Another language quiz.  From me. How boring.  As always, points will be awarded. Here are the rules. I give a word and either "synonym", "definition", or "both" in brackets without quotes of course. This is just a game that can give you points for defining/synonym-ing words. "both" needs an answer for both a synonym and a definition, and no dividing up the things. Use only your mind as a source, nothing else. Some questions may have more than one word, you are not allowed to answer them separately. Any comments may be included in the brackets too. You may not use any form of the root word in the definition. These words are known well, but defined or replaced more difficultly. Good luck! 1. number (both), worth 2 points 2. calendar (synonym), worth 1 point 3. pen (definition) and pencil (definition), worth 1 point 4. smile (definition) and frown (synonym) and expression (synonym, any form of the word), worth 2 points 5. a (both), worth 3 points (edited by Geno on 03-27-04 10:24 PM) (edited by Geno on 03-30-04 07:06 PM) |

| 1. Wow. Nice. Points to you. 2. That's good. 3. Clockworkz won, very specific. 4. Yes. 5. Clockworkz, you may not use the word "a" in the definition of "a". I know, annoying, but I've managed to do it before. Your "an" thing is acceptable, though. It's up for grabs, this time with definition only and it's worth only 2... Changed the rules a little, will edit this post for Round 2. Round 2- 5. a (definition), worth 2 points 6. dot (definition) and line (definition) and circle (synonym) and square (synonym), worth 2 points 7. English (definition) and French (definition) and Spanish (definition), worth 1 point 8. yes (both) and no (both), worth 1.5 points 9. box (synonym), worth 0.5 points 10. list (both) and change (both) and water (definition, no science-ish definitions like H2O) worth 2 points (edited by Geno on 03-30-04 07:16 PM) |
