Jumps not jumped. You are missing an 's' otherwise. I'm amazed how common this mistake is 😁

In France, we have "Portez ce vieux whisky au juge blond qui fume" ("Bring that old whiskey to the blond smoking judge") and I find it really... french since we manage to put alcohol and tobacco in an alexandrine just to make a pangram.

I use "grumpy wizards make a toxic brew for the jovial queen".

erm, it's "jumps" over the lazy dog, not "jumped".

"Zażółć gęślą jaźń" uses all the diacritics in Polish and was used to test code pages.

This post genuinely inspired me a year ago and now I use that sentence instead of the lazy dog one

Pangrams! My goto has been How quickly daft jumping zebras vex! for a little while, it's just so silly.

In Sweden we use this weird old sentence:

"Flygande bäckasiner söka hwila på mjuka tuvor",

It doesn't even contian all letters, so you have to add "QXZ" to the end to complete the test....

I said that phrase and summoned a Gothic Demon

Sphinx coolness is not enough face to face with two cute animals in one sentence.

Well, jackdaws love my big sphinx of quartz. So there.

Because you don't really use/see sphinx or quartz much in daily life. Much better to use a sentence that's easier to write

It's easier to remember?

I mean, I'm not going to discount the cool factor of the alternative, but I already forget what it is. Meanwhile the quick brown fox has been stuck in my head for years after only hearing of it a couple of times at most.

this whole exercise is really meant to exist in schools. like, schools for young kids.

we're adults arguing about which nursery rhyme is cooler while forgetting that this isn't for us. it needs to be easily understood by children. that's why we use one with only short easy words.

even the sentence structure of the second one is complicated and hard for a child to remember.

oh...

Leads to cooler art too

qwertyuiopasdfghjklzxcvbnm is my favorite word

The hungry purple dinosaur ate the kind, zingy fox, the jabbering crab, and the mad whale and started vending and quacking.

One letter shorter (28) and you've got "Waltz, bad nymph, for quick jigs vex!" I prefer that to the 27 letter "Quick nymph bugs vex fjord waltz."

And the only couple perfect pangrams listed are "Mr. Jock, TV quiz PhD, bags few lynx." or "Cwm fjord-bank glyphs vext quiz" (which even given the obscure words seems like it's missing an article before quiz).

You missed an S

It doesn't have the same flow.
