Nice one! I like that you must understand the words within the the context as well as choose the proper one. Double time learning!

OK, that's kind of fun, but what is the answer to this question?

The city said safely accommodating the 150,000 daily festival-goers requires limits on where people can __________.

A countryman
B tourniquet
C leaflet
D nitpicking
E subterfuge

Using sentances from current periodicals may not provide the best grammar. I saw another sentance that began with "I'm gonna".

eta: I got that question again and looked up the source. Then I looked up the word. I had never seen that word used as a verb.

id like to ban nitpicking in my house...unless it real live nit, of course.

antually with a crowd of that size in such close proximity perhaps nitpicking shoud be encouraged? Is my OverExcitabilty showing?
