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

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]

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

sarı,mavi,kırmızı,turuncu

clue: which colour can be obtained by mixing other colurs...


Mery
Monday 05th of June 2006 08:43:15 PM
sarı = yellow
mavi = blue
kırmızı = red
turuncu = orange

=> orange doesn't belong because it's a blend of red and yellow :D

Next...
