	Good job! Another good quiz Sproutcm :)

	Well I just learned I've been pronouncing 'lured' wrong this whole time

	Don't know why I bothered, I'm no good at these types of quizzes

	Today, I learned a new word. I'm such a linguistic nerd. My tongue, it slurred When I said "urd" 'Cause no letters are beyond its third.

	@sproutcm: I think we need words ... http://www.sporcle.com/games/Flick/words-that-rhyme-with-word

	People who think "lured", "cured", and "toured" should be added should check the source, which doesn't list pronunciations for those words that rhyme with "word". People who think "absurd, inferred, deferred, occurred" should be added should read the title, which has "one-syllable" in nice large bold letters.

	Thank you for pointing that out, Tahnan. I read and re-read the quiz notes wondering why those words would be overlooked but never scrolled all the way up to see the quiz page title assuming it was the same as the game name I had seen. It'd be nice if they werent written out significantly different.

	I agree with lured and cured...toured however I can't picture those two sounding alike unless word sounds like ward? (and I say tour like tore).

	Lured and cured? Really, somebody has got to have weird pronunciation if they think those rhyme with word.

	Chris968:	Nov 7th, 2011 at 01:00 GMT	1 point
	Not sure how erred and word rhyme... maybe it's my NYC accent, because I can see how lured and cured rhyme with word.

	@flick, sounds like you do!

	vikZ:	Nov 8th, 2011 at 07:56 GMT	3 points
	@Montylaw woah woah don't put words in my mouth. I never said 'lured' should be added. I looked it up after taking the quiz and found out I've been saying it wrong the whole time

	imclala:	Nov 8th, 2011 at 19:19 GMT	8 points
	I pronounce "erred," and have always heard it pronounced, liked "aired." Nothing like "word."

	MickeySVDP:	Nov 12th, 2011 at 22:07 GMT	3 points
	I've always pronounced "erred" as sounding like "aired". I also agree with Milgita-in my part of the world lured and cured don't sound anything like word.
