Re: Get smarter while donating rice to the hungry
That is an interesting game. Just don't count TOO much on its making you smarter. Some of those definitions are more like explanations...for example (to pick one most of us would know), the correct match for "quince" was "fruit." While quince is a fruit, it certainly does not MEAN fruit. If you didn't know that, you'd think you learned a new word and its definition.
Fun. No time to try it now, thoughBut I'm disturbed! I'm depressed! I'm inadequate! I GOT IT ALL! (George Costanza)
