| Association Game - A game of vocabulary. Person 1 says a word, and the next person names a related word that it makes them think of (and provide a definition). For a little bit more challenge, you can choose to include Devanagari, but you don\'t have to. Just be sure to include a Romanized word and it\'s definition in English :) Let\'s try? Khalti - pocket खल्ती | |
