Langua.ology

Sixteen words, four hidden groups. Every group shares a language feature: a prefix, a Latin or Greek root, a word's origin, a literary device, a grammar rule.

• Select four words and press Submit.
• You can make four mistakes.
• Category names stay hidden until you find the group.
• Three right and one wrong? You'll be told you're one away.
• Stuck? Hint marks one word from each group you haven't found.
• Each group you find explains the feature, so every puzzle teaches something.

Difficulty

Watch for red herrings. A word can look like it fits a group and belong somewhere else entirely.
