Nine letter word Challenge - 17

Nine letter word Challenge - 17

votes

Nine letter word games are very popular in the English speaking world.

The idea is to make words of 3 or more of the given letters.

Usually it is possible to find a 9 letter word.

These are the letters for this challenge.

D R E

H E T

A F E

The letter highlighted must be used. E

Find an English or Spanish word and then write a sentence in English and Spanish.

Example:

There are too many dictators in the world.

Hay demasiados dictadores en el mundo.

chaplin dictator photo: dictator_chaplin.jpg dictator_chaplin.jpg

For my nine letter word the poster will get 20 points eventually.

This was the previous challenge.

I am trying to read a book in Spanish. I am still not sure of how to write out a conversation. Mijo is short for my son which is used in the U.S. a lot. - 0083f5dc, Sep 25, 2013
