0 fabpig 143 Posted June 4, 2012 Report Share Posted June 4, 2012 wind is the only word that cannot be anagrammatised into another word Sing is the only word that can be pronounced only one way Quote Link to post Share on other sites

0 WitchOfSecrets 20 Posted June 4, 2012 Report Share Posted June 4, 2012 Yet another answer: Read. Removing the last letter of the other words gives a word in English - sin, win, lea, tea. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
0 bonanova 85 Posted June 4, 2012 Report Share Posted June 4, 2012 Another? Tear. Uniquely, removing the initial letter gives a word in English. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Some other reasons... most aren't that great: Only one with an L. Least value if you swap letters for their alphabetical position and add them up. Only one whose first letter isn't in the last half of the alphabet. Only one whose position in the list is ironic as it follows the rest. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
