RSQ 37 dark side of the moon

[moonandback]

travesty = farce but you need to put an a in front of travesty for a sentance to make sense ie

the service was farcical

the service was travesty / a travesty  

objection overuled

[Claw75]

rich, how can a noun be a synonym for an adjective?

A farce is farcical. Synonyms for both are interchangeable imo


Feel very strongly about this, in fact having expected it all day since Mr Back's unwarranted barb I have been stewing on the subject and would feel very hard done by if this is indeed a fail

at least you've had time to prepare.  i never for a second thought i was gonna fail this one and it's come as a very big shock.  i have had to have a cigarette and some chocolate to calm me down.

[gatso]

give a sentence in which the words farcical and travesty are interchangeable without the insertion of an article

JK's golf answer should be accepted

[TightEnd]

give a sentence in which the words farcical and travesty are interchangeable without the insertion of an article

and you can sod off too. If I ever get to do one of these again I am failing on spelling, lack of insertion of articles and you on every question just out of spite

Ridiculous fail

[Cf]

This is surely further proof that my answer is an ace?

[Claw75]

and mine.

glad gatso knows about grammar, i just know travesty is wrong, agree about shambolic but could'nt find it in the thesuari i was using to adjudicate the question

[ForthThistle]

Ridiculous fail

the chances of me playing if you ever do one again are zero anyway so whatever

[gatso]

glad gatso knows about grammar, i just know travesty is wrong, agree about shambolic but could'nt find it in the thesuari i was using to adjudicate the question

so how are you ruling on shambolic? it's clearly correct

[moonandback]

to cf and claw you both gave examples of things that are farcical not words that can be interchanged for farcical

with that i shall move on. unless gatso can find me proof for shambolic
