There are 10 four letter words and 2 three letter words
That is ambiguous. I do however believe that what is meant is that those words are four letters long only after truncation, from the sentence that follows:
All of the first four, and three, letters of each word are what I have provided.
(emphasis mine)
Yes that darn first makes it seem like you are right.
But in my ignorance I'm going to see if I can come up with 12 words the way I was doing it. Might get an answer and be wrong, but I think I can do it fairly quickly.
