0 hugemonkey Posted May 18, 2010 Author Report Share Posted May 18, 2010 Missing? I see how you got that. It fits very well but it is not a compound word. hispanic sorry, not right but had to try... No need to apologize. I think folks are zeroing in on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 peace*out Posted May 19, 2010 Report Share Posted May 19, 2010 are the compound words spelled the exact way of the two combined put together? EX: could "treason" be an answer for the compound words "tree" and "son" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 hugemonkey Posted May 19, 2010 Author Report Share Posted May 19, 2010 are the compound words spelled the exact way of the two combined put together? EX: could "treason" be an answer for the compound words "tree" and "son" Good question. Yes, the compound words are spelled exactly like words that the clue provides. No puns or other wordplay type clues on this one. Of course the words are usually not the same meanings that the compound word answer might imply. Also, the words in the clue can correspond to words that, when put together, will make the answer but individually do not correspond to the exact words that answer implies. For example: dadpensicker - could be dad/pen/sicker or pa/ink/iller = painkiller. Hope that this is helpful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Guest Posted May 19, 2010 Report Share Posted May 19, 2010 (edited) are the compound words spelled the exact way of the two combined put together? EX: could "treason" be an answer for the compound words "tree" and "son" I'm pretty sure that hugemonkey intended the spelling to match, unlike my take on it, sorry if mine confused you, peace! I totally changed the rules... ...And I see that hm already answered you, as well, sorry! Edited May 19, 2010 by divinerebel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 hugemonkey Posted May 20, 2010 Author Report Share Posted May 20, 2010 dimwit? Nope. I know it's not a compound word, but I can't help but try: incense burner? I like your logic but, that's not it. daredevil? Yep, that's it. Uproar? Handbag? Sorry, Wilson, plainglazed already got Not what I was thinking for #3 either. Solid logic all around but I think that there are other answers that you will find to fit better. Your answers could be more bonus points. Hammock? That does fit, but I don't think the answer is a compound word. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
