In case you were wondering why the answer is 'H' and not 'G', look at the riddle again. And this time, really look.
"What is the seventh letter of the alphabet?" Did you see it? The seventh letter of 'THE ALPHABET'? If you start counting from T to H to E to A, the letter that comes seventh in line to form the words "the alphabet" is 'H'.
Humanity may not have all the answers. We may not know how the universe began or when the world will have a vaccine for coronavirus. But at least now, we all know what is the seventh letter in the alphabet.
