dict

This program lets you search your Unix dictionary with a regex (PCRE).

Want to see words that have more than two vowels in a row? Try this:

$ dict -S '[aeiou]{3,}'

-S gets rid of the default behavior of matching a pattern from start. In regex terms, -S removes an implicit ^ anchor.

-f makes dict match the pattern at the end of the word.

-i turns on case-insensitivity.
