Good one, I was stumped on this one.
i've never heard "fille" before. that was hard!
Good one, you stumped me.
good one. at first i couldn't understand the answer when i read it, and then I realized i was reading the hint. stupid me.
Excellent teaser! I think I must have always gotten "fille" confused with the slang "filly" (which is also just slightly less politically correct, lol!). Learn something new, eh?
Brilliant! Stumped me totally
Good one! It really stumped me but it really made sense when I read the answer. Two thumbs up!!!
speedydog, fille is the french word for girl.
You stumped me! Good one!
Overall good teaser. Hint made it less of a challenge. ("Hidded Within" made me automatically look for words inside of words. The opposites showed up easily). I did learn some new terms though!
niiiiiiiice!!! :-)
Very well done and congratulations on a great teser.
Stumped me too, though I disagree with "doll" being a feminine word.
