0 EDM Posted August 10, 2009 Report Share Posted August 10, 2009 (edited) i am thinking 'words'......it's not tangible, not a verb..... you rarely have the first word, but never the last....maybe often penultimate combines other words, sometimes adding words.......atleast it makes sense to me Edited August 10, 2009 by EDM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Guest Posted August 10, 2009 Report Share Posted August 10, 2009 Nothing right yet, though EDM is kind of on the right track. I'm curious as to see what you guys think the rule of riddling I'm breaking is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 plainglazed Posted August 10, 2009 Report Share Posted August 10, 2009 Hey DarthNoob. Great way to kickstart the old gears this Monday morn. ...the word you are looking for is and? no, it cant be because there it is at the end of a sentence.

0 plasmid Posted August 10, 2009 Report Share Posted August 10, 2009 Bit 'o a pro'lem: 'twas certain 'o the answer lyin' by my fingertips' reach 'til realizin' it's sometimes seen e'en at some words' ends, too... 'less 'o course you didn't have an apostrophe in mind. Actually, scratch that. An apostrophe can only come at the end of a word if it's indicating the possessive form of a word that is already plural (or for some other reason ends in "s"). If it's indicating possession, then there must be another word following -- the noun that's being possessed. Hence, a properly used apostrophe can come at the end of a word but can't come at the end of a sentence. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great way to kickstart the old gears this Monday morn. ...the word you are looking for is and? no, it cant be because there it is at the end of a sentence. Correct! & lol at it being at the end of a sentence Bit 'o a pro'lem: 'twas certain 'o the answer lyin' by my fingertips' reach 'til realizin' it's sometimes seen e'en at some words' ends, too...

Question
Guest
Here I break a rule of riddling
...Because I can
I don't care what you think,
You can kiss my hand
Here and there, it's more common than
The many colds you've met
Rarely first but never last,
Often penultimate
It's not tangible and not a verb,
So don't think of them
This thing combines other things,
Sometimes adding them
More clues you might want but more clues you won't get
So without further ado, go solve it!
