bonanova Posted October 14, 2007 Report Share Posted October 14, 2007 Take four letters and arrange them into six differently spelled words. No proper names, abbreviations, etc ... you know the drill. Just ordinary words you'd find in any dictionary. Use each letter exactly once in each word. Enjoy!

0 Guest Posted October 15, 2007 Report Share Posted October 15, 2007 by four letters do you mean actually arranging the term "four letters" into 6 words or just pick any random word and find 6 alterations to it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Guest Posted October 16, 2007 Report Share Posted October 16, 2007 I think that by saying Take four letters and arrange them into six differently spelled words (emphasis added) the OP is pretty clearly talking about a word of four letters and not the term "four letters." If talking about the term, the subject would be singular not plural and the "them" would be "it." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 bonanova Posted October 16, 2007 Author Report Share Posted October 16, 2007 by four letters do you mean [1] actually arranging the term "four letters" into 6 words or [2] just pick any random word and find 6 alterations to it? [2], actually - so long as it has four letters. But [1] is intriguing, also. How about four letters becoming soul fretter / tours refelt / ferret louts or fur or let set since there are only four vowels, it's tough to make six words ...

0 Guest Posted October 17, 2007 Report Share Posted October 17, 2007 I also found this list: [*]NOES[/*:m:3728f] [*]NOSE[/*:m:3728f] [*]EONS[/*:m:3728f] [*]ENOS[/*:m:3728f] [*]SONE[/*:m:3728f] [*]SENO[/*:m:3728f] but it is only valid if you allow either names [ENOS] or foreign words [sENO].

Question
bonanova
Take four letters and arrange them into six differently spelled words.
No proper names, abbreviations, etc ... you know the drill.
Just ordinary words you'd find in any dictionary.
Use each letter exactly once in each word.
Enjoy!
