Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. Let's start with the word ax, which is used to chop wood. Change one letter and get the abbreviation for a stomach muscle

Answer: ab

The word ax can also be spelled "axe", which can be useful if you need a filler word when you are writing a crossword puzzle.

Abs or Abdominals are the muscles in your stomach region. If your exercise regimen has left them well-developed, congratulations! You have the famed "six-pack abs".
2. Change one letter and get a Siberian river

Answer: ob

The Ob may have a short name but it is one of the longest rivers in the world at 2,300 miles. The city of Novosibirsk is on its banks. The Trans-Siberian Railroad crosses the Ob at this point. The Ob terminates where it empties into the Arctic Ocean.
3. Change one letter and get a word often found with either

Answer: or

The phrasing "either x or y" suggests a choice between the two. The related phrasing "neither x nor y" suggests a more negative choice where you are rejecting both options. The word or can also be used in the phrasing " x and/or y" where you might be talking about x, you might be talking about y, and you might be talking about x and y.
4. Change one letter and get a Sumerian city

Answer: ur

The city of Ur probably dates from the fourth millennium BCE. It was located in Mesopotamia ("the land between the rivers"). In ancient times, Ur was a city on the coast of the Persian Gulf. Silting of the rivers, however, has led to the site of Ur now being several miles inland.
5. Change one letter and get a negating prefix

Answer: un

Un is a prefix that essentially means "not". Unusual means not usual and unkind not kind. UN could also refer to the United Nations, an international organization. "UN" is also a 2009 album by Dan Black.
6. Change one letter and get an indefinite article

Answer: an

An is considered an indefinite article along with a. A would be used with words that begin with a consonant sound. An would be used with words that begin with a vowel sound. A and an are used when you are not referring to a particular object or idea. The would be used if you were referring to a particular object or idea.
7. Change one letter and get an abbreviation for a commercial

Answer: ad

Ad is short for an advertisement, which is used to bring public attention to your product or idea. A commercial (like you would see on television or hear on radio) is a type of advertisement. AD could also refer to an abbreviation for the Latin phrase "anno domini" which means "In the Year of the Lord".
8. Change one letter and get a Sullivan who hosted a television variety show.

Answer: ed

Ed Sullivan (1901-1974) was the long-time host of "The Ed Sullivan Show" a television variety show that aired on CBS from 1948 to 1971. Many acts from the Beatles, to Elvis to the Muppets, gained notoriety and/or fame in the United States from an appearance on "The Ed Sullivan Show".
9. Change one letter and get how one might describe a former spouse.

Answer: ex

Ex is suggestive of ex-husband or ex-wife (in both cases a former spouse). A person is likely to describe an ex with a certain amount of negative language--after all the person is a former spouse. The term ex could also refer to an ex-boyfriend or an ex-girlfriend for which the other information could also apply.
10. Change one letter and get a bullock

Answer: ox

An ox is a castrated male cattle and can also be called a bullock. An ox is often more docile than a bull due to a reduction of testosterone in the body. If I heard the term "ox", my first thought would be teams of oxen (the plural) hauling your wagon across the United States in "The Oregon Trail" computer game.
