GLI English Riddles!

Hello, this is Bhushan from GLI!
At GLI, we also value learning English while having fun.

 

So, today, I'm going to give you myEnglish Riddle.I would like to submit a question ^ ^.

 

first (of all)Riddles."in English.Riddle."I say. We will give you 6 such "Riddle" questions, so please think about it with your children.

 

(1) What has a head and a tail, but no body.

[Japanese translation
What's the one that has a head and tail but no body?

 

[Answer.
Coin

 

[Commentary
Sometimes a coin is tossed to determine the order of play or who wins or loses. At that time, we say "heads or tails. This is a riddle that you will understand if you know the English expression for "heads or tails" of a coin!

 

You're running a race and pass the person in 2nd place. What place are you in now?

[Japanese translation
You are running in a race and you have passed the person in second place. Now, what is your current rank?

 

[Answer.
2nd place

 

[Commentary
This is a bit of a trick question. Didn't it fool you? LOL!

 

I would say first place, but the first place has not been overtaken yet. So, even if we do overtake the 2nd place, in the end, we will still be, you know, 2nd ^ ^.

 

The alphabet is the most water-intensive of all the alphabets.

[Japanese translation
What is the most watery letter in the alphabet?

 

[Answer.
c

 

[Commentary
"C" and "Sea" are pronounced the same, right? And there is a lot of water in the ocean, right? So the answer was "C"! LOL!

 

What can you catch but not throw?

[Japanese translation
What's the one thing you can catch but can't throw?

 

[Answer.
A cold

 

[Commentary
The answer comes from the idiom "catch a cold. You say "Catch a cold" but not "Throw a cold". It was a riddle-like problem, wasn't it?

 

5) What flowers grow under your nose?

[Japanese translation
What are the "flowers" that grow under your nose?

 

[Answer.
Tulips

 

[Commentary
To explain, this is a pun on two words that are pronounced similarly. The flower "tulips" and "two lips". There are two lips under the nose, right? That's where this riddle comes from. LOL!

 

⑥I'm tall when I'm young and I'm short when I'm old. what am I?

[Japanese translation
What is it that is high when you are young and low when you get older?

 

[Answer.
Candle

 

[Commentary
Let me explain, candles get shorter the more you use them, don't they? This was a unique riddle that made good use of that!

 

The first is the "M" in the "M".

 

English Riddle.How was it? ^ ^

 

I would be happy if they can further develop a love of English through this kind of play!

 

Thank you again for today.　Bhushan.
