I’m thinking of a word that rhymes with Malacca

Can you guess what it is?

shaka?

(Even though Iʻm fluent in the
New England dialect, I think it
would be unfair to make it a
word that ends in "-acker".)

Nice try, your honor, but no cigar.

With your permission, I'd like to provide everyone a hint:

Some said big llama is his true mama.
He said he'd die as a scarf for Madonna.

My 1st is a nickname for Albert et al;
my second is "to carry, concealed";
my third is a mono-letter indefinite article.

Excellent guesses. I don't know the second one. My word doesn't mean "To carry, concealed," but I will post it once I figure it out. :)

Not etcetera, not?, not a

Hint:
Covered with lustrous silky hair
He loves thin green leaves and fresh air
Gentle and friendly
Seldom gets angry
Makes for warm underwear

I still think its what I was guessing in
4. Only the 2nd syllable of it means "to
carry concealed". I have to think of some
other way to say __ __ __ __ __ __,
(!st and last letter are identical, a vowel.)

Alpaca is the answer.
Bravo! Roland.

If you would kindly take my baton and start a new thread, I would be greatly obliged.

Iʻm thinking of a Word that Rhymes
with "E R R"

A funny fellow from the sea
Walks around on ten legs slowly
Born with poor eyesight
Spiny, short in height
But he's sweet and tasty

(9): No. In fact this word,
a noun, canʻt by any stretch of
the imagination be called a
"Fellow"; itʻs inanimate.

Fun yellow, rich red, forest green
Alluring raw, stir fried, or steamed
Shapely like a bell
Serves vegans so well
A friend to keep me lean

Don't yet know what the guess
of 11 is, but the Crambo! word
is not a food.

Soft cotton clothe, or plain paper
Mom loves the second choice better
For baby's green poops
That smell of snake soups
No more laundry later

13: I donʻt know what the guess is,
but one wouldnʻt put the Crambo!
word near a babyʻs skin.

Luminous, scorching hot, flashy.
Without her, the world stays ghastly.
A symbol of life.
Sometimes she brings strife,
Makes fancy things trashy

Roland, I don't understand what we're rhyming with. Is it the word "err" or a sequence of sounds represented by the three letters? Do you have another rhyming word that we can use to make sure?

17rolandperkins
Edited: Nov 22, 2015, 1:23 pm

. . . what weʻre rhyming with. . .? (16)

with the WORD "e r r". (8)

Sorry, I didnʻt know how to change the
title of this thread, so ". . .Malacca" in
the heading is wrong.

A four-sided equilateral shape?

(I'm assuming that you say "err" like "air" and not to rhyme with "her".)

19rolandperkins

It isnʻt usually thought of as having
a shape -- too many tangents and offshoots.
Itʻs of small dimension, (3 -dimensional of
course), and about of 1/10 or 1/12 human
height, and could be enclosed
in a rectangle OR a circle.

I'm confused about how this game works. I thought the response to #18 would be, "Crambo's word is not square." Does the host no longer attempt to guess the words suggested by the other players?

21rolandperkins

"the response would be Crambo! word
is not square". . . . . (18>20)

The host DOES still "ATTEMPT to guess the
words suggested by the other players", but
so far heʻs been failing to figure what
WAS the guess! (9, 11, 18, 15). I donʻt
know why I didnʻt get "Square" (18), but it
didnʻt come to mind at the time. Anyway, I
wasnʻt trying to change the rules.
The Crambo! word, b t w, IS a monosyllable
starting with s- .

Something extra, like a fifth tire?

23rolandperkins
Edited: Nov 28, 2015, 11:13 pm

An extra attached to part of
the body, not to a car. Come to think
of it the Crambo! word has three of
the same consonants as "a fifth tire"!

(If Iʻm right about what the guess is.)

24rolandperkins

NOT: square; spare

They look half lion and half human
A mere mythical illusion
Callous, and tricky
Play riddles daily
Now sit on Ancient ruins

as nobody is getting this, and
Iʻm not getting what the guesses
are, Iʻll close this one now by revealing
the Crambo! Word: itʻs "spur".

(This got off to a bad start, through
my own fault: I didnʻt know how to
get ..."rhymes with ʻSpurʻ " into the
heading, so it
remained "malacca".)
