I thought I was on to something with BIDET when that B turned over. Still quite happy with a par on this word.
MOUSE’s average of 4.0 remains unchanged.

TENTH → One and only one T; the vowels may kill me on this one
LEAST → Two placed; looks like a trap
REMIT → Still feeling trappy; can only guess one vowel at a time

BEGET

Really thought I was going down until that G came up on the fifth guess.

In principle I have no objection to almost archaic words, but I’m not fond of them either. I did get BELIE several months ago, but like BEGET, the only place where these words are seen are Shakespeare and the King James Bible.
