Wiix,Read the rules in the first post of this game!! It can be a compound word, as well as two words.:D Twink explains the rules in detail.
This game is a fun way to exercise your brain muscles!
Say we start with the couplet "sunny days." Borrow a word (or part of a word) to create the next play.
You could play "sunny days --> night and day," or "sunny days --> sunstroke."
OR you could get creative (more fun!) and use a homonym (same sound, different spelling):
"sunny days --> dazed and confused" OR "sunny days --> Sonny Bono."
Or even reverse the spelling: "sunny days --> saleslady."
Be creative! Let's play!
