Mouseketeer Posted January 13, 2018 Share Posted January 13, 2018 (edited) Oh what a ‘tit’ I am...I didn’t even think about using the same letter twice...is that allowed sat, pat, sit, pit, tip, tap, pin, nip, sip, sap, pan, nap, sin, tin, nit, tan (16) Pains, pain, paints, paint, saint, span, pans, pint, apt, ant, pant, pants, satin, stain, tans, naps, taps, snap, snip, nips, sain, spit, spat, pits, pats (if verbs count ) Edited January 13, 2018 by Mouseketeer Wrong word Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wildflowers Posted January 13, 2018 Share Posted January 13, 2018 If so, then you could and 'pip' and 'tit' and get 18 CVCs. Oh, 'nan' could be added too, so 19. 'Sain' is a CVC, if 'ai' is considered a vocal (a sound, not a letter), but the rest are CCVC etc. 'Ants' is missing, and if the same letter could be used twice, then also 'saints' and 'paints'. (There is some form filling avoidance going on here, for the EYNFF... The County Council has sent me a reminder!) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mouseketeer Posted January 13, 2018 Share Posted January 13, 2018 (edited) Also pain could be cvc.... And I should be a doing a vat return :-( should also look at funding portal, glanced a couple of days ago, portal telling me a few 30hrs are in grace period, the parents showing me end dates in Jan, just know inputting is going to be a hassle so head in sand and back to word searching lol Edited January 13, 2018 by Mouseketeer 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
