There are 13 3 letter words listed below.

Add 2 different letters at the beginning of each word to make a normal, English word. (Admittedly one has a 'foreign undercurrent').

Each letter of the alphabet is used exactly once so some thought is needed as to which words you make.

For example if you choose to SW-EAR to cannot use the S to make SP-OKE or the W to make  WI-PED.

 

Hint : think about where the JQXZ may be, and whether any of the 3 letter words can only be extended to make a solitary 5 letter word.

 

AIL              ARF           ARS        BOO       CEP

EAR             IDE            ISM        OBE       OKE

ORD            OWN          PED

 

All of the answers in the above quiz are everyday words.
