Words dealing with all manner of actions, persons, places, and/or things which are spelled with an ' EI ' are listed below with their vowels in place. Your challenge is to find and use the correct consonants to rebuild the words. The possible solutions for some words are numerous but in the end...the consonants will only fit one way Starting Consonants:B B D D F F F G G G H H H H J K L M M N N N N N P P R S S T T  Remaining Consonants:- 1. A-A-EI- (Disneyland's home) - 2. -EI-I-- (China city) - 3. -EI-Y - 4. -EI-- (Uncle Bill Davis) - 5. --EI-- (Pronounced 'nice', type of rock) - 6. -EI-I (Girl of the Alps) - 7. -EI-- (Fencing maneuver) - 8. -EI- (Viking explorer) - 9. -EI---O- - 10. -O--EII
