  • This quiz is intended to test your ability to think of common words fitting a certain pattern, but not to test knowledge of uncommon or obscure words. There is no absolute gauge of what is "common", so the Oxford English Mini Dictionary (a rather small dictionary) is used as the standard. The quiz includes all -tain words that are listed in OEMD and none that are not.
