Two truths and a lie... Which is which?

[Amy10223]

You pick out the lie among these 3 statements about myself and then you do the same:

1. I can touch my nose with my tongue.

2. I am currently learning both Chinese and Japanese.

3. I had a cat that lasted for 24 years.

I made a mistake and there is ONE truth here among the statements.

[letuswaltzforthedead]

I'm guessing number 2 for you.

1. I'm usually really risk adverse and I would hate to break a bone or anything of that sort

2. People who are always late or interrupting are some of my biggest pet peeves.

3. I've had nearly 30 pets in my life so far.

[Amy10223]

You are correct! Being you answeree correctly before anyone else, you get the Best response, if I could only see where it is!
I will guess your truth is #2.

[letuswaltzforthedead]

It's not number two, I dont know if you want to continue or if you rather I tell you. How has your language learning journey been for you so far? I remember you had mentioned it before but I had forgotten which language.

[Amy10223]

OK, you can either wait for others to answer your own question or tell me here, your choice. As for me, it's going fine. I've been studying Chinese for over a year now and I've learned many words and phrases, sentences, etc. But the pronunciation is harder for me than it is for Japanese, which I started in September. Thuis far, I'm abole to recognize most of the Hiragana characters (consonant and vowel combinations) and the pronunciation is much easier than Chinese is to master, being Japanese is a more phonetic language. It was an online course that I took and the last class was last night--however the Jap II course will begin next year in Jan and I will be taking that as well. I do this so that I can visit Japan in the future and be able to communicate, to keep my brain healthy, and to speak to my friend as well. :)

The truth is your old cat



I have a knife collection
I have exactly 200lbs of rice on my property
I've been to prison 3 times

[Agape93]

3 times to visit someone*

Hit send too early lol

[Amy10223]

I will wait for a few more people to answer for mine. :)

[Amy10223]

My truth is #2 (Chinese and Japanese). My oldest daughter can do the nose thing with her tongue, and my sister had a cat that lived until she was 23, not 24.

[AviatorTom]

#2 is the truth

Here are 3 statements for me, only one is true

1. I can touch the ceiling in my kitchen

2. In Paris, I can ask for directions to the Eiffel Tower speaking only French

3. My car is a hybrid

[Amy10223]

Correct-- #2, I am currently learning both Chinese and Japanese. However--my sister did have a cat that lasted for 23, not 24 years. That's still incredible. I had one cat, a Siamese named Natasha, who lasted for 21 years. :). This was fun and I'll answer yours now.
I will go with #1 is true for your statements.

[AviatorTom]

@Amy10223 Good guess but incorrect. My kitchen ceiling slopes upward from 8 feet to about 15 feet on its way up to 23 feet high in the great room; I would have to jump to maybe touch it, which I can't.

#2 is the correct one. I studied French for 4 years in high school and worked for an American company that is French-owned for several years. Whenever the French would visit our offices, they would talk to each other in French, thinking that we Americans wouldn't understand what they were saying in secret. It took them several months to realize that I understood them... after that, whenever they wanted to talk to each other in private, they made sure it was far away from me.

[Amy10223]

I took French for 7 years in school, but can remember only simple things. So I'm guess that you ask for directions to the Eiffel Tower by asking, "Si'l vous plait, ou est le Tower d'Eiffel? " or, " S'il vous plait, pouvez-vous me directee a le "Effiel Tower"?

[AviatorTom]

Tres bien... something like that

[SnowedIn]

Your one truth: learning Chinese and Japanese.

Mine:
1. I have three brothers.
2. I have a black velvet top hat.
3. I have been to 6 of the 7 continents.

[Amy10223]

#2 is correct! However--my sister did have a cat that lasted for 23, not 24 years. That's still incredible. I had one cat, a Siamese named Natasha, who lasted for 21 years. :). This was fun and I'll answer yours now.

[Amy10223]

I willsay that you have been to 6 of the seven continents is true.

[SnowedIn]

Well played @Amy10223! I have two brothers and although I'd like a black velvet top hat, that would require the requisite evening wear to go with it, and that's just a thing. :) I do have a fedora, so there's that.

[Amy10223]

Yay!

[HippieVeganJewslim]

Is the first one the lie?
I’ve been to St Petersburg, I’ve been to Puerto Plata, and I’ve been to Santo Domingo.

[Amy10223]

#2 is correct (Chinese and Japanese). My answer for yours is: I've been to Santo Domingo (The Dominican Republic).

[HippieVeganJewslim]

I’ve actually never been to St Petersburg, just to Moscow and a nearby village, in Russia. I have been to DR several times as a kid. First time to Santo Domingo and the rest of the times to Puerto Plata.

[nawtee_me]

I would say 3 since you did not say it was cat years or not...

[SaoirseS]

I'm going with #3.

[Amy10223]

Truth is #2, (Chinese and Japanese). My oldest can do #1, and my sister had an old cart who lived until she was 23 (not 24). I had one that lived until she was 21.

[exitseven]

I bet you cannot touch your tongue with your nose.

[Amy10223]

The truth was #2

[loveslongnails]

#3 long life cat

[Amy10223]

#2 was my truth.

[htmndg183]

1 is the truth im guessing.

[Amy10223]

#2 is the truth (Chinese and Japanese). Where are your own statements? One truth and two lies.

[Amy10223]

#2 is mine. Can you name some things as well?

[Asker2022]

Cats can’t live that long.

[Heolurt]

The truth is #2.
