Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. Adjective meaning striking or impressive OR a type of officer.

Answer: arresting

2. Weirder, odder.

Answer: stranger

Or in the words of some, just a friend you haven't met. :D

3. Attics

Answer: garrets

Actually this reminds me of Mrs. Garrett from "The Facts of Life" (and "Diff'rent Strokes," too) but alas, the spelling is not the same.

4. Something irritating _____ on your nerves.

Answer: grates

Other grates are the barred kind you might see in various places.

5. It's not polite to do this.

Answer: stare

Also point, but that's not really workable given the word we were using. Other anagrams here include "tears," "rates," and "tares," to name a few.

6. Counterweight, counterbalance.

Answer: tare

This term is often used in chemistry. But tare also refers to the seed of certain plants (vetch). I probably should have just used "tear" for this clue. Or "rate."

7. Organ for hearing or a spike of corn.

Answer: ear

Other anagrams here would be "are" and "era."

8. Egyptian sun god.

Answer: Ra

Another anagram could have been "ar," the spelling of the letter "r."

9. New word!! If you have made misleading/evil remarks about someone, you have ____ him.

Answer: maligned

Not a good thing to do.

10. Maimed, crushed.

Answer: mangled

Disturbing mental pictures sometimes come with this word. Let's move on.

11. Earrings sometimes do this.

Answer: dangle

Another anagram could be, "Glenda," a woman's name. Or "angled."

12. To gather or take in information.

Answer: glean

Glean can also mean picking up after a reaper. Check out the famous painting "The Gleaners" by the French artist Jean Millet.

13. A valley or dale.

Answer: glen

Which reminds me, Glen Campbell's song "Gentle on My Mind" is really good. Mellow...

14. Part of the body or part of a trip.

Answer: leg

Or another anagram could be "gel."

15. Mode of transportation.

Answer: el

In Chicago, the el provides transportation from the Loop (downtown) to various areas around the city and into the suburbs.
