Yes, it does work without the "-" in between, but only if you write it without a space: "houseelves," with a space: "house elves," does not work.
Also, I doubt "dungheap" is a compound word and it, as well, did not take "dung heap" with a space in between the words.
Anyway, great idea for a quiz, nonetheless. I listen to the audiobooks of Harry Potter way to often to be considered healthy and I always crack up at "Snape! In Dumbledore's office?! MERLIN'S PANTS!" |
