Welcome to the Guess My Word blog. This is a place to discuss the words of the day chosen by Joon and Mike. This paragraph is here mostly as spoiler space. Here are today's words:
not sure what happened to you, but opera was my word, and vert/vertus brackets mike's word.
speaking of mike's word, i am not really sure it makes much sense to choose vertiginous instead of just vertigo. but i suppose i know the word so i should have tried it (i gave up at vertical/vertigo).
My bad, writing up the results. I had two wordlists on the screen and I glanced at the wrong one. Vert/vertus are the first and last words with the same four letters. The 31 words surrounding opera range from openhandedness to operate. I didn't screw up the other stats I reported.
The 31 words surrounding Mike's word range from Vertebrates to Vesica. 29 words start with the same 4 letters; 6 start with the same 6 letters.
ReplyDeleteThe 31 words surrounding joon's word range from vert to vertus. 63 words start with the same 4 letters. 42 start with the same 5 letters.
Really surprised that "opera" lies between vert and vertus. Must be some Italian spelling?
