In case some of you-all want to try. I did poorly, as expected. Etymologic!

I did lousy on the first attempt, and a little better on a second game. It seemed more like etymology trivia with an emphasis on the quirky.

It's not the same every time, but I got 7/10 both times I've tried so far. AHD, however, disagrees with them on "hush puppy".

8/10 and humbling.
Whereas I felt chuffed with my 8/10, and discovering that I've matched your score has merely increased the cranial expansion my score caused.

It's fun, but variable - anything from 10 to 7 for me over 5 tries.
But er, spelling errors?!?!
What did palooka originally mean? * An inferior or average boxer * A Peasant or freeholder * A sense of numbness * A lamenation or complaint
