The 2nd PM succeeded the 1st PM

How come u win ALL the time???LOL

Language Study : The key is the word "succeed". It has 2 meanings:
1) to surpass or win somebody;
2) to follow someone as the next person

So who came after the 1st Prime Minister of Australia?

The 2nd Prime Minister!

why is this a riddle at all?

naughtybaby · 发表于 18-6-2008 13:32:50

Good qustion

Well, the reason for them being termed as RIDDLES is because that in general, these are Questions of GUESSING games in form of ordinary riddles, though they may actually appear like tricky-tricks

I intended to encourage more ppl to get to know some of the English usages through a fun way, and that's why I pointed out "language study" each and every time

Language Study:

The word "diamond" includes the following meanings :
1) Girl's BEST friend

---An extremely hard glittering jewelry~
2) A red, lozenge-shaped figure on certain playing cards.
...

Therefore U can ALWAYS see diamonds in playing cards etc~
