| I found a great many, at least seven and I enjoyed this Teaser very much. Will add it to favorites. It was the words that I did not answer correctly that made this Teaser somewhat difficult, not very but somewhat. Excellent work, yet simple to enjoy  |

| Great teaser! I missed "Latin" (duh!), but thought of a few other words that could be made, like "seven" or "stein".
