facetious".
The word facetious comes from the French facétie, "joke," and it has come to describe a joke with a little drop of sarcasm. It is used to simply mean "funny and witty," but now it often implies that someone is being inappropriately funny about a serious topic.
facetious is one of the only two common words in the English language that have all five vowels appearing in their correct order
The other one is
Abstemious meaning restraint especially in the eating of food or drinking of alcohol
