If a word conforms to a special rule, I call it a Samsaran Word™.

Use the examples below to find the rule.

Key:




It's in the vowels




Explanation:




Samsara words contain multiple sets of vowels which are repeated:
pIpElInE (IE-IE), AvErAgE (AE-AE), spOkEswOmEn (OE-OE), AntEjUrAmEntUm (AEU-AEU), AntIcApItAlIst (AI-AI-AI) etc.




Note:




As @el-guest pointed out, some of the non-samsaran words also fit this pattern (adequate, dilapidated), but they contain other vowels that are not repeated. Samsaran words contain exclusively repeated vowels.




Title:




Perhaps they are called Samsara words because Samsara is a repeated cycle of birth and death

    wEAthEr-bEAtEn does not follow the same pattern, because there is a 'th' between the first one, and only a 't' between the second EA_E.
