Man I couldn't spell "venison". I tried "vennison and "venisson and couldn't figure out why it didn't work

I kept typing in "Hungry" and "Sad" and "bad hunter" for Person who uses no animal products but it was not working. Don't know why.

I thought maybe that was because your guesses didn't start with the letter V, but then I tried "Very annoying" and it didn't work either...

Pfffft! Always the same. Couldn't remember the term the English word someone who eats no animal produce; then slapped myself on the forehead when I saw 'vegan'. Voilà also left me feeling "duh". Because it's in French (my language) it didn't even cross my mind. Oh well. I do love how these tests force me to rake my mind.

I feel like voila is used in English for a slightly different purpose than the original French, perhaps that's why the clue didn't help you much

I'm not certain where it falls in the hierarchy of titles... but could 'viceroy' be acceptable for the 'viscount' clue?
+1
Level 75
May 23, 2014
Viceroy is not a title of nobility. It is a ruling representative of the government, often in a colony. The English peerage titles are baron, viscount, earl, marquess, and duke.

I couldn't spell viscount, I thought it was vicount.
+1
Level 72
Apr 14, 2016
only reason I knew that answer was because a character in a book I'm reading is a viscount. Otherwise I wouldn't have even thought of it, let alone been able to spell it.

Not your fault. It is pronounced VIcount, so your spelling of it is understandable. (Another indication of the many "silent" letters

in the English language which drive some of us to drink! )

I did that too. I also tried to say vestament.

Nov 11, 2019
divantilya, I hesitate to say this, because of the risk of driving you more strongly towards the bottle, but "Vicount" in English would be pronounced with the "i" as in "sin", not as in "Viscount". It needs the "s" to obtain the right pronunciation. Sorry.

How do you reach that conclusion? Viper, violin, vile, vice (or vise), virus all have the long i sound.

A porch without a roof is not a porch. It is a deck or a stoop. When I googled the definition of porch, the first five entries from different dictionary sources all defined it as some kind of covered area. A better clue would have been to just use: A porch.

Level 77
Nov 5, 2015
The only time I've ever heard of a porch without a roof was after a hurricane blew the roof away. Every porch has a roof, otherwise it's just a deck. Without giving the answer away, Wikipedia describes it as "a roofed, open-air gallery, or porch," which I suggest would make a much better clue.

Whenever I spell something wrong it's not accepted even though these quizzes in general accept the weirdest spellings. How about accepting "vallet" as well?

As an aside to my admitted bad spelling, dictionary.com seems to agree with me that Veranda doesn't have an "h" at the end. Did I mispell it completely, or is it not accepted without the "h"? If it was the "h" that kept me from getting that, then you should really take "veranda" as well.

veranda is accepted.

That's ironic that Veranda is not accepted since the quiz makers usually lop off the "h" in words that have an "h" at the end (e.g. Riyadh).

Thanks to my physics teacher for this one: Big whirls have little whirls

That feed on their velocity;

And little whirls have lesser whirls

And so on to viscosity.

Always knew it would come in handy one day!

A vegetarian is someone who doesn't eat meat, but is willing to eat other animal products that don't involve killing the animal (like eggs or dairy products). A vegan won't eat any animal products, period.
