Answer: Empowerring

This is 'EMPOWERING' with only one 'R'. Check the others on spell-check on Word if you don't believe me. Three cheers for doing my quiz (some to me too, for using over two months to write it)! Hopefully I will write the rest of this series (of one missing vowel) sometime (inspired by Perec's French novel missing 'E'). Until then, enjoy your quizzing!
