Drum roll please...

Last weeks poll question was,
"Which word best completes the sentence :
Lay those text books _____ the others."
And the answers choices were
Buy
-which is chiefly used as a verb, meaning "acquire by payment" (as in buy a house),
and occasionally as a noun: These boots were a good buy.
Bi
- a prefix meaning "two" or "both" (as in biannual, bilateral),
By
-as a prefix means "secondary" or "past"
(as in byproduct, bygone),
and as an adverb or preposition means "beside," "past," "through," etc.
(as in stand by the window, as the years flew by).
Bye
-is used as a noun, denoting an automatic advance in a competition,
or as a short form of goodbye..
So the correct answer was.....
"BY" but you already knew that yeah?
Because it got a surprising 100% of the votes.
Well thanks to everyone who voted,
and don't forget to check out this weeks poll.
BYE!
