| I'm glad, Maribel, you like my game.
It is very interesting what you typed. Maybe, however, you can try to show us your comic Finnish game too...  |

| Wow! 200000 members! I haven't noticed it before! Sure it is worth, Pia!!!
So, let us celebrate! Cheers!!!!  |

| Okey~~
Here's one that I remembered from I don't know how many years ago, not creative, but guess it counts (just so I won't be arrested)...
Knock, knock.
Who's there?
Police.
Police who?
Please open the door, it's cold outside. |

| Cacue, very interesting word game!
You brought my game back to life again! |

| Oh! The rhyme in my sentence wasn't deliberate!  |

| Oh, dear. I know I often pronounce ENGLISH in a wrong way, cause I was taught in this way by my Polish teachers of English...
"again" [egen] but we usually pronounced it [agein]...
so game-again
I really need some practise with the native, who would teach me speaking correctly... Moreover, I really appreciate you are always ready to help me understand my mistakes... Thank you, dear Laura!  |

| I really like this game, too bad we don't have much participants.
Knock Knock!
Who's there?
Vitamin.
Vitamin who?
Vitamin in for a party!
Aneta, why don't you open another topic for this game? People look at the title and don't know here's a game...  |
| 19 August 2009 00:58 |
| Ah - I wondered if that was what you meant. Well, here in North America, most people pronounce "again" as /ə gɛn'/, but I do know a few people who say /ə gɛin'/. I don't know which pronunciation is more common in Britain, and whether there is a class difference implied ...
I do remember a nursery rhyme that went like this:
"What is the matter with Mary Jane?
We're having rice pudding for dinner again ..."
This implies that Jane rhymes with again. But the other problem with your rhyme is that "game" ends with an "m" sound, not an "n" sound, so I doubt that most native speakers would consider that a rhyme, regardless of how they pronounce "again".

| P.S. Sweet Dreams, I love your vitamin one - did you make that up? |
| 19 August 2009 01:06 |
| My dear Sweety again!!! Thank-you-thank you-thank you!!!!! My game is alive thanks to people like you... Always faithful (Semper fidelis)
Very interesting what you has typed, Laura. I really like this kind of conversation. I'm so glad I can learn from you!!!  |
| 19 August 2009 01:08 |
| Well, don't count on me to keep doing this once the semester starts in September - I do this for a living, and I might not have time to do it here, but for now I'm happy to do it. |
| 19 August 2009 01:22 |
| I've just made it up and dedicate it especially to my dear Francky and Lene
Knock Knock!
Who's there?
Cucumer.
Cucumer who?
Cucu, merci beaucoup!

| Oh, Laura... Ok, I'm guilty. I didn't make that up since I'm not very criative, I see all here!
Wow, I loved that Aneta! I really did!  |
| 19 August 2009 01:21 |
| Well, dear Laura. I also do this for a living... but with Latin
I will start teaching again in September too. Not very happy the holidays are finishing, but I'd love to start learning from you, even before September, if it is possible!!!  |

| Knock Knock!
Who's there?
Meand U!
Meand U who?
Me And You, without You!
Do you want to get in?
Yes.
If it's Me and You without You, I'll help you, letting Me outside. |
