Since we usually allow you the option of using the second word in a spell-it-out challenge, I say it's fine to disregard a 'The', 'A', 'An', etc.

As to the Bridge and Bridger I'm thinking it's not close enough.


message 18: by Lisarenee (new)

Lisarenee | 7659 comments FYI, if you find a different spelling of the same word, such as theater and theatre that is totally acceptable too.

Lisarenee | 7659 comments Ezinwanyi~For you, Agron wrote: "Man, this is harder than it looks!"

That's why I gave all those examples plus,the link to the listopia. Another hint: Use the add book/author located above the comment box to locate books with the same titles by different authors. Just type in the title whose twin you're looking for. Some are more common than others.
