Good job to all those who had this or something similar (like crossing guard). I did have another answer in mind though. a rudder, mostly in a nautical sense. for line 4, a rudder can be a ship captain's navigational reference book Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only know that from reading James Clavell's Shogun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know, but I've seen a few riddles where the answer took on different spellings in accordance with certain sections of the riddle. For instance, there was a recent one where the answer was 'sail', but the word 'sale' was also part of the riddle. Where were you then?!?! ...j/k. They both sound the same if that makes you feel better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wait a moment, I get that sail sounds like sale, and there sounds like their (and they're), and stare sounds like stair and so on... but how does rutter sound like rudder? Surely bending the "sounds like" rules a bit??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
