What have the following words got in common?
LARCHES -- BLEAK -- NORMAL -- HURTLE
I'm not sure of the answer.
1) they all contain 4-letter words (ARCH, LEAK, NORM, HURT)
2) they all contain 2 vowels.
3) The 4-letter words in 1) are all anagrams (CHAR, LAKE, MORN, RUTH)
4) All 4 words are anagrams of names (CHARLES, BLAKE, MARLON, LUTHER) (This is the most "mensa like" one)
Any other suggestions?
