Do you understand?

If I hadn't found this box of words on Facebook as a single "image," I would have wanted to correct the grammar and punctuation.  And I would have been wrong.  Do you know why?

If you understand, tell me in the comments how many letters it has.

2 letters.

Right, Chris!

Beth said...

Oh dear...I hope you won't think less of me, Bonnie, if I tell you that I don't understand.

Beth, you've gotta look at it differently, not as a question, but as statements. "What is a word made up of 4 letters." Continue for each word.

Beth said...

Okay...I think I get "it" now. :-) But shouldn't there be quotation marks around the words?

Bonnie Jacobs said...

Sure, but that spoils the "fun" you probably didn't have. (Oops!) Maybe Chris had fun with it, though.

Chris Thompson said...

I did have fun with it. It's a clever little riddle.

Bonnie Jacobs said...

Me, too, Chris. That's why I shared it.
