Награды:
| Правила: желающие выкладывают здесь загадки на английском языке. Можно писать и русские загадки, но переведенные на английский язык. Только так, чтобы смысл от этого не менялся и не зависел от языка. Загадывать можно сразу несколько штук одновременно. Чтобы загадка не потерялась, выделяйте ее жирным шрифтом, ответ на загадку - фиолетовым. Еще не забывайте подтверждать правильный ответ. Список загадок-отгадок здесь. Пожалуйста, не повторяйте их.
Но если загадка, которую Вы хотите загадать есть в этом списке, но она так и осталась неразгаданной, а у Вас есть на нее ответ, Вы можете загадать ее еще раз.

| I dont know wether the man is telling the truth or not 
на самом деле у Ангела большие белые крылья,
но ты понимаешь это лишь тогда,
когда он повернулся к тебе спиной,
и когда уже поздно.......

| Quote (sorciere) | | the bottle, the river, the tunnel, the cave |
All of them are good enough! Though initial answer was - the river.
Make three fourths of a cross,
And a circle complete;
And let two semicircles
On a perpendicular meet;
Next add a triangle
That stands on two feet;
Next two semicircles,
And a circle complete. |
