Rider On Horseback Edges Off To Get Close

[PROCRASTINATOR]

FOUR LETTERS ENDING IN H

[Chandamama]

[k]NIGH[t]

[Baldric]

N(e)IGH

[Baldric]

^^edges off = minus E

[Svejk]

neigh baldrick

[PROCRASTINATOR]

BUT WHY NEIGH?

[Baldric]

Do you need the K back Svej ?

[Svejk]

nigh=get close

[Baldric]

Archaic for NEAR is NIGH,=NEIGH minus E ('E'dges off)

[glasman]

Chandamana has the correct answer.

[Chandamama]

Rider on horseback is kNIGHt
With both edges off, we get NIGH (get close)

[Baldric]

I would argue that based on Edges off!
;-)

[Baldric]

Bottom line is we both gave right answer

[Svejk]

where do you get neigh from baldrick?

[penelope2]

This was a clue in the DT recently and the answer was as Chandamama describes.

[Quizmonkey]

In what universe can EDGES equal E? And where did the neigh come from anyway? Hilarious

[Baldric]

Talk about pedantic!
Bottom line is we both gave right answer
Which I thought was the name of the game

[Mamyalynne]

No need for such pointed remarks QM, so a slight error in parsing was made - I do it all the time.

[Baldric]

Just had a look at qm's track record
did someone mention the 'H' word?
