Suffixes to the rescue! Love this series.

I could have sworn that "otherly" was a word. Seems I made it up...

Maybe you're combining the words "other worldly"?

I think the time limit is really low too. I don't generally like how quizzes have low time limits though so that's just my personal preference

If you're looking for a quicker strategy, I would encourage you to find short 4 letter verbs that can simply add -ing, or 5 letter verbs that can be added -ed to it. Zoom through a bunch that way

Fun. I came up with the same strategy. After awhile I just started putting in random four-letter words to see if they can be "ing"ed. It usually worked!

It's crazy how, despite there being significantly more options for a correct answer, this one is harder than the four-letter word quiz

Zamboni is a brand name. The name for the machine is an "ice resurfacer".

Fun! How about excluding plurals? Otherwise almost any six-letter noun qualifies as well, just by sticking an s on it.

Pizzazz is a legitimate seven letter word, however it is not a possible play in Scrabble. With only one Z and two blank tiles in the game, it isn't possible to make a four z word.

One of the quirks of using Scrabble as the dictionary for these quizzes. I am impressed that Pizzazz was the word you thought of!

Aug 29, 2023
Yeah, I don't know why that's a piece of trivia that has stuck in my head. I am sure there are other words that are unplayable in Scrabble, but that's the one I know.

BTW, thanks for the fun and challenging puzzle! I leaned too hard on six letter plurals though. :)

I think the time limit (3:00 minutes) is well-chosen. I usually don't like "time pressure" unless that's the point of the quiz, but this is one where, with too much time, the quiz is just too flabby because there's so many answers. Less than 3 and it would just be all about time pressure; more than 3 and it's too easy. This is one quiz (besides the speed typing ones) where the time limit is an integral part of the challenge but it's not just fast typing.

If English is there, then why not other languages such as Marathi, Burmese or Persian for example.

Blame Scrabble, it treats "english" as a normal noun, unlike the proper noun referring to the language of English.

Four-letter verbs + -ing is the way to go here.
