Nine letter word Challenge - New Version – 7

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.

T O S

C O P

A E L I

The highlighted letter must be used - O

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

Example:

How much does it cost? --- darling.

¿Cuánto cuesta? ------ querido,

After the

first 10 answers

my nine letter word ends the challenge and the poster gets 20 points eventually.

This thread has no "official" corrector so please make sugeestions as you see fit. Thankyou.
