It’s been awhile since I posted a brain teaser, not since Monty Hall died and I posted the Monty Hall problem (click here) last year.
Lately I’ve noticed the profusion of seemingly-random three syllable combinations that are used to name (usually obscure) products, services and other things. I came across eight of them over the last week or so and made note. Let’s see if you can match the name with the corresponding product/service/thing. A couple are easy. For good measure I made up two more. They must mean something horrible in some third-world country or one of the drug companies would be using it (because some of the ones they do use are even worse). So throw them out. Answers in a few days. No cheating….

2. Cosentyx

7. Radisol
8. Triductix

10. Xylitol
