Word of the Day Challenge: Exterminate or Exerpate

Let’s play word of the day! I give you a random word, I give you three potential meanings for that word. All you have to do is pick out which the right meaning is. Sounds easy enough right? Well let’s put you to the test. Today’s word of the day is EXTERPATE. Does that mean number one to empty one’s bowels? Number two to cause to tense up? Or number three to rip up by the roots and destroy? If you guessed number three to rip up by the roots and destroy, then congratulations, you’re correct! If you got it wrong this time then don’t worry, there’s going to be plenty of other chances to play word of the day. Thanks for playing!
