Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. Which ISN'T legal in Scrabble?

Answer: AC

Acronyms like AC (air conditioning) aren't legal in Scrabble. AR spells the letter R. An AL is an East Indian tree. An AI is a three-toed sloth.

2. Which ISN'T legal in Scrabble?

Answer: BU

A person's BA is his or her eternal soul, in Egyptian mythology. BI means a bisexual person. BO means a pal.

3. Using U.S. rules, are there any legal two-letter Scrabble words that begin with C?

Answer: No

Scrabble doesn't allow acronyms, but in the U.S., CA denotes California and CO denotes Colorado. A CD is a compact disc, and a CT (x-ray computed tomography) scan is a medical imaging procedure. I'm not sure, but I think CH might be legal if you are using British Scrabble rules.

4. Which IS legal in Scrabble?

Answer: DE

DE means "of." It's used in names such as Lady Catherine de Bourgh. Don't ask me why it's a legal Scrabble word in U.S. English--it's French, isn't it?

5. Which is NOT a legal word in Scrabble?

Answer: EB

ET is a colloquial past-tense form of "eat." EX means the letter X, and EF means the letter F.

6. What does the legal Scrabble word FA mean?

Answer: the 4th tone of the musical scale

Do, re, mi, fa, so, la, ti, do.

7. Under U.S. rules, besides GO, are there any other legal two-letter Scrabble words beginning with G?

Answer: Yes, GI is legal.

A gi is a uniform that is used in some martial arts. As I said, Scrabble doesn't allow acronyms. When someone "bets on the GGs" he or she places bets on horseraces. A GP is a doctor who is a general practitioner.

8. Which word IS legal in Scrabble?

Answer: HM

HM means "hmm." Other legal words with H include HA, HI, HE, HO, AH, OH, and UH. H is among my favorite letters in Scrabble, because if you place it on a triple-letter score, you can usually get 24 points from that tile alone.

9. What does the legal Scrabble word ID mean?

Answer: a part of the psyche

Other legal I words include AI, BI, HI, LI, and PI.

10. Which IS a legal Scrabble word?

Answer: JO

JO means girlfriend (or boyfriend, I'm told).

11. What does the legal Scrabble word KA mean?

Answer: the spiritual self of a human being

KA and BA are both ancient Egyptian words. KI, another legal word, means "a life-sustaining force" (like QI).

12. Which is NOT a legal Scrabble word?

Answer: LE

LA is the sixth note on the musical scale. A LI is a Chinese unit of distance. You've probably seen the interjection LO in fairytales: "Lo and behold!"

13. Which IS a legal Scrabble word?

Answer: MM

MM means "yes" (an interjection that expresses assent or satisfaction).

14. Which is NOT a legal Scrabble word?

Answer: NI

NU spells a Greek letter. NA means "no." NE means "born with the name of," the masculine form of NEE.

15. Which is NOT a legal Scrabble word?

Answer: OA

An OE is a whirlwind (off the Faeroe islands). OD means, according to the Scrabble dictionary, "a hypothetical force of natural power." OM is a mantra.

16. Which of these IS a legal Scrabble word?

Answer: PE

PE is a Hebrew letter.

17. Which IS a legal Scrabble word?

Answer: RE

RE is the second tone in the musical scale. Other legal 2-letter words with R include AR, ER, and of course OR.

18. Which is NOT a legal Scrabble word?

Answer: SS

SI means the same thing as TI (the seventh tone of the musical scale). Who knew? SH means "Hush!"

19. Which is NOT a legal Scrabble word?

Answer: TU

TI is the seventh tone of the musical scale. TA means "thanks."

20. Which IS a legal Scrabble word?

Answer: UT

UT is a musical term.

21. Are there any two-letter legal Scrabble words that include V?

Answer: No, none.

Nope, not a one. If you get a V, don't keep it until the end of the game. IVY is a good three-letter word with V in it. So is VIE.

22. Which IS a legal Scrabble word?

Answer: WO

WO means woe.

23. Which IS a legal Scrabble word?

Answer: XI

XI is a Greek letter. Other legal X words include XU, AX, EX, and OX.

24. Which is NOT a legal Scrabble word?

Answer: YU

YE means "you." YA means "yes." YO means "hello." The words AY and OY are also legal.

25. Which of these IS a legal Scrabble word?

Answer: ZA

ZA is a legal Scrabble word. It's short for pizza. By the way, even though BZ isn't legal, BIZ is (it's short for business). WIZ is a good one, too, as is FEZ.
