Would you like to play the Dictionary game with me? Rules and details inside.

I was taught this game about 20 years ago by some priests on a train through the Rockies. I’m sure you’ve all seen variations of it – I shall attempt to adapt it to Fluther.

We are somewhat limited by the fact that one post comes after another – so here’s my idea:

I post a word and a definition. The next jelly (or jellies – it’s an honour based game anyway so it doesn’t matter how many respond to a post/word) decides whether it’s a real definition or a fake one and posts his/her own.

Let’s keep the definitions simple – so that everone can play, i,e. not an actual dictionary style posting.

Here we go:

Butterfly: Originally flutter-by.

Now you decide whether this is true or not. Then proceed to check in the dictionary and give yourself a lurve if you got it right. Don’t forget to make up another one for the next jelly. Hell, make up a few if you wish.

Enjoy!
