I would use "heal" for what a doctor does and "toot" for the sound of a horn. Bruce |

I agree with Bruce; there �s no "p" in hot chocolate, and "hoot" is the sound an owl makes (which could be another clue Sara5 could add to her puzzle). |

hoot is the noise made by the horn of a car, toot can also be used |

I don �t know about other dialects, but as an American, I would never say that a horn hoots. Toot, maybe, but honk (which doesn �t work for this puzzle) is even better. Owls hoot, or one might hoot with laughter, but not horns, not for me. |
