Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. Find a 4-letter word that means to twist, to crank, or when it is your time to play, using only the letters from NOCTURNAL.

Answer: Turn

"Turn" has several meanings. It can be a circular motion, like what a wheel does, or a change of direction, and to take turns means to do something in order. There are also many expressions using "turn", like he "took a turn for the worse", or "his luck turned", or even "I just turned 12!"
2. Using only the letters in NOCTURNAL, find a 3-letter word that might be a crazy person or a cashew.

Answer: Nut

There are many kinds of nuts, like cashews, pistachios, peanuts, walnuts, macadamia nuts, and pecans, just to name a few. A nut can also be someone who is a little crazy (my mom calls me a nut all the time). Squirrels are known to eat nuts, their favorite being the acorn.
3. Find a 4-letter word, using only the letters found in NOCTURNAL, that is the smallest puppy in a litter.

Answer: Runt

The runt of the litter is usually the smallest, and tends not to grow as large as the other puppies will ("Clifford the Big Red Dog" being the exception). A litter of puppies can also be called a piddle. Piddle is also puppy pee.
4. Using only letters found in NOCTURNAL, find a 5-letter word where you might play basketball, or go on trial.

Answer: Court

To go to court means you will be put on trial. In court there is a judge, sometimes known as a mediator, and a jury of twelve people. They will decide whether you are guilty or not guilty. A court is also the place where you play basketball or tennis.
5. Find a 4-letter word that is a yummy food that is a variety of maize, using only letters found in NOCTURNAL.

Answer: Corn

Corn, or maize, grows on an ear, which contains the cob. Corn can be eaten on the cob, off the cob, and prepared in many ways. You can use it to make cornbread, cornmeal, and cornflour, popcorn, and you can even cut off the corn from the cob and use the cobs to make corncob jelly!
6. Using only letters found in NOCTURNAL, find a 3-letter word that means to slice, or a wound you might get from a piece of paper.

Answer: Cut

To slice is to cut, which breaks a larger piece into smaller pieces. Paper cuts are when you accidentally cut the skin with the edge of a piece of paper. Sometimes it bleeds, and sometimes it doesn't. But they certainly can hurt! So be careful...
7. Find a 5-letter word, using only letters found in NOCTURNAL, that means an eagle or falcon's claw.

Answer: Talon

Talons are those razor-sharp claws on many birds' feet. Many birds have them, especially birds of prey who need them to catch their meal.
8. Find an American word meaning 2,000 pounds, that is 3 letters, and uses only letters found in NOCTURNAL.

Answer: Ton

The British word for 'ton' is 'tonne', but there is no "E" in NOCTURNAL, so that can't be the answer! There are many different units that are called "tons", but for Americans, the most common is a very heavy weight of 2,000 pounds. An elephant can weigh 7 tons! That is about the weight of 80 people!
9. Using only letters from NOCTURNAL, what is a 3-letter word for a vehicle?

Answer: Car

"Car" is the term we most often use for an automotive vehicle. Cars are what we use to go places. They have four wheels (usually), and drive on the road. They can go over 100 miles an hour, although usually there are speed limits so you can't go that fast.
10. This is the longest word in the quiz! Using only the letters from NOCTURNAL, find a 6-letter word that is the box you get milk in.

Answer: Carton

At school, you usually can get a carton of milk or orange juice to drink. The dictionary describes a carton as a cardboard box.

And for a clever play on words, a 'car' can also weigh a 'ton'. ;-)
