Apparently there is only one word* in the English language that has 3 consecutive sets of double letters and is not hyphenated.

Bookkeeper.

And that one too.......................

But then again are those two words actually in the dictionary as words, or are they linked to the main word abstent/abstem?
eg. when you look up tender it mentions the word tenderness, as related to tender but not as a word in it's own right, if you get what I mean.

Abstemious is not linked to Abstem, which is a derivative of cyanide.

Pluto is the furthest from the sun.

Pluto, since 2006, has been deemed a Trans-Neptunian Object. Therefore not a planet.
