It's been a while since I've played this, but talking about these games with a student yesterday got me feeling nostalgic for it.

I did *not* know that word!The playback isn't working for me - I can't confirm the vowel sequence there.
In the spectrogram, the shift is pretty subtle. For that last guess, I was sure it was a consonant I was missing - some little shift at the end of that /s/. But I can see how the vowel is very /i/-like.
What a great challenge for my first day back after a long break!

π©π©π©π©π©I spent a loooong time after that first guess, trying to figure out what actual word could fit.
First guess was that /ΙΉ/ was second in a cluster.

https://nascl.rc.nau.edu/gramle/Not paying attention. I guessed a voiceless plosive at the start twice, before catching that there wasn't nearly enough aspiration. Not for English.
But I got there eventually. π€

https://nascl.rc.nau.edu/gramle/Well, I definitely would have transcribed that middle vowel differently (with a schwa at the end of it: [iΙ]). But I'm content with their transcription.
I was sure that first vowel just had a big transition into the following consonant - didn't occur to me for 3 guesses that it might be a diphthong!

https://nascl.rc.nau.edu/gramle/Well, my first guess had a tap /ΙΎ/ in the middle spot. I'd say that was right, listening to the actual pronunciation.
That first vowel, though! It sure looks like it should be closer to the corner of the vowel chart than the second one. So I first guessed /i/, then /Ιͺ/. But listening, I agree with /e/. Good to know!

https://nascl.rc.nau.edu/gramle/I'm so pleased that I spotted that tiny schwa out front.
Less pleased that I thought, in my first guess, that it's followed by a nasal rather than a voiced plosive.

https://nascl.rc.nau.edu/gramle/That first vowel is [aΚ], *not* [oΚ]! Not just because that's what I expect from "showery", but because that's what I hear in the recording!
Aside from that, this is an interesting challenge, with 3 syllables in a sonorant-heavy sequence.

And I really would have expected a bit more separation between F1 and F2 for the [Γ¦]. Live and learn!
