The word is cantle.

As usual, send your daffynitions to the author, Myth Jellies, via PM and don't delete your PM until the game is over.

Sorry, I missed this! Mine is on the way...

<Bump>

I almost missed this, too. Mine is on its way.

Received five so far....

Still stuck at five replies.

I'm sorry, Myth. Let's give them a little more time than normal. We've been a bit slow lately...and I hope that ends soon!

6 so far. Still waiting on a couple more from the regulars.

I sent you one.

OK, last call. Will go with what we have in the next 24 hours.

By the way, expect a slight twist?!?

Okay, here goes.

First, the twists. There are two correct definitions in the list below, and you have to pick them both. I will warn you that one of you might have inadvertantly come close enough to a real definition to qualify as one of the real definitions. Here are your choices.

1: A 2 beat gait of a horse in juvenile horseback riding, similar to a canter.

2: A muzzle used in dog racing.

3: The raised rear part of a saddle.

4: A corner, segment, or portion.

5: A long skirt, popular with well-to-do women in fourteenth century Europe, slashed at the front to reveal the petticoat, which would usually be in a contrasting color.

6: A wooden comb used in weaving with an inkle loom.

7: To create ornate patterns in leather using needles and natural dyes.

8: The bar that mounts the maidens, flyer, bobbin, and tension knob on a spinning wheel; also called the Mother-Of-All.

9: A jig used in constructing the back of a wooden chair.

10: A lighted wax illumination to a celebration of Gregorian chants.

Remember, you have to select two choices as correct definitions.

Well, since I was away around the other side of the world and missed this one, I'll take a wild, jet-lagged jab at #6 and #8!

Wordmatic

let's try 4 and 5

Three and four for me, please.

How fun! Two for the price of one!

I'll guess 6 and 7!

Wow...fun!

4 & 6

we will take 3 and 4

Still waiting for a couple more answers.

Last call for selections.

3 and 4

Sorry, the tax thing reared its ugly head. Sorry also about the red herring with regard to someone's answer maybe being close enough to the truth. I just didn't want anyone taking anything for granted

1: A 2 beat gait of a horse in juvenile horseback riding, similar to a canter. No one fell for TrossL's horsing around.

2: A muzzle used in dog racing. BobH's definition was dogged.

3: The raised rear part of a saddle. Arnie, TrossL, and Jo got this correct and got both of them right.

4: A corner, segment, or portion. One of the correct answers gotten by Kalleh, Bob H, Arnie, Jo, and TrossL

5: A long skirt, popular with well-to-do women in fourteenth century Europe, slashed at the front to reveal the petticoat, which would usually be in a contrasting color. Arnie pulled the fabric over Bob H's eyes.

6: A wooden comb used in weaving with an inkle loom. Caterwauller fooled himself (no points for that) as well as Wordmatic and Kalleh

7: To create ornate patterns in leather using needles and natural dyes. Jo tattooed Caterwauller

8: The bar that mounts the maidens, flyer, bobbin, and tension knob on a spinning wheel; also called the Mother-Of-All. Kalleh took Wordmatic for a spin.

9: A jig used in constructing the back of a wooden chair. No one danced to Myth's jig

10: A lighted wax illumination to a celebration of Gregorian chants. Bob K's offering was refused.

I would like to do the next one. I found a wonderful word. See -- Bluffing Game - Titubation
