Question 1 of 10

1. Here's how it works. I give you three clues. The first word begins with an E, the second word drops the E, and the final word drops the first letter of the second word. Type JUST the longest word, starting with E. For instance, if I give the clue "Beverage - Ice skating arena - Pen fluid", the answers would be "Drink - Rink - Ink", so you would type in JUST "Drink" as the answer.

Ready? Good!
