Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. Descriptive of something which is fake or duplicitous. Contains the letters a, d, u, l & t in any order.

Answer: fraudulent

frAUDuLenT

It isn't surprising that words related to the example also contain the relevant letters, as they often stem from the same or similar roots. Sometimes, however, the link is a little more coincidental. So if a company engages in fraudulent practices, it could lead to DefAULT of liabilities, or assets being regULATeD, or even LiqUiDATed.

2. In reference to an urbane person, or land ready for raising crops. Contains the letters a, d, u, l & t in any order.

Answer: cultivated

cULTivAteD

A cultivated person may be vAULTeD into prominence, and their movements go UnTrAmeLleD, but they may still be considered TrADUcibLe, or even viewed as a bULleTheAD!

3. In medicine, a type of diagnostic or therapeutic process, sometimes associated with pregnancy. Contains the letters a, d, u, l & t in any order.

Answer: ultrasound

ULTrAsounD

Which may be used to discover DiverTicULA, though hopefully nothing actually mUTiLAteD.

4. Having reduced friction, or (slang usage) having become intoxicated. Contains the letters a, d, u, l & t in any order.

Answer: lubricated

LUbricATeD

If their legs were lubricated, male crickets and grasshoppers might not sTriDULAte - and how peaceful summer would be!

5. Someone who adheres to a basic set of principles or ideas, often religious in nature. Contains the letters a, d, u, l & t in any order.

Answer: fundamentalist

fUnDAmenTaList

Fundamentalism of different kinds must be evALUaTeD case-by-case, and of course does not always involve iDoLATroUs behaviour.

6. The collection of Jewish tradition and law. Contains the letters a, d, u, l & t in any order.

Answer: talmud

TALmUD

As far as my research went, the only six-letter word including 'adult' - well, except for 'adults' of course! *now I just sit back and wait for someone to prove my research didn't go far enough!*

7. Descriptive of a person who is accomplished in many areas, or of something with many sides. Contains the letters a, d, u, l & t in any order.

Answer: multifaceted

mULTifAceteD

Not to add to the sense of ADnUbilaTed meaning, but of course not only people can be multifaceted. A cut gem, for instance, is readily cALcUlaTeD as being AngULaTeD.

8. Implanted with a disease agent to stimulate resistance (to the disease). Contains the letters a, d, u, l & t in any order.

Answer: inoculated

inocULATeD

Making your blood, as with anything ADULTerated, open to accusations of having been DeNATuraLised. But I'd rather be a little diluted than a lot sick or even dead!

9. Descriptive of something which expresses or confers praise. Contains the letters a, d, u, l & t in any order.

Answer: laudatory

LAUDaTory or ADULaTory

Often involving assorted pLAUDiTs and other signs of ADULaTion.

10. Descriptive of something which can be copied exactly. Contains the letters a, d, u, l & t in any order.

Answer: duplicatable

DUpLicATable

Could be photoDUpLicATed, or even qUADrupLicaTed. DefLoccUnATion, of course, is a chemical process, and so ripe for DisqUALificaTion as to relevance, but it's such a great word I had to fit it in somewhere!
