ALESHA: In the second one, you need to build on each word (same letters) as you did in #1;-)
BRITTANY: A good solution:-)
JENNIFER: Close, but no proper nouns and no foreign words;-)
SARAH:Sorry--ur is not a word;-)
ROBERT: Another good solution:-)
MARY ANN: An another good solution:-)
KIRSTEN:Almost, but no proper nouns allowed;-)

ALESHA: Better, but note that 'druse' is a proper noun;-)
SARAH: That's better:-)
LISA: Another good solution:-)
VIVIEN: #1--either ate or tat (fat doesn't work); #s 2 and 3: start with one letter, then build to two, etc.,
a/at/tar/tart/treat
a/am/mas/slam/flams/flames
u/us/use/nudes/sunder/undress
AMANDA: The first two are good, but the other has a problem. You go from a three-letter word "use" to a five-letter one "nudes". You need an intermediate word in there.
(a/at/art/tart/treat)
(a/as/sal/sale/males/flames)
(u/us/use/ruse/nurse/nursed/undress)
yes my word there was going to be "used"
ALESHA: that's better!
AMANDA: thank you:-)
1. a, at, eat, rate, treat
2. a, as, las, lase, fleas, flames
3. u, un, run, runs, nurse, nurses
ANDREA: good!
