Tonight’s riddle:

[Pappy]

One of the four words does not belong with the other three. Which word does not belong? What is it that the others have in common?


1. Green, yellow, red, blue.
2. April, December, November, June.
3. Cirrus, calculus, cumulus, stratus.
4. Carrots, radishes, potatoes, cabbages.
5. Fork, comb, rake, shovel.

 

[Oris Borloff]

I'll take a stab at it...

1 yellow has 2 syllables the others are singular
2 December the only month with 31 days
3 calculus is not the name of a cloud type
4 cabbages are not root vegetables
5 shovel is the only item that doesn't have tines

1. No blue light on a traffic light.....unless you count the little blue one on top that rats on you to the cops.

I agree with Oris on the rest.

 

[Aunt Marg]

I think Oris, has knocked it out of the park.

1. No blue light on a traffic light.....unless you count the little blue one on top that rats on you to the cops.

I agree with Oris on the rest.

jujube, I think you're right on that one, fits better with the theme of the puzzle.

1. Yellow, Red, and Blue are all primary colors on the color wheel. But Green is secondary because it's a mix of Yellow and Blue.

I agree with Oris on the rest

[Pappy]

Answer: Nice going Oris….only the color one is a little different.


Green. Yellow, red and blue are primary colors, green is not.

2. December. The other months have only 30 days.

3. Calculus. The others are cloud types.

4. Cabbage. The others are vegetables that grow underground.

5. Shovel. The others have prongs.
