Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. Take a feline and the fifth letter of the alphabet. Add a word meaning to ascend and insert 'go' for a word meaning to classify or sort into groups (UK English spelling).

Answer: Categorise

Cat, E and rise with 'go' inserted. All cats, big or small, are felines, while rise means to go to a higher place. Inserting 'go' after the letter e creates the word categorise.

T categorise something means to place it in a group with items sharing the same characteristics.
2. Take the French words for mountain and sea. Add the 25th letter of the alphabet and insert 'go' for a British WW2 general, or a US state capital.

Answer: Montgomery

Mont, mer and Y, with 'go' inserted. Mont is the French word for mountain, as in Mont Blanc, while mer means sea - Debussy wrote a piece of music called 'La Mer'. Adding the letter Y and inserting 'go' creates Montgomery.

Bernard Montgomery was a successful British general during the Second world War and Montgomery is the name of the state capital of Alabame.
3. Take a word for depart and an abbreviation for the Royal Navy. Add the surname of the French author of 'J'Accuse', or a former Chelsea footballer, and insert 'go' for an Italian cheese.

Answer: Gorgonzola

Go, RN and Zola (Emile or Gian-Franco) with 'go' inserted. Depart is a synonym for the key word in the quiz, 'go', and the Royal Navy is shortened to RN. The two men share the surname Zola and inserting another 'go' creates the cheese called Gorgonzola.

This cheese comes from Italy and refers to a blue cheese created from cows' milk.
4. Take a word meaning 'in favour of' and a shade of brown. Add the chemical symbols for iodine and sulphur and the letter denoted by 'Tango' and insert 'go' for the leading person in a story.

Answer: Protagonist

Pro, tan, I, S & T with 'go' inserted. Pro, meaning 'for', is the opposite of anti, meaning 'against'. Tan is a shade of brown or browning of the skin by exposure to sunlight, and iodine and sulphur add i and s, with t for tango completing the clues. Inserting 'go' gives the answer of protagonist.

The word means the hero of a particular story - the villain is the antagonist.
5. Take a prefix meaning 'single', add the direction opposite to north west and insert 'go' for an Indian mammal (as featured in Kipling's 'Jungle Book').

Answer: Mongoose

Mono and SE, with 'go' inserted (as in Rikki-Tikki-Tavi). Mono can start words such as monopoly or monotone, and means 'only one'. North west is abbreviated to NW so the opposite is SE and inserting 'go' in there creates the word mongoose.

The mongoose is a mammal found mainly in Africa and Asia. It is known to eat snakes, including some of the most deadly found in the regions where it lives.
6. Take an abbreviation for doctor and one of the indefinite articles. Add a two-winged insect and insert 'go' for another insect, found around ponds.

Answer: Dragonfly

Dr, an and fly with 'go' inserted. Doctor is often abbreviated to Dr, with 'an' being one of the two indefinite articles. The insect is a fly and including 'go' creates the dragonfly.

Dragonflies tend to hover over ponds and are attractive insects, particularly when the sun shines through their wings creating an iridescent effect.
7. Take the standard score in golf and one of the indefinite articles. Then insert 'go' for a shining example of excellence.

Answer: Paragon

Par and an with 'go' inserted. Par refers to the number of strokes that should be taken on each hole on the course and for the round as a whole. The two indefinite articles are 'an' and 'a', and you needed 'an'. With 'go' inserted, you create the word paragon.

A paragon is an ideal or perfect example and is someone to aspire to be. It can also refer to an especially fine diamond.
8. Take a word meaning everything and the first name of South Park's Cartman. Add a short name for Alan and insert 'go' for an adjective meaning symbolic or figurative.

Answer: Allegorical

All, Eric and Al, with 'go' inserted. All is a synonym for everything or everybody, Eric Cartman is the character from the television show in which he was regularly killed off (and resurrected) while Alan is likely to be called Al. With go inserted, the answer is allegorical.

Allegorical refers to allegories which are abstract representations. Many fairy or folk tales use allegories to teach lessons.
9. Take the abbreviation for Missouri and the international car registration letters for Holland, Italy and Austria. Then insert 'go' for Ghengis Khan's home country.

Answer: Mongolia

MO, NL, I and A with 'go' inserted. MO is the short form of Missouri and the three international identifiers are NL, I and A. With 'go; inserted you get the country of Mongolia.

Mongolia is a landlocked country in Asia, bordering Russia and China. It is known for its steppes, the Gobi Desert and nomadic people.
10. Take a word meaning to irritate or provoke, and the 20th letter of the alphabet. Add a word for 'in the direction of' and insert 'go' for an opera by Verdi.

Answer: Rigoletto

Rile, T and to, with 'go' inserted. If you rile someone, you annoy them, while T is the twentieth letter of the alphabet and to indicates the direction. Inserting 'go' creates 'Rigoletto'.

Verdi was a prolific composer of operas, with 'La Traviata', 'Falstaff' and 'Aida' among them. 'Rigoletto' was first performed in 1851 with the title character being a court jester. His master is a lecherous duke, who sets his eyes of the jester's daughter, Gilda.
