As a special treat here is a quiz set by Keith.
The quiz is based on opening racks played on his Scrabble CD ROM High Vocabulary level.
Each of the following racks makes just 1 6 letter word :
- TGLEOUO
- ERSOETE
Each of these racks makes 2 6 letter words :
- TERNIJV
- TICRINN
- TOLRACD
These racks make at least 3 6 letter words and 2 of them make a bonus too!
- DHRNYOE (there are 6 !)
- OUNGIMT (4)
- OSRMJET (3)
- BNEDUAN (3)
- MHAOILT (3 6s and a 7 letter word too!)
- IDNULIN (2 6s, and a 7 letter word too!)
This is quite a hard quiz so if you get 8-12 you are doing well!
