Find The Word

[jordanisonfire]

So, basically, what you do is give a definition of a word and the next person has to guess what the word is. The person who gave the definition must then look in a thesaurus, if the word the person stated isn't exact, and if the word they gave is a synonym of the real word, then the person who guessed it may give their own definition. They may be as simple or complex as you like. :)

So, we shall begin with: the intention or desire to cause harm or pain to somebody.

malice?

[jordanisonfire]

That's right. :)

[Andy]

Okay, um: arousing or provoking laughter

[GeorgeMichael]

apparently risible, though that would not have been my first choice or guess...

excessive, more than is required.

[Andy]

Yeah, the word was "comical". :)

Um, is it superfluous?

[GeorgeMichael]

see, that was my first choice, but then I looked it up and apparently that's the exact definition of risible so...

Yes it is superfluous.

Ok, I'm off to bed now and getting ready for school, good night all.

[Andy]

Okay, new one. Hint: it's a compound word, first begins with "R", second begins with "C":
the deliberate changing of previously established facts in a work of serial fiction

[Nyx]

Retroactive continuity ? (that took me forever to look up so please say it's right -hopeful-)

ok here's mine: a religion started in ancient Persia tha teaches that there is one God and a continuing struggle in the world between forces of light and darkness

[Andy]

Yes, that's right. Nice work! *lets someone else answer*

[Aet Lindling]

Mazdaism? (also known as... um... *looks it up* Zoroastrianism)

[Nyx]

yep it was Zoroastrianism:D
