The answer is "What". In the fourth paragraph, "What " was written without question Mark just to tell us the name of the Ship. cheesy

What doesn't justify the answer because you have a question mark there.

The first WHAT is the name.
The second WHAT is the question.

Famous ship is the wrong answer.

Re: Our Last Born Gave Me This Tough Question. by mercy0008(f): 5:33pm On Dec 19, 2017
So I'm a resident in Ibadan for now and would love to visit some tourist attractions.
I heard about Erin Ijesha waterfall in Osun which is not sooooo far from Ibadan, such a trip will be boring alone.
Just need people who are resident in Ibadan and have an interest in local tourism, that are also interested in visiting Erin Ijesha to signify their interest. It could be a day trip or a one night trip.
It promises to be fun and pocket friendly since Ijesha i heard is not far away.
kindly send me a mail if interested so we can make plans and agree on a date.

"This famous ship" is the name of the ship.
Re: Our Last Born Gave Me This Tough Question. by Nobody: 6:06pm On Dec 19, 2017
The problem with all these new riddles is that they are not always well planned and as such more than one logical answer could apply.

In the above riddle, "this famous ship" and also "what" could be the name of the ship. The question mark being left out isn't enough though. . . I wonder those that come up with these sub par riddles sef undecided

Whoever created the riddle most be very proud now.

I respectfully disagree!

From an English grammar perspective.... If 'What' is the name of the ship according to the author...then, it's not stated or not hinted at all in the argument. It should have been stated this way... "What, is the name of the ship" with a comma at the end of 'what' and without a '?' at the end of the statement / argument. The question mark at the end of the argument begs the question.

In the statement, the author utilized 'What' as an 'adjective' which is commonly used to introduce a noun or a noun phrase.
So, for it to actually be the name of the ship, it should have been used as a noun as I depicted in my above argument. The comma after the 'what' is very imperative.

Again, on the lighter side... it's a riddle anyway! My answer to the riddle is "Famous" as the name of the Ship. wink

Thanks for the Sweet words.

Sincerely, the creator of the riddle did a good job. Although, he gave us different meaning to the Riddle due to the Punctuation marks.

Ooops. .... For a minute I thought I was in a Tutorial Class for English Language.

You have skilfully stated your point but I beg to disagree. In this Situation, our interpretative skill would have to do the Magic. Let me use your piont to counter your argument, you said "What" was used as an adjective to introduce Noun/Noun Phrase and of Such it does not fit into the Question. Sincerely, I accept this piont of view.

The only aspect I won't accept is the answer you gave. If "What" won't be accepted as the answer in this situation because it's an Adjective while should I accept "Famous" as the answer? Just try to interpret the Paragraph where famous was used. It was also used as an Adjective.

In this situation, there won't be a definite answer but I still believe The author solution would be "What" since he intentionally omitted "?"

You're absolutely right... undecided You got me on that. It boils down to individual scope-lens and perspective at which we chose to interpret it.

Again, riddles of this nature are more 'intuitive' in nature and are meant to provide the reader with more than one answer.
