Protocol for throwing

Gather words related to the relevant word, write them on post-its and stick them onto a dart board, whichever word receives the most darts becomes the core of its definition

Protocol for numbers

Collect a series of numbers related to the word:

Number of letters
Number of syllables
Number of points in scrabble
Number of times used in the text
Number of

Protocol for pronunciation

Find the word on https://getyarn.io/ If you cannot find word, break it up into its phonetic. e.g.Proto calls

Protocol for mispronunciation

Find a way to mispronounce a word by changing the enunciation, and use that as a definition.

   Thesis - The Sis - Casual way to refer to a female direct relative or close friend

Protocol for Greek

Find the closest word in Greek for the English word.

   Thesis: Place you sit/stand on.

   Protocol: First Arse

Protocol for Random Language

Similar to Greek but for anyones native language. When a word is selected, someone from the group says "Oh, that comes from my language!" and then have to come up with an etymology from their native language.

Protocol for Context

Think of all the contexts in which a word could be used, define as many as possible as if they are separate words.

Protocol for Town Hall

A bell sits in the room, whenever someone doesn't know the definition of a word they have to ring the bell and call a meeting. Here everyone assembles without preparation to figure out a definition for the word without looking up anything. Meeting ends when bell ringer understands. Definition is canon.

Protocol for Salem

[Can be used in conjunction with Protocol for Town Hall] Everyone sits in a circle and a word is called. Clockwise the participants say what they believe the definition of the word is. If someone sounds too close to an actual definition they can be declared the 'witch' and have to leave the circle for the next word (burning is optional). Their definition becomes canon and a new word is called.

Protocol for Abbreviation

The definition of a word has to consist of words made up of the word's letters. Examples:

   Glossary - Great lovely overly simplified sentences and rare yore

   Thesis - The hypothetically empirical song in science

Protocol for Preschool

Define a word using only preschool words (https://www.tprteaching.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/09/dolch-sight-words-poster-preschool.pdf)

   Definition of Dolch Words: A little look, help you red

Protocol for Auto-completion

Write "The definition of [word] is" on your phone, and then press autocomplete until it becomes a finished sentence.

  Example: thesis Is the best way to get the copies of the year and the deadline is to be honest I don't think so but I will be there for the weekend.

Protocol for Hieroglyphics

Come up with a series of emojis to define a word.
