<blockquote type="cite"><span>“The word "Utah" has four letters. It is the name of a state in the western United States, known for its natural beauty, including parks like Arches National Park and Bryce Canyon National Park. The state was named after the Ute

<blockquote type="cite"><span>“I apologize if my previous response was unclear. I did not mean to imply that the word "Utah" is not a valid word or that it does not refer to the state in the United States. My previous response was intended to address the specific

I apologize if my previous response was confusing. Please let me know if you have any other questions.</span><br>
