This is a great quiz, timed right, nice difficulty, but there is one mistake. These are not all the three vowel combinations that begin with the letter A. You forgot "Canada."

and "vagina"

You also don't have karate. So clearly this isn't ALL the words with this pattern. Just get rid of the ones you say are TOO HARD and add karate, Canada, and another word (maybe not vagina) to make it 26 so the rows are even. That bugs me.

No, no. There are 5 vowels (AEIOU), and so there are 5*5=25 patterns that have A as the first vowel that go CVCVCV. There are MANY words that fit some of these patterns, but there is only ONE word for each of the 25 unique possible patterns.
So, Canada could replace banana, but only one of those can be there. Karate could replace garage, but only one of those can be there.

@sproutcm: Don't worry, I understand exactly how this quiz is set up. What I don't understand is how you can continue to come up with so many wonderful ideas for quizzes. It is truly incredible. Please, keep up the great work!

Wow - a lot of users are refusing to use the TOO HARD option.

Please change it to "Kublai" rather than "Kubla" - the former is the correct spelling. Great quiz!

@randomhandle: I'm guessing that sproutcm was referring to the poem "Kubla Khan" by Samuel Taylor Coleridge.

I should have my score halved for knowing Blahnik's first name.
