A palindrome reads the same forwards and backwards. Like tacocat.
A phonetic palindrome is a phrase that sounds the same when played backwards.
Which of the following is NOT a phonetic palindrome?
“Do geese see god?”
“Funny enough.”
“Let Bob tell.”
or “You’re damn mad, Roy.”
The first new player to comment on the website with the correct answer wins a free drink at their next iQ Trivia show.
Do geese see god?
Yes. The two Os make different sounds.
Also…
When I wonder why / What’s never been’s never been so / We would lie when we say ‘Yes, you know we all love you’ / What’s never been’s never been so / Hell, we’re nowhere now.
Is a terrible poem, but it is a phonetic palindrome.
‘Let Bob tell’ is not a palindrome at all.
No it is not. But we’re not asking that.
Ah. I read the question wrong. Again!
Funny enough.
The hg sound is not the same as the gh.
But the gh sound in enough is an F sound, which works in funny.
