THE REBUS
The Rebus Puzzles are a mind titillating, amusing invention. They are usually images often made of letters, words, images or a combination of them to make a cryptic representation of a hidden message. Here are a few examples:
HIJKLMNO
These 8 letters probably seem to mean nothing at first glance, but think differently! We have the letters H to the letter O, so H to O or H2O. This is a Rebus representation of H2O or water. Here is another example:
Yourself!
Yourself!
    C      Yourself!
Yourself!
We have the letter C and 4 times the word 'Yourself". So the answer is C 4 Yourself or 'see for yourself'.
And here is our last example:
         R
         O
    ROADS
         D
         S
We have the words 'Roads' crossing each other which would translate as 'Crossroads'.
I hope this will have stirred some interest in you discovering more of the world of Rebus Puzzles!
