English-German Rebuses
By: Nikola Date: June 22, 2019, 12:37 pm
---------------------------------------------------------
I don't know if anyone here is into this. I just created four of
them. They require knowledge of English and some basic German
words. You will be guessing a German word by using English words
for what you see in the pictures. It's based on the English
spelling rather than pronunciation. Let me know if this doesn't
make sense :)
Good luck!

I could throw some words out but I‘m not sure what you are
looking for. Is the Barbie doll guy schwul or something? Help us
out Nikola!

First, think in English. What's in the picture? It's a bill.
BILL + IG = BILLIG (cheap in German).

Wow. So it is Burt who is tagged, not the hat as I supposed. So
it's birthday.
I wouldn't guess the ham. It's hard to notice the SCH is in fact
IN Barbie's fiancee :o
But I still have no idea what's hidden in the bar.

Yes, it was Burt's tag :) And ham is correct.
For the last one, you need to consider where the letter is
placed.
