  • i was looking up the word 'birdlime', and i found your channel again.

  • @Bregowald

    all roads lead to Rome

  • So, anything that rhymes would work? There aren't set words for certain words?

    Would this work?

    "Have a robin hood day" or "Have a robin hood tina fey" ?

  • @xxmusicplease

    You have understood exactly. And your examples are great.

    Note Robin Hood for good is already used.

    Many things have set phrases and I would not suggest using too many non standard ones together.

    It is through this invention that new standard phrases come into existence when a new rhyming phrase becomes popular.

    Note Robin Hood for good is already used.

  • @TheRichthoffen
