RHYME TIME
This puzzle is called “rhyme time” because the solver is asked solve clues that will yield either a phrase or a word that rhymes. For example if the clue was “weak,” the answer would be “namby pamby” and if the clue was “bull” the answer would be “toro.” This game is sometimes called “inky pinky” and a usual proviso is that the clues should be both clear and concise. In this puzzle I'll go one better and only use clues that are one word or refer to a single person or character. Many of the answers here are reduplicated compounds, single words where the second part of the word rhymes with the first part. Therefore, if the clue read “eighty,” the answer would be “four score.” As an aid, the answers will be arranged in alphabetical order. So, the answer to the first question “cockpit” is “ace place.”

I'd say "four score" for eighty.
ReplyDeleteThanks. I meant to put "four score"" as the answer but repeated the word "eighty."
