That did not take me too long to0 find the 3 letter word. It was a fun teaser and thank you for posting it.
A bit too easy: 'Vi---or' gave it away( not much else it could be, but sit ) maybe one for the kids, thanks firefox99!
I agree with both of the above comments. It is always nice to see one that is geared towards the whole family once in awhile. Good job Firefox!
Fun and easy teaser. The first word gave it away immediately.
Easy teasy, quick and fun. I did have to go all the way down to Positive for it to click with me. Good teaser.
mrbill51, the first item could not possibly have given this puzzle away immediately, since there are at least four other 3-letter words, HAT, MAT, SAT, and RAT, which can be prefixed to that final "E" to form the legitimate English words, respectively, HATE MATE, SATE, and RATE. Of course, none of those 3-letter words work for the other items.
Sorry Lukasiwcz, but it could have given it away for him. Maybe not for everybody, but for him it did. It popped in his mind and it worked, so he did not have to search any further. I have had that happen to me on occasion where a word popped in my head and worked, but so would a lot of others.
