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.

The letter highlighted must be used. E

Usually it is possible to find a 9 letter word.

These are the letters for this challenge.

B L R

A E W

T E A

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

Example:

My sister says that a cup of tea without a biscuit is too wet.

cup of tea photo: tea for Peggy cup-of-tea.jpg

Mi hermana dice que una taza de té sin una galleta es demasiado mojado.

After the first 10 answers a nine letter word ends the challenge and the poster get 20 points.

This was the previous challenge.
