Turkish Game 6: Which word doesn\'t belong here? - Hi Everybody, Most of you know this game i think and hope :)

You should single out the word that doesn\'t belong here and afterwards translate all the words into english. When you do so provide next 4 words.

haydi başlayalım! let\'s start!

gül, papatya, lale, kavun

sıradaki!? the next!? :D
MeryFriday 26th of May 2006 03:41:21 PM
- Great idea Osman :D Thanks for starting this new game.

[b]kavun[/b] doesn\'t belong because it\'s a fruit -> melon.

Gül = rose, papatya = camomile, lale = tulip.

My words:

[b]bira, süt, su, oralet[/b]
GijsFriday 26th of May 2006 05:04:49 PM
- I agree, this is fun! :)

ok...ehmm

I see three thinks that you can drink, and the 4\'th word
oralet doesn\'t belong here i think.
I can\'t find it\'s meaning in a dictionary:(

My words:

[b]parmak, el, bacak, deniz[/b]

oralet is orange tea ;)

all of others were without alcohol except bira ;)

anyway,

parmak=finger
el=hand
bacak=leg
deniz=sea
so the answer is deniz

MeryFriday 26th of May 2006 06:15:31 PM

-
ıstakoz = lobster
deniz yıldızı = starfish
deniz kestanesi = sea... i couldnt find its English but it lives in sea :)
kirpi = hedgehog

sevmek, hoşlanmak, nefret etmek, beğenmek

clue: emotions-related
TemplarSaturday 03rd of June 2006 08:34:47 PM
- I had said please try to find a difference OTHER THAN living in the sea or on ground but ok :)

ıstakoz = lobster
deniz yıldızı = starfish
deniz kestanesi = sea... i couldnt find its English but it lives in sea
kirpi = hedgehog

all of them are echinoderm (derisidikenliler ?) except one. Hedghehog is mammiferous (memeli) not an echinoderm :D


sevmek,hoşlanmak, beğenmek all mean to love, to like etc but nefret etmek = to hate

MeryMonday 05th of June 2006 08:43:15 PM
