That's stupid. Even a child should know the correct answer is "sith".

I had to think for a minute as to what other word it could be. It reminded me of a jumble I saw with "STXBETU" as a clue.

So was it supposed to be "This" or "Hits".  Or maybe "Sith"? The teacher could be a Star Wars fan. edit: DOH I was beaten by a German ninja!

LOL. Reminds me of the South Park episode where Stan's father Randy is on a special live broadcast of Wheel of Fortune. For the final puzzle, the phrase was "People that annoy you". After choosing consonants and vowels, the puzzle looked like this... N_GGERS The solution was *suppose* to spell out word "NAGGERS". He hesitated with much apprehension until the last second then attempted to solve the puzzle. He was wrong, total awkward silence as everyone's jaw dropped.

I'm surprised; using the standard E,S,T, R, N it gives
Stren_ _ts
But knowing the answer always makes it obvious.
What I'm surprised with is how badly I did with something other than "#%&*$#". I really was puzzled for a bit.
Good people sleep peaceably in their beds at night only because rough men stand ready to do violence on their behalf.
Someday your life will flash in front of your eyes. Make sure it is worth watching.

It took me about 20 secs. to figure it out, being that my interests include: Vodka shots Working out Load bearing walls ++++++++++ Now for the no BS honest answer... I simply searched "long single vowel words" and found... http://srufaculty.sru.edu/david.dailey/words/onevowel.htmYup, I cheated and hang my head in shame (or in Zamzow's Hangman's noose).

We've been helping my lad prepare for his English exams. One of the questions involved a Public Health Inspector. He spelled Public without an L. I laughed a little bit. ETA don't know why the video won't show.

I saw the thread title and thought this was going to be about "kindergarten" vs "kindergarden." The Jedi Master

Parents evenings were a cause of much amusement, looking at one's offspring's efforts, sat on tiny chairs in the primary school classroom.
Daughter no.1 wrote when she was in reception class:
'Daddy rides a bue mok bik and does the shopping.
I like to play with my poos'
Translates:
blue motor bike and play with my ponies.
Daughter no.2's head teacher came up to me at a Parent's Committee meeting, and told me that Jenny, then 4, had whispered in her ear;
'my daddy says 'bollocks' a lot but let us keep that between our selves' She was obviously revelling in my discomfiture, bur couldn't keep a straight face
Unfortunately, this extremely sexy lady did nor mete out any punishment though 'I had been a very naughty boy'.
