The “break point” word game

In honour of nicnacs and in sympathy for that broken pelvis…

 

This is a spin on the usual word game; it involves taking the middle letter (the “break point”) of a word (which must be 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, 13, or 15 letters long) and using that as the first letter of the new word.

 

For instance…

 

for -> opera -> error -> ribboned -> olfactory -> camel … etc.

 

It might catch on. I hope it can provide some word options that are either impossible or rare for those final letter games!

 

 

 

catch
