One of the most common pangrams in English is “The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog”. This pangram consists of 35 letters, including every letter from the alphabet.
Here are some more examples of English pangrams:

The English language uses the Latin Alphabet which consists of 26 letters. A “pure pangram” or a “perfect pangram” is a sentence that only consists of 26 letters, no more no less. It is the shortest pangram you will find. Most pure pangram make little sense and are not easily understood by native speakers.
Below are some examples:
- Blowzy night-frumps vex’d Jack Q.
- TV quiz drag nymphs blew JFK cox.
- Mr. Jock, TV quiz PhD, bags few lynx.
As you can see from the examples above, the sentences consist of all the 26 letters from the alphabet. Pure pangrams are obscure, as the main focus is to create a pangram, the focus is not to make a coherent sentence.
