Making Words

1. MISSING VOWELS

Words with missing vowels are written below.  Your goal is to add vowels to make as many words with those letters as possible.  You also want to attempt to create the longest word. You may not rearrange or add consonants or add vowels before, between, or after consonants.
Examples:

  • strt (could be start, street, etc., but the longest word is eight letters, saturate)

  • prdc (could be produce, etc., but the longest word is eight letters, periodic)

  • prn (could be apron, preen, etc., but the longest word is eight letters, paranoia)

How about trying these?
