Word Challenges for various defined words the meanings of which are changed by one letter.

Word Challenge #4 Answer

Add a letter to the beginning of a word meaning "a gap or break in something where it has split apart or a serious disagreement that disrupts good relations" and you will create a second word meaning "to go from one place to another, never staying anywhere for very long and seeming to have little purpose".
