2021 was a year to remember (but impossible to memorise). A new feature this year was the inclusion of a column for the original word (sometimes a phrase, sometimes a combination of two words – the “clever” ones combine two words with a one-letter change in each and a definition that alludes to both). This has been well received, and has even encouraged people to submit alternative definitions.
Congratulations to Mike Harcrow, who built on last year’s efforts with a prodigious output and was the unanimous winner for 2021. 1,501 words of Mike’s words were published, of which 273 received one or more votes – a testament to the quality and originality of his dalliance with WPMI. A selection of the best has been included in a dedicated category of of “Harcrow’s Finest”. Other categories are “Best of the Rest”, “Ringers” (words which don’t comply with the one-letter change, but were deemed clever enough for publication and “Covid”.
A case could have been made for including a category for “Punslinging”, with all our regular contributors either redefining each other’s names, or finding ingenious new words that had “pun” somewhere in the one-letter change. Try a search for “pun” to find them all.
