Lol, I tried 6 different ways of writing suboosterwhatsit without finding the right spelling. My brother had one in the trunk of his car when he was younger so I knew what it was called - out loud, sort of - but couldn't figure out how to write it :).
Subject is another synonym for underling according to the Oxford dictionary. I understand not wanting to have subject and subjective both be acceptable answers, but it does fit the quiz guidelines.
it would, the quizmaster should add a 'The' so it is "The transition from solid to gas", because the current sentence could imply 'to transition from solid to gas' or 'the transition from solid to gas', making sublime an answer to 2 questions
I had heard of subpoena, but never ever seen it written (or thought it would be like this) but seeing it is interesting! I remember poena, first I thought it was money, but it is penalty/fine/punishment. I think from now on whenever I hear the word on tv I ll remember this (the way it was written and etymology)
I have also never heard of it before. But it's no secret that some people like to insist that this is a weakness in the quiz rather than in our own education. And America has always been an easy target in this community.
