The penultimate part of this weekend's EASTER quiz.

 

What bonuses, if any, can you maker using EASTER + M, EASTER + N, EASTER + O, EASTER + P, EASTER + Q and EASTER + R.

Again one of the 6 letters doesn't combine with EASTER to make a bonus. But which one ?

 

16 words to find, about 7-8 are everyday words.

EASTER + M : REMATES, RETEAMS, STEAMER, TEAMERS

EASTER + N : EARNEST, EASTERN, NEAREST, RATEENS, STERANE

EASTER + O : ROSEATE

EASTER + P : EPATERS, REPEATS, RETAPES

EASTER + Q : none 

 

EASTER + R : RETEARS, SERRATE, TEARERS       (ED : helpful hint here, there are all 'cutting' words).

Continuing this weekend's Easter quiz..

 

What seven letter words, if any, can you make from EASTER + F, EASTER + G, EASTER + H, EASTER + I, EASTER + J, EASTER + K, EASTER + L.

Again 16 words to find, 6-8 are everyday ones. 

At least one of the combinations doesn't make a word at all!

EASTER + F : AFREETS, FEASTER

EASTER + G : ERGATES, RESTAGE

EASTER + H : AETHERS, HEATERS, REHEATS

EASTER + I : AERIEST, SERIATE

EASTER + J : none

EASTER is one of the best 6 letter stems and yields many bonuses.

Over the next 4 days there will be 4 quizzes based on EASTER.

 

Part 1 - What bonuses, if any, can you make with EASTER + A, EASTER + B, EASTER + C, EASTER + D EASTER + E ?

 

A couple of hints for you... one of A/B/C/D/E doesn't make a bonus, there are 16 words for the other 4 letters. 

Of those 6-8 are everyday words.
