I believe that’s slang for “crazy drunk”.

It's also a (terrible) genre of music. Either way, when slang becomes international, shouldn't it be considered a word? It's in the Oxford English dictionary.

Tbf it's not like words just appear in the dictionary without any sort of explanation or origin either.

I had thought I was correct to include thunk. Horrified, I dropped my steel bowl of grapes. It hit the floor with a hollow thunk. I felt better.

Wooden bowls sound different.

Wouldn't steel bowls clunk? Or maybe clank. Hmmm. Anyway, I would think wooden bowls are more likely to thunk.

Wait a second, how did it do a hollow thunk if it had grapes in it? I suspect your scenario is entirely imaginary, good sir.

Doesn't the Scarecrow from Wizard of Oz sing that with a brain he'd "think of things I never thunk before"?

Even though it's not accepted, "lunk" is not entirely archaic.

Happy to have gotten all but one, chunk. The ch sound does not come natural to me ( not a native speaker) so when I was missing something between c and d I didnt think of ch, which is a totally different sound.

Kind of suprised at how high gunk is though(89), relatively rare imo, atleast so much so that I had no idea how to spell it. (went kunk cunk gunk) so I must never have seen it written down. (And just came from another quiz, british spelling, and I found knowing how to spelling aeon easy, while apparently even brits are not too familiar with the word or spelling)

Also surprised at how enormously low shrunk is, a big drop, like half of the next one up.

Anyway, really liked this quiz! Time might have been a bit tight. If you miss one or more, you don't really have time to think about what they could be. I would give it atleast 15 seconds more, so you could think about one or two words

I think it's partially because people can go through each letter a-z to see if adding it works: aunk, bunk, cunk, etc.

Unfortunately that's two syllables, but it should be included in any sequels.

Yes, after looking it up, this word is great. Sadly, it's slang and not in the common vernacular yet. Maybe it'll be more well known one day.

It’s pronounced as though it contains ‘unk,’ which is pretty much the criteria for rhyming.

No, "chipmunk" isn't decomposable. It's borrowed from Ojibwe "ajidamoog" ("squirrels, chipmunks", literally "head-first-descenders").

Frunk - front trunk - seen this one published in newspapers, etc.

(not suggesting these for the quiz - I just kept thinking of these)

Crunk - like in Kesha's song TikTok

Runk - dining hall at University of Virginia

I agree with some that lunk is definitely not archaic, even if it's an "unsightly" word. The "lunk alarm" in Planet Fitness is named aptly.

Agreed, I don't think lunk is archaic at all. The lunk alarm was my first thought when I saw the caveat, but I've also heard the word used in popular media and in real life within the past few years.

In North America, I don’t think anyone would ever use lunk unless as a prefix for -head. Lunk is common-ish according to OED, but quite uncommon elsewhere. It’s only at 0.000001% use on Google nGrams, for instance. Most of these other words are used about 10-100 times more.
