Each of the words in 1-13 have had a word removed from them. The definitions of the removed words are in a-m. Find the removed words and then place them in the blank spaces to recreate the original 13-letter words. The words will fill in the ‘-‘ without changing the order of the letters. Example : Fa-h-o-mo-g-- with a. transgressor = sinner, answer = Fashionmonger.
-1. --bi-e-mak--s -2. --c-a--r-hips -3. ele-t--cu-i-- -4. h--rsp--tti-- -5. i--gi-a-iv--y -6. -l--p--mou-ly -7. o-e--ogr--h-r -8. --n--m--ities -9. unco-f--t-b-- -10. s--iz-ph-en-- -11. te-d-rhe--t-- -12. u-d-r-r-dua-- -13. -uln--ab-li--
