Yes, I stand corrected as TWO changes. My apologies.

That's not even a diphthong,.. that's a whole new syllable. Playing with you feels like another example of society's race down the steep hill of declining standards. You could have played 'part'...

I'll say a four letter word then you'll change it by one letter or add one/take away one for example

Food
Foot
Loot
Looter
Tooter
what is "er"? Another whole syllable. SO, you were saying?

Don't even bring this BAD example up again.
The rule is stated clearly.
That one of the examples that follow doesn't fit the rule is irrelevant.
Indeed, read down just a few more posts and you will see that the OP's error (or perhaps negative example?) is already addressed on the first page.

That's 2 letters there Euclid

Are you and Tisha seriously going out? like in real life
Note that Hank set up this thread and THEN he is the one to
1) add two letters and
2) add another syllable.

So to what was the FIX? I have now read that first page of this thread at least 3 times in the past month.

As I said before, I prefer not to turn this into a long, legal-like debate on a rule ("one letter") that the originator himself (Hank) did not follow.

pert, followed by

expert was the last word posted. If you do not like that, then go with

part

I will let Vot decide on the direction here. To me, the exact rule is not that important, since there is so much ambiguity about things since the inception of this thread. Just have FUN here.
