Compound Link
Two words sit either side of a gap. Find the one word that ends the first and starts the second, like sun-FLOWER-pot. Daily and practice.
How to play
- Two words are shown with a blank between them, for example butter ___ trap.
- Pick the word that fits in the blank so that both the left pair and the right pair make a compound word.
- In the example, FLY makes butterfly and flytrap.
- Wrong picks are greyed out and counted as mistakes. Your time is your score.
Tips and strategy
- Try the link word on the left first, then on the right. A wrong option usually fails one side.
- Compound words can be written as one word or two. Think of anything you have heard together.
- Read the answer note after each question. It shows both words in full so you learn the pair.
- Do the daily each morning to build up a streak.
