I start with an 'e', end with an 'e', and contain letters representing every continent on Earth in my spelling. What am I?
An envelope
An envelope starts and ends with the letter 'e'. Inside, it holds a letter or message intended to be sent across the globe (alluding to continents). Wait, no—the riddle hints at wordplay: 'An envelope' contains letters, but more simply, the word itself is 'envelope'.
