Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. THEHANGRE

Answer: hang in there

Sometimes when things get tough you just have to be persistent and wait until they get better.

2. ____________________________ LOOK __________________________ ________________________ BRIGHT SIDE _____________________

Answer: look on the bright side

It's always a good idea to be optimistic and cheerful in the face of unpleasant circumstances. But some might say that in the movie "Monty Python's Life of Brian", singing "Always Look on the Bright Side of Life" while being crucified might be stretching the sentiment a bit.

3. NO 20

Answer: know the score

'Know the score' can mean understanding the situation and what is likely to happen or it can mean to know the point accumulation in a sports contest. If you chose 'no score' as the answer you know it means that no points have been accumulated.

4. EM BUR

Answer: rub me the wrong way

Rubbing someone the wrong way is a way of saying that they are irritated or upset about something going on around them. The phrase likely came from rubbing a cat's fur in the wrong direction. The cat doesn't like it and you may end up getting swiped.

5. AALLLL

Answer: all in all

This phrase is used when thinking about all aspects of something. Similar to 'on the whole' or 'at the end of the day'.

6. VEST144MENT

Answer: gross investment

Gross investment is all the money you have spent for stocks, bonds, goods - what have you - not taking depreciation into account.

7. ____________________________ BOUNCE __________________________ __________________________ BANDWAGON _________________________

Answer: jump on the bandwagon

This means joining others because something has become popular or it could be something you weren't in favor of but changed your mind and decided to join in.

8. _______________________________ K ___________________________ _______________________________ C ___________________________ _______________________________ U ____________________________ _______________________________ T ____________________________ _______________________________ S ____________________________

Answer: stuck up

Being snobbish, conceited, arrogant, feeling better than others, pompous, pretentious are all synonyms for 'stuck up'.

9. BED BED

Answer: double bed

A twin bed refers to one that is 38 in/96 cm wide. A double bed is 54 in/137 cm wide - still a bit cozy for two people.

10. ____________________________ JOURNEY ________________________ ___________________________ UR TONGUE _______________________

Answer: trip over your tongue

Here's another question where you have to use a synonym plus a texting homophone . If you're having difficulty saying or pronouncing something people might say you're tripping over your tongue.
