Some days ago, that's what I thought: "Why would I hide what I just bought?" Your questions, they don't have to rhyme but I hope they'll be sublime! (: | ||

Well, did you hide what you had bought? Had others for that item sought? And did you buy it for another, Friend or neighbor, sis or brother? | ||

Well, did you hide what you had bought? Had others for that item sought? And did you buy it for another, Friend or neighbor, sis or brother? No, I did not hide a thing - not in winter, not in spring (To ask you have a reason - not in any other season. And I guess I have to say that there might be an FA because I wrote "the thing I bought" which is not quite the rightest thought. | ||

Was the thing : physical? just a thought? And in the end -- did you bought that? Did you hide it from your friends? From you foes? (insert a rhyme here) Poor Shakespeare. There's a reason why he wrote poetry and I'm doing contracts :-) | ||

Would you have the hiding done To keep it out of the eye of someone, For (s)he couldn't use it while you slept As you wanted it for yourself be kept? Or would you keep it out of eyes Not to $poyle someone's surprise? Or maybe the thing is so confusing For noone knows that you're buying it and using? | ||

Was the thing : physical? just a thought? And in the end -- did you bought that? Did you hide it from your friends? From you foes? (insert a rhyme here) It was physical and not a thought but there was nothing that I bought. And so there was no need to hide it from my friends or from my bride (I'm not a Shakespeare either) Would you have the hiding done To keep it out of the eye of someone, For (s)he couldn't use it while you slept As you wanted it for yourself be kept? Or would you keep it out of eyes Not to $poyle someone's surprise? Or maybe the thing is so confusing For noone knows that you're buying it and using? I'm sorry I have to tell you so but all of them are straight a no. And to give a little hint there's more than one thing relevint (Ouch!) | ||

Do other men or women too Something in this puzzle have to do? Was the object or even more Bought by someone we should't ignore? And if even one of these assumptions is true, Was the one to seek the object(s) you? | ||

So were they multiple things? Were they (ummm, thinking) .. let's say " objects powered electrically" .. or just kings? Did you hide them out of shame? Or are more people to blame? Geez, I thing the questioning is harder than the solution :-) | ||

Did someone think you had bought it When in fact you didn't? Did someone think that you had something you had perhaps hidden? I am afraid my rhymes tonight Are simply a disgrace Should Shakespeare rise now from the dead He'd slap me in the face! | ||

Do other men or women too Something in this puzzle have to do? Yes, there are some more indeed and I hope this won't mislead Was the object or even more Bought by someone we should't ignore? If the objects were bought or not - bout this I don't know a lot And if even one of these assumptions is true, Was the one to seek the object(s) you? No, they were not sought by me The only thing I did was see. So were they multiple things? Were they (ummm, thinking) .. let's say " objects powered electrically" .. or just kings? Yes, there were things more than one but electrical was none. Which is relevant somewhat - maybe give it a second thought? Did you hide them out of shame? Or are more people to blame? No, shame is not at all involved. Your other question was just solved: Other people do play a role, finding out bout them is your goal. Did someone think you had bought it When in fact you didn't? No, there was no assumption made if I had for some objects paid. Did someone think that you had something you had perhaps hidden? Same answer as the one above - I hope you do this puzzle love (: | ||

Did someone some object bought? More than a person (just a thought)? Are gifts relevant at all? (Because the Christmas' coming That would not be that surprising) At the time, were you'n a mall? When you witnessed it, as I recall? Where they thieves, by any chance? Two young people, in romance? | ||

Did someone some object bought? More than a person (just a thought)? I'm sure there were some objects sold (for some euros, not for gold) Are gifts relevant at all? (Because the Christmas' coming That would not be that surprising) Maybe as presents they were bought but that's not an important thought. At the time, were you'n a mall? When you witnessed it, as I recall? No, a mall is not where I was however, you are somewhat close Is there any English speaking country in the world where "was" and "close" rhyme? I doubt it. Where they thieves, by any chance? Two young people, in romance? I'm afraid, that's twice a no - next round of questions, here we go! | ||

Did a sign or something say That this thing was made to be hidden away? Or is this puzzle as much fun To be referring to a pun? | ||

Did a sign or something say That this thing was made to be hidden away? A sign is what I saw indeed with something on it you can read. However, there is more to it, I hope you get the lastest bit. Or is this puzzle as much fun To be referring to a pun? It's not what I would call a pun But you're OTRT, dearest hun! | ||

Okay, let's see, this sign that you read, "hide this object" quite literally it said? Or did you misunderstand what it meant? Or maybe on purpose its meaning you bent? Or is the secret in this game that there is something about the name? Like for instance, if I may be so free, that the object was called something like a "Haydmee"? I remember that I once a fake stone did see, inside of which you cold hide your key out in your garden, and nobody'd know - I don't suppose this is anything like that, though? | ||

Yes, I misunderstood it indeed and thought "hide this object" was what it said. When I found out what was actually ment I started on purpose to its meaning to bent. Or is the secret in this game that there is something about the name? Like for instance, if I may be so free, that the object was called something like a "Haydmee"? This is quite a good idea, but that's a noish, well, you see. I remember that I once a fake stone did see, inside of which you cold hide your key out in your garden, and nobody'd know - I don't suppose this is anything like that, though? I'm sorry that I have to say that this is once again a 'nay' | ||

Was "Hide this object" only a part of the message, the point to start? Was the other part under something covered And therefore by you not discovered? Would the whole phrase, if that's the case say: "keep out of reach of children, in safe place"? | ||

Would the whole phrase, if that's the case say: "keep out of reach of children, in safe place"? That's another clever thought, but unfortunately the answer is not There might be a BLOOPER slight: On the sign there was marked "hide". To solve this puzzle properly some basic French might turn out to be of a certain help, you see. | ||

Was the sign in French so written? Was it there a mistake? (I know one who speaks French - a kitten) "Cacher" is relevant -- or better throw it in the lake? | ||

Was the sign in French so written? Yes, in French it was indeed Was it there a mistake? and a mistake was there to read (I know one who speaks French - a kitten) "Cacher" is relevant -- or better throw it in the lake? "cacher" is indeed the verb I seek (which means "hide", for those who don't speak French. Nevertheless, you should stay cause you might have a lil thing to say! | ||

This puzzle I've been following has reached a situation That I can't understand, so please: a recapitulation? Sure thing that I will do a recap just for you (: I'll do it on prose, hope you don't mind. Some weeks ago, I was in a place yet to be determined where things (yet to be determined) are sold. There was a sign that read "Cacher", which is French for "hide", and I thought "Why would I hide what I just bought?" until I realised that there was a mistake on the sign. | ||

Aha! Was it supposed to be written 'cachet'? Though what that means I cannot say My other langish Is Mexo-Spanish. Or is this just another WA? "Cachet" is not the word we seek. (doesn't matter if French you speak!) Maybe you should figure out what kind of products we're talking bout. | ||

Do we need to determine what tongue Was writ on the sign that was hung? Was the product a food? A container imbued With other small items? (Um...slung?) | ||
| Doriana (Doriana)
New member Username: Doriana Post Number: 2408 Registered: 12-2010 |
Do we need to determine what tongue Was writ on the sign that was hung? French is the language of the sign but your French skills don't have to be fine to solve this puzzle. Just keep in mind "cacher" is what on the sign you find. Was the product a food? A container imbued With other small items? (Um...slung?) Yes, food the products were indeed but remember, product s is what you read! There might be some containers too with items in there more than two. | ||

Is food in question eaten cold? Or warm it's usually sold? Was the food meant to be prepared Or to eat it just exactly there? And I will ask, as would Kaylee If a cheeseburger it could be? If "s" in "products" is an important switch, Please answer for the product each. And one last question by the way, Is "Cashier" what the sign should say? | ||

Is food in question eaten cold? Or warm it's usually sold? At the time the things are sold they're never warm but always cold. Some of them are cold when you eat, others you will have to heat. Was the food meant to be prepared Or to eat it just exactly there? You'll usually take home the food, eating it right there wouldn't be that good. And I will ask, as would Kaylee If a cheeseburger it could be? No, a cheezburger it is not (and they're usually eaten hot.) If "s" in "products" is an important switch, Please answer for the product each. I can't be oh so specific cause the number of products is terrific! And one last question by the way, Is "Cashier" what the sign should say? Although this is a nice idea it's not the right one, unfortunately. | ||

As for the word we need, Were the products labelled with it? Or is the container what we should have in mind When seeking the label of that kind? Were you in the shop of ordinary kind, Where various products one can find? Or at the market where - oh well, villagemen fresh groceries sell? | ||

As for the word we need, Were the products labelled with it? Or is the container what we should have in mind When seeking the label of that kind? The word was found we're looking for, itself was found on the containers and on the shelf. Were you in the shop of ordinary kind, Where various products one can find? Or at the market where - oh well, villagemen fresh groceries sell? Yes, it was a normal shop where for buying food you stop. | ||

Did the products come in packs Like the sweets, french fries or snacks? And for the third time, sorry for my long absence. Busy weeks!! Was that word of the humble fame Simply just a products' or brand's name? Yes, the products came in packs but that's not all that was on the racks. And no, it's not the product's name that is the key to the lateral game Did you, yourself, the item buy And take it home to test and try? And did you, yourself, Redwine, Find it nasty or find it fine? No, I did not buy the thing and to my cozy place it bring. And I'm not Redwine, by the way, but confusing us, that is ok (: Was the product soup or stew? Some of them might have been soup but they belong to a larger group | ||

A new RECAP (in prose): I was at a supermarkt. There was a shelf with lots of different products, all of which were pre-packaged. On both some of the food containers and on the shelf itself it said "cacher", which is the French word for "to hide". I thought "Why would I hide what I just bought?" until I realised there was a mistake on the sign. | ||

Was "cacher" only part of the word that was writ-- The entirety not, but just rather a bit? No, cacher was the word complete that on the shelf you could well read Did those who put there the food have in mind "le cacherout"? Kosher bread and kosher jam, maybe even kosher ham? Almost! Here's the reward for your toil - it now is about time to spoil! ********SPOILER******** (in prose, since I'm a bit lazy) I was at a supermarket where they had a shelf labeled "produits cacher" which literally translates to "products hide", so of course I was wondering why they would tell people to hide their groceries, or why anyone would want to do that in the first place. Upon closer inspection, the products turned out to be kosher, which in French is "casher", not "cacher", and it made sense again. Nice work, my poetically inclined friends! Don't forget to have a look at my two other puzzles, and there might be a new Doriana puzzle later today as well.} |
