Good Morning Riddlers! :wave:



Happy Tuesday! :banana: and what better way to celebrate a Tuesday than with Spoonerisms! :cool1: :cool1: PM me when you have the answer...


A spoonerism is a pair of words that can have their initial sounds switched to form new words. The pairs need only sound the same, not necessarily be spelled the same (power saw & sour paw, horse cart & coarse heart). There may sometimes be one or two connecting words (kick the stone & stick the cone, king of the rats & ring of the cats). Given the following definitions, what are the spoonerisms?


1) a brittle candy and a lock's need & a beverage and a beverage
2) pigmented coating on the upper surface of a room & a holy leper



Have a great day! :wave:
 
I don't spoonerize and my PMs aren't working today but here's a pic to get me in:

I googled it. These are the kinda things that work, right?
 
:confused: I don't think I'll ever get this:rotfl: See ya tomorrow
 

That's ok...the Brat will be happy about the Spoonerisms. :snooty:


it can be like a lil birthday present for him. ;)
 
Goooood morning, everybody!

I'm half in.
 
I've got to get ready for work but wanted to tell you about my favorite spoonerism that I think of every time the word is mentioned. Nebo had it in his trip report a while back.

It has to do with Brad and Angelina's baby. The poor child's name can be made into a spoonerism. Shiloh is her first name. ;)

Have a wonderful day, everyone!
 
I see someone who isn't leading us anywhere.

Yeah, I have to go to a place where they take over 12 years of experience and have her do important stuff, like mail, answering phones, important stuff like that:rolleyes:
