Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. A game of Crambo starts with one player thinking of a secret word and telling the other what it rhymes with. The first player thinks of the word "audacious" and says, "I'm thinking of a word that rhymes with voracious." The second player must figure out what the secret word could be, but can only guess by describing its meaning. Player two wonders if the secret word might be "spacious". Thus, this player must guess by describing the word "spacious". How does he do this in question form?
2. After learning he was wrong, your opponent pauses momentarily and then asks, "Is it deceptive or false?" Now assume the role of the first player who must decipher which word is being asked by replying with, "No, it is not..." and then the word which was described. Ignore the seeming negation of the words "no" and "not". (Remember, the vocabulary word being asked for is defined as "deceptive or false".)
3. Player two scratches his chin before he thinks of a new guess. He asks, "Is it talkative?" How do you respond?
4. A new guess flashes in your opponent's mind and he asks you, "Is it transitory or short-lived?" How do you tell him that he's wrong?
5. You thought you had him stumped, but player two finally thinks of a new guess. He poses the question, "Is it quick to argue or fight?" How will you respond?
6. Feeling confident, player two poses the question, "Is it persistent or stubborn?" How do you respond?
7. Your opponent isn't giving up yet. He takes another guess and asks, "Is it lying or untruthful?" How do you tell him he's wrong?
8. Player two manages another guess; he asks, "Is it wise or astute?" How will you respond?
9. With a new confidence, player two poses the question, "Is it fond of having heated arguments?" How do you respond?
10. Your opponent is just about ready to give up. He manages one last, hopeful guess. He asks, "Is it soapy?" How do you tell him that he's wrong one last time?
