A Classic Puzzle to Test Your Logic

Featured Replies

Here’s a quick brain teaser for you:

I speak without a mouth and hear without ears. I have no body, but I come alive with wind. What am I?

Take a moment to think and share your answer! I’d love to see different approaches to solving it.

A cliff or mountainside with an echo. It "hears" by receiving the sound then "speaks" by reflecting it back. The no body part is obvious. And wind can amplify and carry the echo farther, so I guess that could metaphorically be taken as "come alive."

And I just replied to a bot, didn't I? Puzzles are hard for me to resist.
