a Chemist friend of mine used to assign his pupils the task of making up words using the symbols from a periodic table, we`ve sat for ages playing this between us over a beer or 7, I thought I`de share some of the fun

 

the task is to either A: make the largest word you can with them, or B: make the longest coherant sentence using them.

 

this then can be split into 2 parts, 1: you can use the same symbol twice, or 2: you can only use them once!

 

enjoy

 

oh yeah, so far my best is "FrAcTiONAl" and "CrYSTaLiNe"

what`s up with everyone, it isn`t TOO difficult is it?

 

here`s another I came up with: "I Am At TeNTh PoSiTiON In LiNe"

 

also there`s "LaSEr BeAm" and "LaDy" as well as "BaCON"

 

 

see? Not so hard afterall

"CaN ThOU BeAr ThAt BaRb In ThY BaCK?"

 

Longest sentence I found so far

"LaCeRaTiONS"

Wow, well done you pair, I`m Impressed!

"CaN ThOU BeAr ThAt BaRb In ThY BaCK?"

MoTiVAtIONaL... that's one letter shorter though.

 

Aha, now I remembered "-PHoBiAc".

 

How about ORnIThOPHoBiAc? Meaning someone who's afraid of birds.

That is a super fun way to play scrabble. This forum is full of fun stuff to play with. I have found another place that's cool too. Have you guys ever tried playing brain games? Not as challenging as a few of the problems here but I have read studies that place like that and this forum are good for keeping your brain fit.
