Jumpin' Jiminy

I've been busy fighting off a computer virus recently. It causes one letter in each word to jump out of position! For example, when I typed ALBUM, the U jumped backward and AULBM appeared.

Below are some of the lists that were affected. The lists were SO affected that if you keep track of the jumping letters (in order) they will spell out another word that was also affected by the virus.


-1.
DEACLEB
CUROSE
ARGAGE
CARIONA
GOTURME
LORACE
ENOVIC

-2.
FINER
HAPORON
GRUNED
RAITUL
CRELEY
UNIPAD
ISLEMAD

-3.
OVECT
PURELDE
RONUTIE
AVATOIR
IMISLE
SIKEN
SECHEM

1. debacle (b)
course (o)
garage (g)
ocarina (o)
gourmet (t)
oracle (l)
novice (e)

Bonus word: bootleg
Very cute puzzle, Sue. I hope your virus gets better.

2. infer (f)
harpoon (r)
runged (g)
ritual (a)
celery (r)
unpaid (i)
mislead (m)

Except I can't get the bonus word so I suspect one or more might be wrong.

3. covet (c)
prelude (u)
routine (n)
aviator (i)
simile (s)
skien (i)
scheme (e)

cuisine (n)

2 - infer (f)
harpoon (r)
gerund (e)
ritual (a)
celery (r)
unpaid (i)
mislead (m)

bonus word = firearm

Excellent solves and assists!



Thanks, Sherlock. That was a nasty one!
