Don Wood Posted January 10, 2007 Author Share Posted January 10, 2007 Ginny, you are close with your last 4. All five words have to have the same letters, just in different order. A friend of mine who loves anagrams pointed out that there are actually six words in the set I was thinking of, and gave me a new group of 5 as well. I'll let you know the answers later, when you have all had a chance to work on it. Don Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't think of five, but when I wrote "this" I realized it also sh*t! haah! Have a good one all! Jen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Don Wood Posted January 10, 2007 Author Share Posted January 10, 2007 Teresag, you got it! Those are the six. Now there is another group of 5 4-letter words that are anagrams of each other. Don Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
