-straw
Language brain teasers are those that involve the English language. You need to think about and manipulate words and letters.
Can you determine what word goes in front of these words?
-straw, -draft, -episode, -Frontier, -curtain
Answer
Final.
The final straw, the final draft (my favourite), the final episode, the 'Final Frontier' (a UK TV show), and the final curtain (another way of saying the end).

| I like it. The "Frontier" kinda gave it away I found, But I liked it. |

| I enjoyed this one. Although the -straw gave it away for me. I heard thats the 'final straw' young lady so many times in my life...  |

| Easy-ish but still fun; well done. [I usually say, and hear 'last straw' but I guess final is correct.] |

| For some reason, the first word I saw, -curtain, I immediately thought of "final". Strange how the brain works sometimes. -Frontier just confirmed it. |

| This was really great. Easy, but a lot of fun. I didn't know about Final Frontier being a TV show in the UK. I thought of another TV show talking about the "Final Frontier". *cue shot of the U.S.S. Enterprise swooshing across the screen* One thing that might've thrown some people off would be " -Fantasy". My favorite video game series. But great teaser. And that's my FINAL answer. |

| I've also heard 'last straw'. 'Curtain' gave it to me, confirmed by 'Frontier'. Took only a few seconds, but very enjoyable. |

| I got stuck on "last" instead of "final." And I thought it was way too easy! I guess that shows me!  |

| No matter what I say,SHANNMO slams me. I received a private message from her, she is the most obnoxious person that I have ever heard from. She should be removed from Briangle!!! Don't say anything to offend her or you will receive an evil email.  |
