LEAST favourite word

Post by Mike »

Hi

We are writing again and I was going crazy until I realised that LEAST is now my most favourite word. Why is this? and can anyone else suggest a five-letter word, non-plural, that could challenge LEAST for its poularity.

Regards

Hi yoyo

There is a specific reason for liking LEAST the most.

Think about the 21 question types and which type LEAST would fit into to make it the best word that we have found for that type, so far.

Hi

LEAST

Move L leaves EAST
Move E leaves LAST
Move A leaves LEST
Move S leaves LEAT
Move T leaves LEAS

This is the only five-letter word that we have found, non-plural, where you can take any letter out and leave a word behind.
