These look like tricky words. We'll see how many I get. :)

Exhibition

Jan, I'm guessing that "Fortify" is OK for "Fortified", since it doesn't say the word must be exact. And "Spectacles" would work for "Spectacle", though the meaning is different? I wanted to make sure that's right.

Welcome to the fun Shelly!

Teri - I will take variations of the word unless its states "no variations". So fortify works fine.

And I usually except plurals of the words but since the "s" does completely change the meaning of spectacle I would say to keep looking. It's still really early in the challenge so I'm sure you will find it elsewhere.

That's fine. I wanted to check before I got too far along. Thanks for clarifying it for me.

Great Deb! Good luck!

Jan, I’m sorry I messed up and erased my whole challenge 😢
Is there anyway I can start over?

That's a bummer Shelly! Of course you can! And date it however works best for you - backdating or starting now. You can repost in Message 19 or make a new post altogether. If you repost, I will get you re-linked up.
