    Hi 'eggalina'! I agree with you! More than that, having looked through my dictionary I read "SCALE" means 1) измерить (рыбу) 2) шкала (термометра) 3) скалолазание ( это подошло к Человеку - Пауку)

    To Mr. Radislav Millrood My strategy to guess the word in Challenge 34 was very simple. I looked at these three subjects " Fish, Thermometer and Spider" and tried to associate them... Variants were different but the word "scale" was the only common feature. Thanks a lot for the interesting task!
