What do these words have in common?
Tang, Aunt, Toga and Late
my aunt tilly.
she sat around drinking tang in her toga late at night.
I am note sure I understand your answer- are you saying you can make a sentence out of the words?
nooooo....
you asked what they had in common, and I told you.
They all have a T and an A in them.

I'm not going to say a thing.....
wait...tang spelled backwards is gnat....and if you take the u out and aunt you have an ant.
Toga spells goat, which ants and gnats pester, and late spells tale, which can also be spelled tail.
so, a goat will use his tail to swat ants and gnats.
I don't know why some people think these things are so hard.
