No, and it was a good thought, but you need 2 more letters for "marionettes". What you thought you were doing was fine. I only count deliberate rule breaches...you know... like some OTHER people.... who call people "dummy" even after they already admitted being dense... ya know?

The spelling I used is common, like program/programme or colo(u)r. That was something I checked before posting.

Where'd you find that? I googled and all it came up with were a few username matches, and "Did you mean marionette?". I've never seen it another way, either, for whatever that's worth... :0)

Close but... T to O --> MARONITES to add T-> MONETARIST

Allright, it's too totally tantalizing S to E, MARIONETTE

ATTIREMENT

Too egotistical. Let's take the "I" out of it.

...the letters of ATTIREMENT, taken only once each, can be arranged to make RAIMENT. (They also make MEDITERRANEAN.)

Edit: no, they don't. No D.
