Thought it started with a "Z".

Zeitgeber

A zeitgeber is any external or environmental cue that entrains or synchronizes an organism's biological rhythms to the Earth's 24-hour light/dark cycle and 12 month cycle. The term "zeitgeber" was first used by Jürgen Aschoff, one of the founders of the field of chronobiology. His work demonstrated the existence of endogenous (internal) biological clocks, which synchronize biological rhythms.

1 letter needs to be yanked out of where it is and stuck in a different place.

I have one ... *cool gaze round thread* ... now where should I stick it...?

oh...and did we say we like humans too? Well we do :)

I presume that's not it, unless you're talking about the way us lot keep finding reasons to have weaponised arguments with one another in an en masse kind of way

You got it in two. I was hoping that odd grouping of letters would keep you busy. I must not put a clue up next time.

PM on the way.

I would have floundered on, possibly interminably, without the clue Admiral, so thank you :)

And here is your new jumble

adeilmnoprs

It has one letter in the correct position

adelnoprism

adelnoprism has 0 letters correctly placed, Admiral.

To help you get over how depressed that must have left you, I'm going to give you a clue.

As isogram is to itself, this word is not.

You're welcome

:)

edit: That's why it's a word

another edit: otherwise it wouldn't be.

Allow me to clarify :)

As "isogram" is what it says is an isogram, this jumbled word isn't what another word says is one when it is, which is why it's opposite.

That's why I said this:

edit: That's why it's a word

another edit: otherwise it wouldn't be.

So, returning to the beginning where I said up there:

Allow me to clarify :)

You're very,

very

welcome, everyone :)

radionlemps - a word where radio seems like a good way to start until you realize it only leaves one more vowel

radionslemp - alternate spelling of the above that has only one letter matching the original

Thank you for your words.

These don't have a single letter right
1. mrspalinode
2. mrdelapsion
3. plainedmors
4. randomspiel
5. radionlemps

These have one correct
6. spidermanlo
7. denialromps
8. mrpalinodes
9. radionslemp

but they're all different

This gives you a success rate of around four percent.

edit: or a 96% failure rate

Two very distinct ways of saying well done

:)

YES!!

It proves the word palindrome is not a palindrome, people

It's good to have proof

Thank you for playing :) and now it's your turn, Admiral. I'm going to repeat that in your inbox too.
