Sometimes in the magazine there is a riddle with pictures, letters and numbers, as well as punctuation and equal signs. This is a puzzle. Compared to crosswords or crossword puzzles, not many people can guess this riddle. The question arises: "What do the commas in puzzles mean?" The difficulty is that the decision rules are never printed. And if there is a certain instruction, then it will most likely be incomplete. But in fact, everything is not so difficult.
What is a rebus
The Latin word rebus means "things". catchphrase"not with the help of words, but with the help of things" very accurately describes the parlor game of words. For the first time, it became known in France, when a collection of these riddles was published. Its compiler is E. Tamburo. The first puzzles did not differ in a wide palette of guessing tools, but in subsequent years they were significantly enriched with various techniques.
Since then, musical, literary, mathematical and theatrical puzzles have appeared. The principle is the same for everyone: an encrypted concept is composed in parts from several other words, which are represented by pictures or pantomime. In the board game of puzzles, there are commas that are interspersed with images.
There are certain principles by which encryption is written. To solve the riddle, you should know what the commas mean.
Puzzles have their own laws
In short, commas denote letters that need to be removed from a word. They can stand on one or the other side of the picture. Since the text is read from left to right, the presence of a comma before the image means that the first letter is removed. A comma after it indicates that the last letter is not taken into account. There may be several characters. In this case, several letters are excluded from the word encrypted with the image.
What does the comma at the top of the picture mean? Another rule says that the rebus is read from top to bottom. So we discard initial letter. By analogy, it is already clear what the comma in the rebus below means - discarding the final letter.
There are also inverted signs. This means that letters from the end of the word are discarded. When inverted drawings are encountered, the word is read backwards. If the picture also contains a comma drawn upside down, then the final letter is removed from the word read backwards.
For example, under the image of a cow there are two inverted commas. Under them is a lion, and under the lion the letter is "A". Solution: first, remove the last two letters from the word "cow", we get "koro". Now add "left". The word "queen" is obtained.
Multiple commas
Sometimes there are not one, but two commas in the rebus. What does this cipher mean? Some people think it's quotation marks. However, it is not.
For example, you need to guess the following riddle: there are two commas before the picture of an elephant on the left. Words are read from left to right, which means that the first two letters will be removed. If you subtract the first two letters from the word "elephant", you get "he".
Another option: before the picture of the elephant on the left is the syllable "mu". After the picture on the right are two commas and the letter "and". Solution: subtract the last two letters from the word "elephant", it turns out "sl". We add "mu" to the beginning, and "and" to the end, we get the word "muesli".
But what if you need to make a rebus yourself? Suppose you need to choose an encryption for the syllable "he". Of course you can use different ways. But if you remember what the commas in puzzles mean, then everything will become easy. In Russian, there are enough words consisting of several syllables. To get the one you need, you don't have to worry about inventing items. And for example, take a picture with a gramophone and put nine commas on the left. The task is complicated by the fact that you first need to guess which word is encrypted by the picture. Perhaps not everyone knows what a gramophone is.
A picture with a chameleon and six commas on the left can also be imagined as a rebus.
What does the comma at the top of the picture mean?
This means that it is necessary to discard the first letter of the word, since the rule for reading rebuses always applies: from left to right and from top to bottom. For example, there is a rebus consisting of two pictures - a bucket and a book. Above both pictures are three regular non-inverted commas. The solution is this: we subtract the first three letters from the words "bucket" and "book". We get "ro" and "ha", that is, "horns".
Another example: a drawing of a snake with a comma above it. There is an indication: "i" = "l". The solution will be this: we subtract the first letter from the word "snake", it turns out "meya". Now we change the letter "i" to "l". It turns out "chalk".
Examples with a chameleon or a gramophone, which were discussed above, could be written as follows: above the picture with the image of the word put right amount commas to take them away from the words "gramophone" and "chameleon".
When the signs are under the picture
It happens that commas are at the top or bottom of the picture. What does the comma below mean in the rebus? Don't let that bother you. When reading from top to bottom, the comma above the picture shows that the first letter of the encoded word is discarded. And the one below the image indicates the latter. If there are several commas, several letters are removed.
Let's say we have an image of a hammer. There is an indication: "t" = "k". This means that the letter "t" should be replaced by "k". There is a comma below the picture. Solution: we replace the letter, we get the word "milk". We remove the last - "milk" comes out.
Inverted punctuation mark
Sometimes there is an inverted comma in puzzles, what does the removal of the last letter mean in this case? To complicate the task, this sign, standing upside down, may not be at the end or at the bottom of the picture. If the rebus is made up of several images, each of which is supplemented with commas, the following principle will help not to get confused.
If there is an ordinary comma, then the letters at the beginning of the word are removed, and if it is inverted, then the letters from the end of the word are removed. In the case of encryption of a word from several pictures and commas, ordinary commas will appear before each picture, and after - inverted ones. Thus the parts of the puzzle are separated. No matter how many commas stand between the drawings, by their position one can understand where the cipher of the previous syllable ends and the encryption of the next one begins.
For example, there are two images: raspberries and an umbrella. There are two regular commas before the raspberry, then two inverted ones. After the umbrella is another upside down. There is an indication: "z" = "m". We decide in order. The whole rebus is written in a line, which means we read from left to right. We take away from the word "raspberry" two letters at the beginning and two at the end, it turns out "whether". This is the first syllable. Now at the word "umbrella" we change the letter "z" to "t", it turns out "mont". We delete the last letter and get "mon". This is the second syllable, and all together it will be "lemon".
Vertical puzzles
There are also vertical riddles, where there are punctuation marks between the pictures. What do the commas in puzzles mean if they are located one above the other? Some of them, if written on a line, take up too much space. Let's say one picture shows a field, the other shows a road. After the field there are two inverted commas, before the road - two more, but already ordinary, and after the road one inverted. This puzzle will not fit on the page, but it cannot be transferred. What to do?
The method of writing the rebus from top to bottom will help out, in which the pictures will be placed one above the other. Under the one with the field, we put two inverted commas, above the road - two ordinary ones, and under the road - inverted. We solve the rebus: we subtract the last two letters from the word "field", we get "by". This is the first syllable. We subtract the first two and one last letters from the word "road". We get the "horn". This is the second syllable. Together - the "threshold".
How to make a beautiful rebus with commas
To record the rebus gracefully, do not stretch it too long or high. For example, you can use this method: take the middle part of the word and find a picture for it. Let it be a syllable that is easy to find in other words. Cutting off extra letters with commas from above and below, we get the desired syllable. Now you just need to add the missing letters before the picture and after it, and the work is ready.
Example: you need to encrypt the word "deer". First, we choose the middle syllable, which we will represent with a picture. AT this case it is easier to choose the syllable "le". It is part of many words, but for beauty we will choose "beehive". It is square, it is easy to place it in the middle of the sheet. We put commas at the top and bottom of the picture with the beehive. Above - normal, below - inverted. So we designate the syllable "le". Now on the left in front of the picture we put the letter "o", and after - the letters "n" and "b". All together - "deer".
Try to play this board game. It develops logic and increases vocabulary. After a while, you will notice that you have become better at understanding the composition of words.
Rebus is an exciting puzzle game that develops ingenuity, logic and the ability to find the unusual in a picture. These puzzles will be of interest to both adults and children, as some of them are very high level difficulties. They are used in schools to teach a child to quickly use data, process it and arrange it in the right position. Often the rebus of letters or words has several spellings and you need to choose the most appropriate sound, which allows you to develop memory and vocabulary. Only the child who has enough words in his memory so that he can recognize and understand them can take up the solution of puzzles. Simpler tasks are given to children from the second grade, when they already know the alphabet and numbers well, baby younger age just don't understand how to solve it. You need to start with picture tasks, they are considered simpler, letter puzzles and note puzzles will be more difficult. They will only be possible for a child with special knowledge.
Rebuses have a rich history, they appeared even before writing. After all, it was with the help of pictures that ancient people tried to convey to others the meaning of some events. Nowadays, puzzles are used as entertainment and a game that will captivate the whole family. In order to solve them, you need to remember a number of rules in order to understand what is read and in what order.
What can be a rebus?
A rebus is a picture that can be depicted:
- letters;
- numbers;
- arrows;
- Pictures;
- fractions;
- notes;
- commas and dots.
They can be upside down, be in each other and different position on the picture. All such puzzles are divided by difficulty level. The simplest ones can be read very easily, for example - "Bumblebee" and "Table":
More complex pictures will have to think about.
And there are those for which you will have to be patient with a pen and paper.
But for all of them there is certain rules on which puzzles are solved. If you figure it out, even the most complex proverb puzzles will succumb and become understandable.
How to read a rebus?
The rebus itself is a whole picture, before you start solving it, you need to understand if special rules for reading it. If they are not, then the words or phrases are read as usual, from left to right, but if they are, then this must be taken into account. There are two main characters:
Arrows from right to left indicate that a word or several words should be read the other way around: from right to left.
Rebus solving rules
The image itself includes letters, numbers and pictures that must be read and combined in a certain order. Therefore, they look not only at what is drawn, but also how it is done. If there is a picture in the rebus, they select a word that matches it, here you need to turn on the imagination and remember that sometimes it can be a jar, and sometimes what lies in it. All other elements are "read" in order, subject to some rules:
Numbers, signs and commas
Very often, the image is accompanied by commas, equal signs, minus signs, or a row of numbers. This tells you what to do with the letters that make up the word. All actions can be considered from the pictures below, on which a “flower” is drawn, which must be turned into a “current”.
If there are commas near the picture, you need to see where they are and count them. When they stand before a word, the first letters are subtracted, if after it, then the last, in the amount that there are commas.
Sometimes crossed out letters are written near the picture, this indicates that they should be removed from the word.
And when “=”, “+” or “-” stand side by side and additional letters or a picture, this indicates that you need to do this action with the word. Add letters either before the word or at the end. But sometimes "+" or "-" indicates that you need to add "to" or "from". This must always be remembered.
The numbers next to the word indicate in what order and what letters to take.
Large numbers and signs
Large numbers and signs drawn in a rebus the size of the main pictures are perceived as a word or action. When they are, they are added to the word different letters or syllables.
- a large "+" indicates that you need to add "to", "s" or "and";
- a large "-" indicates that you need to add "from";
- the number adds those letters that are in the word that means it.
For example, there are three pictures above: P + C = rice, ok-mol = hammer, 100l = table.
How to solve puzzles from letters?
Sometimes the rebus consists of only letters that are drawn in different form and position. These include the same decision rules:
- if the letter is drawn in the letter, then it is added: "in";
- if the letter is above the letter, it is added: “above” or “on”;
- if the letter is under the letter, “under” will be added;
- if letters are drawn from letters, this should be indicated by adding "from".
For example:
In the letter “O” we have “rona” written, that is, it must be read as “crow”.
The letters "C", "D" and "T" took hold of the handles together, so the letter "and" is added between them - and we get the word "sitting".
This suggests that you need to add "on" to the sentence.
The letters “TKE” sit in the letter “E”, that is, it is read as “in + e + tke” - “branch”.
It remains only to connect all the words and get: the crow is sitting on a branch. Letter puzzles allow you to develop your imagination well and learn how to quickly compose words.
How to solve puzzles with notes
Rebuses with notes are designed for those children who are engaged in music and it is not difficult for them to determine which note is drawn in the picture. To unravel, take seven notes and use their names.
this is the note "do" and "m", read as "house".
And this is “fa” and “salt”, that is, “beans”.
Such puzzles help to quickly remember how notes are written and quickly, subconsciously use them.
How to solve complex puzzles from pictures, letters and numbers?
Puzzles are divided according to the level of difficulty. They mean not only words, but also phrases. If the picture seems too complicated, do not be shy to take a pen and paper and break it down into its components. When you need to guess not one word, but a proverb or a well-known phrase, the author usually writes about it. Take, for example, the puzzle:
and try to figure it out. We remember that rebuses are read from left to right like words in a book, if there are no additional icons, and there are none in this rebus, then it’s worth starting on the right.
The letters “la” move out from the letter “E”, that is, the whole picture must be read as “c + e + la”, oh, we get the first part: “village”
here we see that the letters “ha” are holding the letter “m” in their hands and we get the following combination “m + y + ha”. Of course, you can still read "u + ha + m", but, in my opinion, the fly is still better.
This is a big jar delicious jam, since there are no commas, numbers or signs next to it, this indicates that the whole word must be used in its entirety, without changes.
And this indicates what is being added - “on” or “above”. In our case, “on” is more suitable.
As a result of the fact that the complex picture was decomposed into simple elements, we got a simple rebus of the words: village + fly + jam + on. As a result, we get the phrase: "A fly sat down on jam."
In each case, it is worth turning on the imagination and learning how to quickly use the rules - and then complex puzzles will not be so difficult. The main thing is to always be careful and not lose any elements.

These are the basic rules that will help you learn how to solve puzzles. They are shown in the next short cartoon, and are also discussed in more detail below in the text.
Examples of puzzles increase when clicked.
1. Picture, geometric figure, a number or a musical note means that in order to solve it, you need to read the name of what is depicted. For example, the number "100" together with the letter "L" turns into "TABLE", the note "SI" with the addition of the syllable "LA" gives us the word "POWER", and the figure "Rhombus" with the last letter taken away and the letter "G" standing in front "turns into the word" thunder ":

How to solve puzzles. The rebus is read as SI (note) + LA. You can guess how POWER. Rebus-2
How to solve puzzles. The rebus reads like G + ROM (a rhombus figure without the last letter). You can guess like THUNDER. Rebus-3
2. A comma means that you need to remove the extreme letter (at the beginning or at the end) from the picture, next to which there is a comma. Two commas mean the removal of two letters. The direction of the tail of the comma points towards the picture from which the letter must be subtracted. Rebuses containing an element with large quantity commas are undesirable because they smear the meaning of the element used. Below is an example where the word "FENCE" with the subtraction of the first two letters, is unraveled as "BOR" - a coniferous forest:

3. A crossed-out letter or number above the child's picture means that in order to solve this word, this letter or the letter with the indicated number is removed, and in some cases they are changed to another letter. For example, the word "KIT" turns into the word "CAT", "TABLE" turns into "CHAIR":

4. Letters, numbers or pictures can be in each other, one on top of the other, hide behind the back of another, consist of one another, then “IN”, “TO”, “FOR”, “FROM” are added to the solution of the problem. For example, the letter “O”, inside which there are the letters “YES”, turn into the word “WATER”, the letters “KA”, standing on the letter “U”, turn into the word “science”, the letter “C”, standing behind the letter “ I", can be solved as the word "HARE", and capital letter"A", consisting of small letters "B" must be guessed like the word "HUT":

It is necessary to say separately about puzzles, in the solution of which fragments “ON” and “OVER” appear, as well as about puzzles in which there is a variability “OVER” - “UNDER” and “BEFORE” - “FOR”. The example shows that the letters “ZhDA” standing on the letters “DE” are unraveled as “HOPE”. The same solution is obtained when "WAD" hangs over the letter "E". The mirror version in the case of letters “hanging” over each other may imply the position “UNDER”, as in the rebus “BASTERN”. Similarly, there is a mirror solution in the case of setting some letters after others, then the rebus can be solved by varying the substitutions "FOR" and "BEFORE", as in the rebus "ALTERATION".

5. Multiple identical letters in a row when guessing, they mean adding a numeral forward - by the number of these letters. For example, the seven letters "I" mean "FAMILY":

6. An inverted picture or part of a word - means that the rebus must be solved by reading the word in reverse. For example, an inverted picture of a cat turns into the word "CURRENT":

7. Insert as a "tick" means to insert additional letter in the word to which this "tick" is directed. For example, if this sign is above the number "2", and with the numbers "1" and "2" on the sides, then the indicated letter must be inserted into the word "TWO" - in our case, "I" - between the first and second letters. And since after the deuce there is also the letter “H”, then the whole rebus can be solved as “SOFA”:
How to solve puzzles. Rule-7. Rebus-13
The above rules are the main ones, in addition to them there are some more “fuzzy” ones. additional rules: multiple selection of letters from the name of the element (when multiple numbers are indicated above the element); pointing with an arrow to a fragment of an element; fuzzy mutual setting of elements (playing on the prepositions "U", "S", "OT", "PO").
But these additional rules dilute the meaning of the rebus puzzle, turning it into a multiple-choice problem. If in puzzles for an older age these rules are sometimes applied, then in puzzles for children their use is undesirable, because children first of all need to master the solution algorithms themselves, and this should be done based on clear rules.
The following are examples of "fuzzy" puzzles:

Also, sometimes in puzzles, a nesting technique is used, denoted by brackets. In this case, the rebus consists of other puzzles nested in it. This technique is sometimes used in puzzles for an older age. For children, such puzzles are undesirable, since children should first be given basic solving algorithms. An example of such a puzzle is shown below:
How to solve puzzles. Acceptance of investment. Rebus-22
Rebuses (including and along with other tasks) with proper application are effective tool for teaching children. By offering a child puzzles of the appropriate class, one can purposefully develop the "hardware" of the brain, consistently teaching him algorithms for solving problems and skills of speculative construction.

Puzzles for children- a puzzle in which a word is encrypted with the help of pictures, letter combinations and signs, has been popular for more than one century. Puzzles, which first appeared in France in the 15th century (the first printed collection is dated 1582 and compiled by Etienne Tabouraud), improved over time and became an unusually exciting game. You can solve them both alone and in cheerful company arranging competitions. The puzzle will not let you get bored even on a gray, rainy day when you can’t go out with friends. Solving puzzles for kids is fun and exciting - worth a try!
What puzzles exist
Rebuses are very diverse: mathematical, with numbers, with notes, complex and many others. We have prepared great selection puzzles for children.
How can you solve the puzzle
Knowing the rules for decoding the rebus, you can even solve very difficult riddle. The word hidden in the puzzle is divided into several parts that can be shown as pictures. In order to guess the word, you need to read the names of the images in nominative case and then combine them into one word. So, for example, if the first picture shows a track, and the second picture shows a person conducting some kind of experiment, you need to read: track + experience = tracker.
Rebuses are more difficult. In such puzzles, one of the drawings can be turned upside down, and then its name must be read backwards. Commas can complicate the puzzle even more, which, if you do not know what they are for in the puzzle, make it unsolvable. When a comma is placed in front of a picture, it indicates that the first letter of its name should not be read. The number of commas means how many letters to discard. A comma or several of them after the picture indicate unnecessary letters from the end of the word.
Having mastered simple puzzles, it is interesting to tackle more complex puzzles. In them, a crossed-out letter can be drawn above the picture, which means that it should be excluded from the name of the picture. When there are numbers above the picture, then only the letters corresponding to them in the word are read (example: if there are numbers 1, 3, 4 above the picture with the image of an apple, you need to read yalo). When a crossed-out letter and a non-crossed-out letter are above the picture, one must be replaced in the word. In some puzzles, the letter that needs to be replaced is not crossed out, but simply put an = sign between it and the one that should be in its place.
Numbers may also appear in the rebus if part of the word is a numeral. In this case, pictures or letters can be placed before or after the number. The puzzle is solved in the same way as a rebus with pictures, only a number or number is read instead of the name of the image.
When the rebus looks like letters or letters and numbers inscribed into each other, then you should read by adding the letter B at the beginning of the word.
In the most complex puzzles, syllables can be represented by notes. In this case, you will need to understand which note is shown in the picture, and read it in accordance with the sound.
