What word is pronounced and spelled the same in every language?

This is a bit of a trick question! There's no word that is pronounced and spelled exactly the same in *every* language.

Here's why:

* Different alphabets: Languages use different alphabets (or writing systems), so even if a sound is the same, the spelling might vary.

* Pronunciation variations: Even within the same language, pronunciation can change depending on the dialect or region.

* No universal language: There's no single language that everyone speaks.

However, some words come close!

* Numbers: Numbers like "one", "two", "three" often have similar pronunciations and spellings across many languages.

* Interjections: Words like "oh" or "ah" are often shared across languages.
