Okay puzzler time. This is a quick one. Here we go.
A friend of mine who works at a bank was doing her accounting duties, and she was noticing that there was a balloon payment coming up and she said, "Well, that's interesting. Balloon. b.a.l.l.o.o.n. There are two sets of double letters in that word. Hmm."
And so she thought to herself, is there a word in the English language that has three sets of double letters in a row? And I was thinking on this one, I came across a word that has two H's in it, back to back.
So the puzzler has two parts. What word has three sets of double letters in it? And what word has two H's?
Now, there may be 2500 answers to this one, I know. Just have fun with it.
Good luck.
Answer time.
What word has three sets of double letters? And what word has two H's back to back?
There might be a bunch of answers to this one.
The first one is the word 'bookkeeper'! b.o.o.k.k.e.e.p.e.r!
Love that word. There may be others out there, but this one is the one we were looking for.
And for the second word, the answer is, 'withhold'. Two H's in that word.
And I'm sure there are many more out there, especially if people use Google. But these two were the ones we were looking for.
