Re: Pictionary
 

That's the translation literally yes Scouser. But I don't know if you actually had a game like that on TV as we did in Holland and if so what it was called.
Of course, like Hel said, Wiki maybe could tell, but I'm too darn tired.
Gonna call it quits and get an early night's sleep. :sleep: night, night :wave:

Re: Pictionary
 

I don't ever remember this kind of program on UK television:no: Good night celli.

Re: Pictionary
 

The original was an American show which was on in various formats in every decade from the 1950s until a few years ago; same thing for the German version. I found references on the web for a similar show in Britain with 6 contestants, but I do not know if that has the same "format" that is important for this pictionary.

Re: Pictionary
 

Is it the kind of show where one is telling the truth and a panel have to decide which one ?

Re: Pictionary
 

Yes. There are some catchphrases too...

Re: Pictionary
 

Finding lots of book titles "Tell The Truth", "Stand up and Tell the Truth," but no reference to love and smiles (happiness in hebrew) !!! This is a long shot, has it got anything to do with David Icke ????? or the bible ?

Re: Pictionary
 

No, nothing to do with David Icke, and only indirectly with the bible, like all the authors works ;). Happy(ness) in Hebrew is correct, but you need to use that more literally.
Maybe this version will help?

Re: Pictionary
 

"Love And Joy: Law, Language, And Religion In Ancient Israel" - Yochanan Muffs ? but no reference to telling the truth !:thinking:

Re: Pictionary
 

No, it's fiction and by a quite well known author.

Re: Pictionary
 

Something to do with "Will the real ?????? stand up"?:doubt:

Re: Pictionary
 

50% chance, and that was the wrong one :lol:!

[edit] Here's the British version, by the way ;).

Re: Pictionary
 

I'm just going round in circles:insane2:

Re: Pictionary
 

:doubt: I have to say I'm quite stunned too :nodder:

:thinking: Not sure how you can take "happy(ness)" more literally :lol: Maybe it should rather be smiling or smiley?
The second word is the letters kaph+lamed, pronounced "kol" which I find to mean "all, the whole" - but I think I mistranslate that, my Hebrew is quite nonexistent :lol: It's not Ahava (love), but maybe it's the word "leb" (heart) :doubt: :dizzy: I think I'll wait till Dor can shed some light on all this :rotfl:

Edit As for the 50% chance... maybe it isn't truth and "real" which is important for the book, but rather the lying and "imposter" side of the game?

Re: Pictionary
 

What I meant was "Happy(ness) in Hebrew" more literally ;).
You're close with the second one, but I suppose there are always some variations in transcribing words.

Go back to the game first, and look at my second version of the pic...

Re: Pictionary
 

Re: Pictionary
 

Even if you are on the wrong track, I think you deserve to win this one because of all the effort you have brought into finding those words, iTS :hmmmthumb
I am getting absolutely nowhere with this one.

Re: Pictionary
 

The title has 5 words, and SF has found four of them already: 1, 2, 3 and 5, so yes, I guess she deserves to win :). The book is written by a quite well known Jewish American author and rabbi.

I would have thought the "wie van de drie/tell the truth" clue would have been enough, but then he is one of my favourites so half a title would have been enough for me (but not, obviously, for everybody, though it should be enough for a "book" search :lol9:)....
The Hebrew clues were more of an extra, but, as SF did, you could find "heart' with a bit of work. The other word is harder to translate, but usually given as happy/blessed, at least from what I have found.

Re: Pictionary
 

Found it! :arms:

My Name Is Asher Lev - Chaim Potok

I read it in high school :redface: :wall:

Edit Here's the new pictionary A SONG of course

Re: Pictionary
 

That was it :thumbsup:!

Of course, both Wie van de drie, To Tell The Truth and even the UK version I found later, see earlier clip, always started with "My name is...my name is...my name is...". That and the finish "Will the real .... now rise" are the associations I have with the game ;).
Asher and Lev were included so you check if you perhaps had found another "My name is.." title.

Every book by Chaim Potok is well worth reading by the way.

Your well deserved turn next :jossun:

Re: Pictionary
 

Well seeing I've never seen the show, I wouldn't have a blinking clue as to what they say:no:
....and hats off to itS for getting that !!!!


Parallel Lines by Blondie or Joss Stone comes to mind, but no reference to the g.....

Re: Pictionary
 

parallelogram.? as its near halloween..grateful dead

Re: Pictionary
 

Ooooh good guess vivi.

Re: Pictionary
 

Re: Pictionary
 

But you had the clip and the wiki page ;)

That would make it Absolute Gravity by Snow Patrol :lol:

Re: Pictionary
 

im crying now.. thought it was maths physics based..obviously more advanced than a gram:no:

Re: Pictionary
 

Re: Pictionary
 

Nice and elegant pictionary ;).

I have two:

First, as an intermezzo and to celebrate an upcoming jubilee:

television

For Dutch language speakers only really (though long time pictionary players and lurkers might recognize it as well :)), so bonus points only for the above.


Then, for everybody, not just a song but a whole (-/- two tracks ;))

album



Album name and artist please ;).

Re: Pictionary
 

I'm going for the Bonus points.
Op een onbewoond eiland, Kinderen voor Kinderen. This year 30 years young.

Re: Pictionary
 

:thumbsup: :lol:
Two more bonus points on offer for the other two songs ;)

Re: Pictionary
 

I think one of the other songs is Ik heb zo waanzinnig gedroomd, but don't know the second one.

Re: Pictionary
 

Errrrm are these the new rules now:thinking: !!!! posting two pictionaries ? Not getting into this one because I'm not in agreement with posting more than one at a time, it will end up going from 2 to 3 and so on.

Re: Pictionary
 

Aw Scouser, lighten up ;). The album is the real pictionary, the other one is just a little joke because of Kinderen voor Kinderen's jubilee and the fun that we had here in april with it (see post #3655 and following).

Re: Pictionary
 

:confused:I've only just began to forgive you over the "Happy Birthday To Me" saga, and now this !:misbas:

Re: Pictionary
 

Re: Pictionary
 

the only thing i can think of is manchild can't get the other things to spark any ideas

Re: Pictionary
 

Haha, I didn't know the song (I suppose it is one of the newer ones), but I remember you mentioning it (and your friends!) before, so I had to include it...besides, Elize was one of the guests at DWDD yesterday, where they discussed the special show next saturday.

Each item stands for one song on the album; the album title is the same as one of the songs.

No correct guesses yet though ;)

Re: Pictionary
 

still trying to get somewhere with this- being looking at "the morning after the night before"- but no other tracks match :(

Re: Pictionary
 

Now that the Kinderen voor Kinderen 30 year jubilee broadcast is over, it's time for the 'real' pic again :lol:!

"the morning after the night before" is a very well known feeling caused by what's drunk during "one of the songs" ;).

Hint: This album is actually the first one I looked up while searching for SF's previous pictionary....

Re: Pictionary
 

Re: Pictionary
 

You are a lot further than you know ;)

- one songtitle identified...
- Romeo as baby is correct, but Juliet is not sleeping...
- maybe they are shotglasses, but there is no alcohol in them...
- thinking in another 'time scale' should almost guarantee you to find the answer..

A slightly altered version may help:


Or, you might focus on the similarities between your pic and mine, rather than the differences ;)

Re: Pictionary
 

:thinking:

- one songtitle identified... :cheer: I bet it's the light!
- Romeo as baby is correct, but Juliet is not sleeping... Spinning? Or singing? :doubt: I'm pretty sure it was Romeo singing in the Dire Straits song :nod:
- maybe they are shotglasses, but there is no alcohol in them... Just alcohol with a colour :tongue:
- thinking in another 'time scale' should almost guarantee you to find the answer.. 17h it is! Not that it rings a bell for a song, but that's why we have google ;) Though of course it can be the song "17" or "17 forever" ...

Or, you might focus on the similarities between your pic and mine, rather than the differences ;) :confused: are there similarities? Do I have to think scientifically to solve this one? :confused:

I found an album :arms: And now it all makes sense :cheer:
