I think that every word of four letters is a good solution for your quiz. Starts with the same four letters that ends with.

OK...
You can have HOTSHOTS (4), OUTSCOUTS (4), and...don't seem so surprised, you can have EINSTEINS (4) too.
OKEY-DOKEY is hyphenated, so no dice there.
I'm not sure I believe BELLABELLA.
But...TANGANTANGANis genuine, if not common. So you can have that too.
You kicked my ass!

And all I had was a pathetic ABRACADABRA (4)

Dan

I'm clutching at straws now..........

I don't suppose i could have OKEYDOKEY for four, or OUTSCOUTS or maybe

OVERCOVER................... I thought not ))

Ok Dan

I must admit UNDERGROUNDER was a long shot!

However Can i have HOTSHOTS for four

now i know i am pushing it with EINSTEINS for four

but there is a tribe of indians from british columbia called BELLABELLA for five

And apparantly a plant (which yields an oil for removing warts) called TANGANTANGAN for six.

By the way Dan i am a Mr (or at least i was last time i looked) Lol

OK Mr/Miss Gasm...

I will give you 'OUTSHOUTS', although I didn't know about that one. So well done.
But you can't have 'UNDERGROUNDER' because it's not in the dictionary.

So there is still one more (I think one anyway) with the same 4 letters at the beginning and the end.

Yup. There is one.

And as far as I know there is only one.

Keep thinking.

I know about 'UNDERGROUND' being the word which ends with the same three letters it starts with. Four letters?

Can you name a word in the English language that ends with the same four letters it starts with?

Clues available if you're nice, but I don't think it's THAT difficult.
