ONE WORD RIDDLE... No googling... :lol:

Here is a brain teaser for you.

What if this was the only question on the exam to pass high school English and earn your diploma? Would you graduate?

What nine letter word in the English language is still a word when eight letters are removed, one by one?

Take a few minutes to try and come up with a nine-letter word that fits

I am very interested in the responses to this. I'm sure the results could be quite startling.

Just for Squiddy....

STARTLING

(Try it! Remove a letter – one at a time – to create common words all the way to a one-letter word!)



Try THIS one....


A plane travels at a speed of 400 miles per hour for 1200 miles, and then returns by the same route at a speed of 300 miles per hour. What is the average speed for the total trip?
