Missing One Letter III Trivia Quiz

This is the third quiz in my series of "Missing One Letter" quizzes. One letter will be missing from each word, but the letter will appear in the word several times. For example, if you saw "B_N_N_", you would type in "banana".

Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. _ N _ T _ A T _ V E (Remember that all blanks are the same letter.)

Answer: initiative

The missing letter is I, resulting in the word "initiative". Initiative is the ability or willingness to do some task before others do it.

2. W A _ _ L E _

Answer: waddled

The missing letter is D, resulting in the word "waddled". Waddling is common with some types of birds that don't move quickly on land, including ducks and penguins. However, birds that waddle have other ways of moving much more quickly (flying for ducks, swimming for penguins).

3. A _ _ I _ U D E

Answer: attitude

The missing letter is T, resulting in the word "attitude". People can have a good attitude or a bad attitude, depending on their mood. Remember to always have a good attitude!

4. _ O _ _ Y X

Answer: coccyx

The missing letter is C, resulting in the word "coccyx". The coccyx is the tailbone, and "coccyx" is one of the few words ending in "yx" (the most common one being "onyx").

5. _ O F T N E _ _

Answer: softness

The missing letter is S, resulting in the word "softness". Softness can refer to how soft something feels (like a stuffed animal), minerals that rank low on the Mohs hardness scale (like talc), or quietness (sometimes in music).

6. S _ A _ U _ E

Answer: statute

The missing letter is T, resulting in the word "statute". A statute is a law. This is not to be confused with a statue (one letter different), which is a type of sculpture.

7. _ A _ _ A L

Answer: mammal

The missing letter is M, resulting in the word "mammal". A mammal is a type of animal that is warm-blooded and gives birth to live young. Mammals include cats, dogs, mice, rabbits, elephants, bears, and even humans, in addition to many other animals.

8. _ I _ _ L I N _

Answer: giggling

The missing letter is G, resulting in the word "giggling". Many people giggle when they think something is funny.

9. _ O _ A G O _

Answer: nonagon

The missing letter is N, resulting in the word "nonagon". A nonagon is a polygon with 9 sides.

10. A _ _ E _ _

Answer: assess

The missing letter is S, resulting in the word "assess". To assess means to estimate the importance, value, or quality of something.
