View Full Version : The Mother Game II
I don't see a new thread opened so here it is.
For those of you who never played:
We start with a word. Then we take each letter of that word, one at a time. Each word starting with the next letter MUST have some relation to the word, hence, The MOTHER Game.
For example:
INITIATE is the word. You take the first letter "I" and say a word that has something to do with the word INITIATE like this:
INITIATE
Introduction
O.K.? Next letter is "N". Go ahead now, continue............ ;) :hug:

UUHH, :confused: I fail to see the relationship. Can you explain? You DO understand the rules of this game, right?? The word has to have somekind of relationship to the word. :confused: It's ok if you don't get it straight off.
KarenMarie
10-09-2008, 05:58 PM
according to my Roget's - if initiate is a verb - you can either initiate someone or train them
OOOOOOoooOOOoooooOooooooH, O.K. Now I get it. ;) :p
Procede. I wasn't meaning to sound Bitccy. I just couldn't make the connection. I was thinking ChooChoo.
