Polish pangram
[edit]The best Polish (PL) pangram is: Pójdźże, kiń tę chmurność w głąb flaszy!
It has every letter from the Polish alphabet and each letter occurs only once
Hungarian pangram
[edit]The Hungarian one only gives you all accented characters, but only uses those accented vowels: árvíztűrő tükörfúrógép (flood-enduring mirror drilling machine). Not a true pangram, but since ő and ű are not well-liked by fonts, this is a good stress test for them.
We need to find another French pangram.
