Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. CL + first person of "is' = edible bivalve.

Answer: Clam

CL + am = clam. "Clam" can be used in several ways. "The restaurant was known for its delicious clam [adjective] chowder and steamed clams [noun]." "When he was being questioned, he clammed up [verb] and said nothing." It can also be used idiomatically: "She was as happy as a clam."

2. CL + goal = to demand by right.

Answer: Claim

CL + aim = claim. "Claim" can function as a verb ("Her father's will allowed her to claim his estate."), or a noun ("Her claim to the estate was contested by her brother.")

3. CL + a substance in which some fossils are preserved = climb.

Answer: Clamber

CL + amber = clamber. "Clamber" serves as both a verb ("He clambered up the tree using his hands and his feet" and a noun ("The clamber up the cliff was a difficult one").

4. CL + electrical unit = to fasten together.

Answer: Clamp

CL + amp = clamp. "The clamp [noun] held the two pieces together to allow the glue to dry." "He clamped [verb] the two pieces together until the glue dried."

5. CL + fire residue = strike, face, or confront.

Answer: Clash

CL + ash = clash. "Clash" functions as a verb ("His views clashed with those of the Major.") or a noun ("The duel began with a clash of swords.")

6. CL + poisonous snake = fasten together.

Answer: Clasp

CL + asp = clasp. "Clasp" has several uses. "He clasped [verb] the ball close to his chest." "The necklace fastened with a clasp [noun]."

7. CL + donkey = a group.

Answer: Class

CL + ass = class. "Class" can act as a verb ("The quiz required her to class like animals together under the headings mammal or reptile."), a noun ("The teacher told the students in the class to begin the test."), or an adjective ("As a performer, he was a class act.").

8. CL + two-letter abbreviation for an international news agency = applaud.

Answer: Clap

AP = Associated press. CL + ap = clap. "Clap" is sometimes a verb ("The audience clapped with enthusiasm over her performance.") and sometimes a noun ("The loud clap of thunder startled him.")

9. CL + a word meaning loving = noisy or rowdy.

Answer: clamorous

CL + amorous = clamorous. The clamorous [adjective] crowd interrupted the speaker. The audience reacted clamorously [adverb] when the Senator suggested that a tax increase was needed.

10. CL + abbreviation for advertisement = dressed.

Answer: clad

CL + ad = clad. "Clad" is usually a verb (Robin Hood and his men were clad in Lincoln green). But it can function as an adjective, usually in combination with another word "The village was noted for its vine-clad cottages."
