What's your guess?
At Sunday School yesterday we played a modified version of Balderdash, a game in which you basically make up answers to try to fool people into believing that you are right.
Here are some words that I gave them to create definitions for. (yes, I did assume that they did not know the correct answer!)
What are your attempts to define these words? (without looking on websters.com)
VERBIGERATION
ASPERGILLUM
BAFALO
CHINQUAPIN
SARCOLOGY
I will share their guesses another day as well as the correct answer.
Also, Happy Birthday to my big sister. Hope it was a good one.
