Wild guess: Tom Dick, and Harry


Crikey, Harry rhymes with fairy over there?! But it makes sense (though I'm not 100% on the Dick... never thought I'd hear myself saying /that/...)


no, it doesn't, its the same your pronounciation.... but "sounds like" doesn't neccasarily mean rhyme


Well, according to rhymezone it does rhyme, so it's different for some people at least. Certainly it's not a close enough sound-a-like. But that's rather irrelevant. I'd say "sounds like" did mean rhyme - but usually only on the last syllable, and with other properties such as sibilance as well.

I think commissary fits better than anything I've seen so far...

For the ongoing "nom" debate - yes, you do voice the /m/ in "nom" but not the same way as the /m/ in "mom" - certainly the vowel is a different one in both, so it's not a close sound-a-like, but could pass for one at a pinch I suppose.

Figured out that the Google results were scrambled by rotating the letters from their original value. Compared to the actual file to detemine the letters for translation.

Wouldn't that be "sounds like kiss toe?"

If it's dancing, then shouldn't the question be "A bee and a belle and robots all enjoy this"?

(Sorry; more inopportune humor.)

 		Regarding the 1,1 / 1,2 / 1,3 numbering - the .wav files on humptydumpty.html were numbered week1_subject1, 2, and 3. Maybe we need to find a rhyming word from those files?

 		margarets_market.jpg: He may be big and lumbering, but he definitely moves!
1) 5 2) 1 3) 1 4) 4
5) 2 6) 8 7) 2 8 ) 5
9) 8 10) 7 11) 4 12) 4
13) 2 14) 6

If you put these in order, and convert the number to letters:

Code:
5 1 1 4 2 8 2 5 8 7 4 4 2 6
E A A D B H B E H G D D B F


Probably completely worthless now that I look at it, but maybe it'll spark someone else's imagination.

So we have pencil instead of wabe, and for wabe we've got...

Wabe is a word invented by Lewis Carroll and used in his poem Jabberwocky. In Through the Looking-Glass, Humpty Dumpty explains that a wabe is the plot of grass around a sundial.


Humpty Dumpty, you say?


So could this be a way for us to construct a sundial and the rest could be when to look at it or something?

-checksum


aw, i hope not. Where's an eagle scout when you need one? Who here can build a sundial?

Sounds like kiss ("kiss 2 <points at feet>" isn't valid input Wink)

Actually, the format is slightly different:

The Sleeping Princess wrote:
1,2 sounds like kiss
2 <points at feet>

Which leads me to believe that, in this little game of charades, the first word is the three-parter (mom-kiss-fairy), and the second word is her pointing at her feet. I don't think "kiss" is directly connected to the rest of the clue.

Please re-read the pronunciation above. The "m" is pronounced.

Also please I added a PS after you hit quote, but before you hit submit.

PS, guerre is not pronounced the same as fairy.


Sorry, didn't see the PS. but having spoken french ever since I could speak, I can garantee you the the M is not pronounced. "NOM" is pronounced the same way as "NON".

[UPDATE]
I just looked at the m-w.com website and the pronounciation that they describe would the "englishized" version.
We don't pronounce the "M" but if you want to mess up our words, that's up to you Smile

[CONCLUSION]
Well, it is inconclusive.

NOM doesn't sound like MOM but if you use NOM DE GUERRE, this whole expression becomes english and only then does NOM sound like MOM

Hope I made sense! Laughing
