I thought carrot, but because it is the only word w/ 2 of the same letters in a row (caRRot). Nice 1.
Great teaser!
Very nice teaser. I must admit it took me quite a while to get.
I liked that one. Was some logic to it and not just a shot in the dark at an answer.

Thought it might be swing as it's the only word with vowel 'i'. The teaser was good though.
there real good challanges.
