Does anyone remember those word riddles where you have to figure the phrase by how the word is written? What exactly are they called?
Examples:
1) GESG
2) RLD
3) 2THDK

i think the 1st and 2nd ones are phrases. like 2THDK might be something like to the...? i don't know. am i on the right path?
Comptine
Feb 8 2009, 01:30 AM
The examples I gave are puzzles. The way they are written is a clue to what the phrase is.
I guess I'll do them:
1) GESG = scrambled eggs
2) RLD = end of the woRLD
3) 2THDK = tooth decay
