I don't know what Shiritori is tbh.

Pair of Syllables = two syllables

ie: Matter - make a new word using one of those syllables eg. Terain or Mattress.

I would suggest if someone makes a spelling mistake or uses three syllables instead of two you just carry on as if they hadn't, otherwise the flow of the game gets lost.
Please feel free to start a new word game/quiz if you're not keen on this one - I only started it to put something in the empty section of the forum to start things off.

OK - carrying on from Bleakness

Sear = the sound of the first syllable of cereal.

I agree that it's rather confusing ............ ;)
