> [@notfrommensa](#): > > Dang, are there 50 different three plus syllable words ending in “-ate”. I think there has been only one repeat. I rejected “meditate” and “vacillate” before settling on “fascinate”…and neither of those would have gotten any matches either! “Castigate”–the one that’s getting matches–really is the best answer. Anyone who answers “Watergate” should get bonus points.
