	What the heck is that one U word? Don't make me google.

	Total wild guess on UMIAK. Had no idea.

	samivel:	Feb 12th, 2011 at 05:16 GMT	10 points
	This is a very good quiz, but perhaps you could replace Idaho, as it's currently the only one that's a proper noun, with another five-letter I-word?

	I usually disapprove of asking for thumbs up, but I'm curious: Thumb up this comment if you got stuck on umiak and went crazy typing in random letter combos until you got it.

	i'm so playing that 'u-word' next time i play scrabble. hooray for eskimo words. in fact a lot of these are high scorers in scrabble - all sorts of z, x & js floating around.

	@WredAguyW: I voted up your comment, although technically I didn't go crazy typing in random combinations. I went methodical, typing in systematic letter permutations until I got it. But I'm with you in principle.

	Since there's lots of umiak talk: I know the word only from crossword puzzles.

	TL333s:	Feb 12th, 2011 at 14:43 GMT	-2 points
	Next time don't tell us what letters these start with and they'll actually be hard.

	Catherine_F:	Feb 12th, 2011 at 15:41 GMT	9 points
	For Scrabble players, it looks like umiak can be spelt several ways: umiac, umiaq, oomiac and oomiak - bear those in mind next time you think you have too many vowels!

	Pogues:	Feb 12th, 2011 at 16:33 GMT	4 points
	Extol was my stumbling block. You'd think with 90 seconds left and knowing the first letter, just my random guessing would have gotten the stupid thing!! As for umiak...I don't know if I had heard the word before or just stumbled in the answer with my first try, but I got it toot quick.

	umiak? cmooon

	EmYanks2001:	Feb 12th, 2011 at 21:55 GMT	-4 points
	umiak, usury, ilium?? i got all the ones i actually heard of though... as for umiak i didnt go crazy till i got it, cuz well i never got it lol

	jefe_:	Feb 13th, 2011 at 02:38 GMT	4 points
	Since no one's said it yet, an umiak is a large, open Inuit boat made of skins stretched over a wooden frame that is propelled by paddles. Usury is an exorbitant or unlawful rate of interest, or the act of lending money at such a rate. The ilium is the upper and widest of the three bones making up the hipbone (not to be confused with the ileum, the part of the small intestine between the jejunum and the cecum).

	I got umiak not by going crazy and typiong random combinations, but by assuming it started with 'u' (!) and working through all possible combinations of the remaining letters until I got it.

	Let's not put capitalized proper nouns into "word" lists, please. Like Idaho. I would have preferred "oboes" to "obese".

	Isn't Ilium another name for Troy, like in the Iliad? Or is that Illium?

	got 14/15 in 55 seconds. took me 1:45 to get umiak. other than that one waaay too much time...

	crdimitri:	Jan 29th, 2012 at 16:08 GMT	1 point
	Good quiz. I do agree that Idaho is out of place.
