Yikes. Never had spelling issues before, but I've triple checked everything and it's not taking it.
Edit: Apparently there's multiple spellings for at least one, and it didn't match my bottle. Le sigh.

I suspect that the first vertical is not spelled in the usual manner.

[4] Yes, it has an "i" in it, which was the extra letter I was missing on that one (but wasn't the misspelling that was holding me back, it was the "z" one).

The Z one has several spellings, but the most common (as far as I know it, and Wikipedia) is used.

hmm... I think I have it, but it is saying I am wrong so I must have mispelled something. Of course, when I refreshed this page it deleted all my answers anyway. ugh.

No complaints from me about this one, especially since I was chugging some bottom-across while solving. (Boy, that sounds odd. Maybe the answers could be numbered, for easier reference?)

I must have one of them wrong, because I've checked all the spellings... and all my answers match the theme.
I bet it's the one with the "MAD" issue.

[23] German uses a different set of spelling rules. When two vowels go walking the SECOND one does the talking. This is for upper right down, correct?

I was commenting on both the upper right down, and the upper left down.
Interesting information about German spelling rules.
Thanks!
