What word has 5 letters but is pronounced like only one letter?
Common Wrong Answers
“Quilt”
While 'quilt' is a 5-letter word, it is pronounced with multiple sounds, unlike 'queue' which is pronounced like the letter 'Q'.
“Queen”
Although 'queen' is also a 5-letter word, it is pronounced with multiple syllables, making it not fit the riddle's criteria of being pronounced like only one letter.
“Quantity”
The word 'quantity' is much longer than 5 letters and does not match the riddle's requirement of being pronounced like a single letter.
