Find a two-syllable word whose letters can rearrange to make a one-syllable word.
4th grade? Seriously? I'm usually pretty good at this kind of thing but this was tough.
The only thing I've come up with is SADDER = DREADS.
That's a good one, Rockhead!
Another good one!
I was just browsing djjd's unnecessary knowledge thread and came across:
Desserts = stressed
eat DATES and you will be SATED
get MATED and you will be TAMED
in TONED, de NOTED
but i've got to get out of the past tense. that's cheating...
but I can't relate STEER to RESET, short of a tawdry reference to castration...
bleats, ablest
but I suppose ablest might be 3 syllables, depending on accent -- like "fork" has two parts in The Foreigner...
how about, she who is DONEST is she who is most STONED?
fuck, dude, I'm done.
no, shit, man, i'm doner. kabob?
sounds good. whoa, i'm donest.
4th grade, you said?
