Hi all,
As it’s quiet (and picking up on an idea originally proposed by @LRxword to whom credit is given) the challenge is to create a list of
“one-word, single-letter removal indicators” for every letter of the alphabet. Some suggestions below - can you fill in the blanks or improve on/give alternatives to those listed?
A - avoid
B - bless, bout
C - cleft
D - nod
E -
F -
G - gout
H - homeless
I - selflessly, non-current
J - jousted, deejay -> DJ(?)
K - OK
L - lout
M -
N - taken off (two words, but I like it)
O - loveless
P - disquiet
Q -
R - runaway, goner, riverless
S -
T - not, toff, taxed
U -
V -
W -
X - bygone
Y - lefty
Z - sleepless (?), nosy (homophone)
