  1. If you take the first letter of each word, place it at the end of the word and read it backwards, the words read the same as they did forwards.

  6. I so wasn't clever enough to get that... I thought it had something to do with double letters or something...

  8. Hmm. Seems like they have repetitive letters, but now I'll go check out the real answer. I added you to my blogroll tonight, Kenju. Is that your real name, by the way? It's very pretty.

  10. I just thought it was that there were at least two sets of double letters in each word. Oh, well. It was a bad guess. :-(

    Michele sent me this way just to get stumped, Judy. :-)

  11. Hi Judy ~~ Very clever. Like most I thought it was double letters of 3 vowels in a word. Had to look. Thanks.
    Also thanks for your comments. I will see what I can come up with.Meanwhile
    it is good to give folks a laugh.
    Take care, Merle.

  12. I get it (after you explained it)!!!
    That is sort of like my name: Eddie!

    By the way, the magic word I have to type in this time to get your reply section to accept my reply is ovhij,
    which at a quick glance makes me think of "over the hill".

  16. Kenju I am really dumb on those word games so I didn't even try.:)

    The wedding flowers are so beautiful and what a delight to hear all those wonderful Irish accents. My husband and I (with daughter and son in law went to Ireland a few years back)Part of the delight of the trip was the lilting Irish accents.
