1) in what context is 'almost' the longest word in the dictionary?

2) you need to work out the 5 letter word (like in a cross word) from the following clue:
H,I,J,K,L,M,N,O << (thats the clue)

answers on the back of a postcard please lets see if you get it

i didnt work out the first but got the second after being told the first letter
