Can anybody please help me with the answer to this? I'm pretty sure it has something to do with the elements, but not sure what the sequence is....
What are the next seven letters or letter sets in this sequence -

O,AL,AR,AS,AG,IN.....?

But there are no elements 'IN' or 'AS' - Periodic Table.

Oh, er... them.

Ha, ha. Yes, well... that table must have changed since I looked at it last. Red Face

Well there sure are a lot in the list that start with 'A.' Think there's any significance in that?

I also notice quite a few number repetitions: 8 - 3 - 8 - 3, and there's two ones and two threes and two fours.

Oh, all are as again. Perhaps it goes like this: O, AL, AR, AS, AG, IN, O, AL, AR, AS, AG, IN...hmm.

Just worked out the answer, it's the elements that start with vowels, in order.

i-eu-er-os-ir-au-at

Thanks for your help!

Ah! So simple. What does i-eu-er-os-ir-au-at mean though?

i-eu-er-os-ir-au-at is the next seven letter sets of the sequence. They are the elements from the periodoc table.

Ah, the next seven of course. Thanks for clarifying.
