"Hi, I'm Cinny Nym, Dean of Faculty at Vocabulary University®.

We have created hundreds of vocabulary puzzles on our web site at www.vocabulary.com. In addition, we have four different separately published puzzles in newspapers and on the web.

(1) Daily Rooty*Hoot*Hoot*® and Word Webs(tm) - black & white for newspapers
These two puzzles are published six times per week (alternating every other day) in the Moline Dispatch and Rock Island Argus.
We self-syndicate these puzzles.

This six times per week vocabulary puzzle has six different backgrounds graphics.
Tribune Media Services Inc. is the syndicator of this daily Rootonym.

(3) Daily Interactive Rootonym® on the web
