What are the next three letters in this combination? OTTFFSS
This super hard question asks you to determine the relationship between the letters. They seem random: a vowel, two consonants from the tail of the alphabet, two from the front, then two more. What could they mean? What’s the pattern? In this case, think of common strings of words to get you closer. But it still seems almost impossible to hit on the solution.
{Spoiler Answer} ENT is correct
The letters are the first letters in One, Two, Three, Four, Five Six, Seven
The missing Letters are Eight, Nine, Ten

I speak without a mouth and hear without ears. I have no body, but I come alive with wind.
What am I?

joybelle, I've been writing the above in every Autograph Book I've signed since I was just knee high to a grasshopper! Cheering My dad used to tease me with the song ... Have you ever seen a dream walking? Well, I have! This was in the car on the very odd occasion he'd drive me to school when I was just a nipper, when I was still half asleep. My mum used to tease me with the poem ... There was a little girl Who had a little curl Right in the middle of her forehead And when she was good She was very very good But when she was bad She was horrid Mum used to say that to me as she was brushing my hair on the verandah in the sunshine when all my siblings had gone to school, naturally as she curled one of my ringlets right in the middle of my forehead! Sunny Day

I'm SO sorry but I have to confess ... I googled the first line as I was ??? and then managed (I think) to work out the rest.
Peek-a-boo
Assuming I'm correct, none for me, thanks! I hate one, am allergic to another, but I'll have the 3rd in a Wikinger brötchen, thanks!
Aha!

SynthpopAddict, well, that wasn't actually the answer I was thinking of, either, although another good one! Aha! But you could answer Yes to your question if your first word was actually the person's name! Who knows what country may have that as a name? I'm thinking of the 'Who's on First' skit! Cheering Another question...?
