Dot to dot. A new skill every day. In five minutes. Hey guys, today we are looking at a skill all about homophones.
It's called Homophonic Spree. And it's more about, I don't know, the probability of words in the English language as opposed to how good a f***er can hear things. You'll see. So yeah, homophones, you know, like here and here, as opposed to a homonym, like Roe and Rae, for example.
So yeah, homophones, words that sound the same. Alexa, open Homophonic Spree. Welcome back. Your previous high score was ten coins.
Say, start game, to see if you can beat it. Start game. Let's start with, eruptive. When I hear you say it, which one of these words do you think I'll hear?
One, E-R-U-P-T-I-V-E, or two, I-R-U-P-T-I-V-E. Is it, one, or two? One. You think I'll hear number one.
Okay, now say this, eruptive. Eruptive. You guessed eruptive spelled E-R-U-P-T-I-V-E. I heard eruptive, spelled I-R-U-P-T-I-V-E.
Sorry, now you have nine coins. Next we have facts. When I hear you say it, which one of these words do you think I'll hear? One, F-A-C-T-S, or two, F-A-X.
Is it, one, or two? One, surely that's there. You chose number one. Okay, now say this, facts.
Facts. Your guess was facts spelled F-A-C-T-S, which is exactly as I heard it. You have earned one coin. You now have ten coins.
Next we have sinking. When I hear you say it, which one of these words do you think I'll hear? One, S-I-N-K-I-N-G, or two, S-Y-N-C-H-I-N-G. Is it, one, or two?
Two. I would say that's more good. You guessed number two. Now say this, sinking.
Sinking. Your guess was sinking spelled S-Y-N-C-H-I-N-G, which is exactly as I heard it. Two, or three? One, surely.
You selected number one. Okay, now say this, reigned. Reigned. You guessed strange spelled R-A-I-N-E-D.
I thought I heard reigned spelled R-A-I-N-E-D. Sorry, now you have ten coins. Next we have beta. When I hear you say it, what do you think I hear you say?
One, B-A-I-L-E-R. Two, B-A-I-L-O-R. Or three, B-A-L-E-R. Is it, one, two, or three?
Stop. Sure, we'll be the B-A-I-L-E-R. But, as we've seen earlier, you just can't tell. Bye.
Bye. Okay, guys, there you go. I'm a phonic spree. Weird.
