	Strictly speaking, SCUBA isn't a word, it's an acronym.

	On that note, exhibit B: Email.

	Groo: I've read that "email" has been added to our English language now, according to Webster's Dictionary

	BOOOOOOO for email. It's not an acronym, per se; but it's a HYPHENATED word, even though most of us now write it without the hyphen, esp. in a text/email. Come on, Sporcle admin--I thought these things are what you tried to weed out BEFORE publishing a game.

	What were originally acronyms/abbreviations/hyphenated etc. often get absorbed into the language as 'normal' words. Nothing wrong with either 'scuba' or 'email' - that's just the way language evolves.

	@hawksdd - Chard is a vegetable. It's related to beet, but more like spinach.

	I'd say, strictly speaking, that your lives are pretty good if all you have to complain about is the content of a free online quiz.

	isn't platen a word?

	peru-super

	I thought you could have done a bit better with Oman and Cuba. Just having to add the W and S to the start of both countries was a bit easy.

	@daiz, it would help if you wrote in legible English. Also, I'm assuming that it did not give you credit for your [in]correct answers is because you did not look at the column titled "Extra letter" that tells you what the added letter is. Same goes for you, @Pablo57.

	The idea of this quiz is neat but the quiz itself is really frustrating. You need to find more options for each word. For example, Peru can become super and Nepal can become panels.

	@stacey_pauline, as explained earlier in the comments, you have to add the specific letter that is stated on the right side of the column to the country, not any letter you want. You had to add "G" to Peru, and "T" to Nepal, not R or L...

	@Gusgus: You add 'S' to Peru to get super and to Nepal to get panels... where did you get the random R and L from?

	I gotta second ted and alice - Platen is most definitely a word. I gave up on that one after it wasn't right.

	enzyme was cute.

	I was only until the end of the quiz I realised that the other letters could be jumbled up to create the new word...I wondered why it wouldn't accept Chinag or Kenyad!!! 😄

	more proof that i suck at things

	I can't lie, I did try "Kanyed" for that special moment when you're being honored only to have someone totally interrupt you to say that someone else was more deserving.
