Nine letter word Challenge - New Version - 4

Question

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

This is a new version – there are 10 given letters.

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

Usually it is possible to find a 9 letter word – a 10 letter word gets 20 points immediately.

These are the letters for this challenge.

F Y R

U I T

G E A L The highlighted letter must be used - I

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

Example:

She should be entitled to the fruit of her labour.

Ella debería tener derecho a los frutos de su trabajo.

After the first 10 answers my nine letter word ends the challenge and the poster gets 20 points eventually.

This was the previous challenge
