knights of the round table?

 

[Highfields Seagull]

I've also got a sentance that seems to make sense, but seemingly I can't get it right.

 

[Couldn't give a rats arse]

Again, I can't remember the exact answer, even though I did it last night. Search thesarus.com as the words you need are on there. Meeting Groups is forums. The whole answer is something like :-


Edit - Just remembered - brace is pair. Let us prepare for a <something> getaway. The words is on thesarus.com for firm.

As was I! Something on the PD forum gave me a hint. Something about saying osprey strangely.

 

[Lammy]

let / os prey / pair / for ums / ?? / ghetto/ whey

 

[Lammy]

certain?

 

[Highfields Seagull]

The plural of forum isn't forums.

Think "firm" as in "stuck".

 

[Lammy]

The plural of forum isn't forums.

It is according to the Cambridge dictionary!

Think I've got it but not gettig any lovin' entering my answer

 

[Highfields Seagull]

I think I understand what I have to do for 4.2.5, but I haven't managed to work it out yet.

 

[Lammy]

I think g() means take the literal meaning

I'm trying f() as reversing the text....

 

[Highfields Seagull]

Something like that

g() is the meaning
f() is another word that sounds the same

ie

g(Electrical Power Unit) = Watt
f(watt) = what

f(conker) = conquer
g(conquer) = win

 

[Lammy]

I think I have the first line.

the second line is cRaZy!!

 

[brighton rock]

parts of a bike?

 

[Lammy]

Anyone got any further with 4.2.5?

I've got "What's due profit win" for the first line and

"missed ?" for the second line so far...

Anyone got any further with 4.2.5?

I've got "What's due profit win" for the first line and

"missed ?" for the second line so far...

the first line is what do I win (as in the title!) to explain how to do it i.e.

f(g(Electrical Power Unit))
Watt - What

f(g(Morning condensate))

Dew - Do


f(g(seer))

eye - I

g(f(conker))

conquer - win!


It's the second bit we need to get

 

[Steph]

So far I have got:
f(f(g(fog)):

g(fog) = mist
f(mist) = missed
f(missed) = mis-said?

g(f(g(f(g(sighted) g(listener)))))
g(sighted) = seen
g(listener) = ear
f(seen ear) = seen here
g(seen here) = sighted(?)
f(sighted) = cited
g(cited) = quoted

f(g(f(g(Within Singing Groups)))))

g(within singing groups) = in choir
f(in choir) = enquire
g(enquire) = ask(?)
f(ask) = ?

 

[Lammy]

Your brackets are wrong!

You don't f() missed twice. You need to f() the whole lot.

So with your working it would be

f(missed quote ask)
