Seven Letters and Something You Eat
I have seven letters and am something you eat. My only anagram can help your pain. If you remove my first 2 letters I wear things down. Removing my first 3 letters is an adjective and removing my first 4 letters leaves a measure of time.
What am I?
Sausage. You eat sausage, assuage is the only single-word anagram and provides relief from pain. Usage wears things down, sage is an adjective and age is a measure of time.
Until I Am Measured
Until I am measured
I am not known,
Yet how you miss me
When I have flown.
Time.
Bird Flying Over the Ocean
When a bird flies over the ocean a part of the body touches the water but doesn’t get wet. What part is it?
The shadow
Who Is Silent In Parliament?
Who is silent in Parliament?
The letter i, which is the only silent letter in the word Parliament.
Up and Down and Round About
I’m up and down and round about,
yet all the world can’t find me out.
Though thousands have employed their leisure,
they never yet could find my measure.
I’m found in almost every garden,
In a compass or a farden.
There’s neither chariot coach nor mill
may move one inch except I will.
What am I?
A circle.
Rarely Touched, Often Held
I’m rarely touched but often held and if you’re wise you’ll use me well. What am I?
Your tongue.
