I find the English language great fun for word plays and I love playing trivia when I have the time! The Microsoft Network has some great trivia areas!
My favorite author on the subject of the English language and its possibilities is Richard Lederer, his website is as fun as his books. His books are full of wordplays, little guizzes and other fun stuff, well worth the investment!
As a foreigner, I frequently have to wonder if I spell words correctly. The following poem always helps me remember that there really is no easy way:
| Eye have a spelling checker It came with my Pea Sea It plane lee marks four my revue Miss steaks aye can knot sea. Eye ran this poem threw it, Your sure reel glad two no. Its vary polished in it's weigh My checker tolled me sew. A checker is a bless sing, It freeze yew lodes of thyme. it helps me right awl stiles two read, And aides me when aye rime. |
Each frays come posed up on my screen Eye trussed too bee a joule The checker pour o'er every word To cheque sum spelling rule. Be for a veiling checkers Hour spelling mite decline, And it were lacks or have a laps, We wood be maid to wine. Butt now bee cause my spelling Is checked with such grate flare, Their are know faults with in my cite, Of non eye am a wear. |
Now spelling does know phase me. it does know bring a tier. My pay purrs awl due glad den With wrapped words fare as hear. To rite with care is quite a feet Of witch won should be proud. And wee mussed dew the best wee can Sew flaws are knot aloud. Sow ewe can sea why aye dew prays Such soft ware four pea seas, And why I brake in two averse By righting want too pleas. |
Below are some of my favorite sites for both word plays and trivia.
