It was easy to get a couple words, but it was hard to come up with all of them. I see the answer didn't include them all either.
I never saw that one coming! That was a GREAT teaser!
hapyhac, mepapa, if you take away a specific 2 letters from any of those words you have E-I-G-H-T left (i.e. Freight-Fr=eight).
Okay................ (cricket chirp)
Too easy.
That was way too easy, but by the title most people would have guessed eighths.
Nice!
(It a "heavy" word, therefore eights, sleight, and other words wouldn't apply )

It really gets on my nerves when somebody puts "This is in the trick category" as their hint. I know this is in the trick category, and that happens all the time. Gah.
Easy teaser so thanks for posting.
i got all the words except weighty
