Double L Hell

At the tournament today a very experienced A Grade player challenged one of the words in the quiz today.

That surprised me a little because although it was an unusual word it was very high probability letters. The only thing that made it slightly lower probability was having two L's. That was the inspiration for the following quiz of high prob 8 letter words with a double L.

AEEILLNT

AEEILLRT

AEILLRTU

AEILLNOR

EILLORTT

AILLORTT (This one has two anagrams)

AEELLRRT

EILLNOTU

AELLNOOT

IILLNOOR

As you may have guessed from the introduction this is really a quiz for A Grade players. There may be a word or two that other graded player may find, but unless you are really keen you should move on to the 2nd stage of the quiz where I will give you the meanings of the words you are trying to find. That may help you a little bit, but don’t be surprised if it is still very difficult. Best of luck.

AEEILLNT is an advance defensive formation in front of the main fortress defences

AEEILLRT is a drug developed from apricot pits used in the treatment of cancer

AEILLRTU is a woman’s tailored suit

AEILLNOR in heraldic designs is an eagle displayed without feet or beak

EILLORTT are small pasta parcels stuffed with meat or vegetables

AILLORTT pertains to a region of the shore, but also

AILLORTT is an unleavened cake of maize flour

AEELLRRT is a spherical magnet

EILLNOTU is a yellow dye obtained from a plant called dyer’s broom

AELLNOOT is a drug used to treat hypertension

IILLNOOR is a part of a fortification which shields the gun

Did the meanings help you? I am hoping it did in some cases, but there is a good chance that you have learned some new words. Excellent, there is nothing wrong with that!

So finally we come to the answers:

TENAILLE

LAETRILE

TAILLEUR

ALLERION

TORTELLI

LITTORAL and TORTILLA

TERRELLA

LUTEOLIN

ATENOLOL

ORILLION

Happy Scrabbling
