In this teaser, your job is to discover the missing word that links the two given words. The dashes indicate the number of letters in the missing word. Good luck!
Beginning with the word “in,” add one letter from the given pool to create a new word until you get a seven-letter word meaning “being in a state of suppressed agitation, worry, or resentment.”
In all of the words listed, if you take the first letter, place it at the end of the word, and then spell the word backwards, it will be the same word.
In English, “re” is a prefix usually meaning “again”, such as in “rebuild” (build again). However, there are many words starting with “re” which have a totally different meaning without the “re”.
You will be given two definitions, one for a word starting with “re”, and one for the remaining word without the “re” (either definition could be given first).
1. newspaper employee / hotel employee 2. one who belongs / bring past event to mind 3. unit of money / not long ago 4. money for the poor / kingdoms 5. income / event location 6. couple / fix 7. arrived at / felt long-term pain 8. at ease / cause sharp pain
