Brain Exercise Riddles: Find The Third Word Connected to The Pair of Words

by

Here is a brain exercise whose aim is to stimulate the connections or associations between words in your temporal lobe.


In the left column you have a pair of words.

Your goal is to find a third word that is connected or associated with both of these two words.

The first pair is PIANO and LOCK.

The answer is KEY. The word key is con­nected with both the word piano and the word lock: there are KEYS on a piano and you use a KEY to lock doors.

Key is what is called a homo­graph: a word that has more than one mean­ing but is always spelled the same.

Ready to stim­u­late con­nec­tions in your tem­po­ral lobe(s)?
