Problem Six: Sound of Fitness
Nov 1st, 2006 by Allen
I’m a ten-letter word, but when I am heard,
It is a surprise, but I’m half that size.
My first sound is found when half isn’t around.
When a pair is amiss, the other is called this.
The second has one where normally two form a pair.
You will get the nod if you look in a pod.
Together, my fifth and third hold music that is heard.
A pair you are seeking, alphabetically speaking.
And the fourth sound, it will be found
If you look where I send, in the middle of end.
What word am I?
