The question is mystifying, misleading, or puzzling, posed as a problem to be solved or guessed, something difficult to understand. The answer is surprising but clever. At the same time, a riddle is a kind of definition or description whose referent must be guessed” (Sherzer 2002) | Sherzer Do 20th say serma re gozhon TeTD pahata kHon kuDum reyag pa.rsi, saTam, eman ko iDikaTe, a.diDhaw e ToTbic akaDa | kuDum reyag gaban DHara, kuDum Teyarog hora, kuDum reyag bewhar eman ko iDikaTe galoc akaDay | kuDum iDikaTe ayma carca huyakana, jeleka onareyag lakcar pahata, pa.na.rsi pahata, ona savTe kuDum reyag pa.na.rsi ceD huyug-a ona iDikaTe moT ko soDor akana |
