THEME: Both words of a two-word phrase begin with PA
GOOD ONES:
Title: PA DE DEUX [not pas de deux]
Messages from Mozart? NOTES
Private organization? ARMY
Fat head? LIPO [as a prefix it heads the term]
William and Kate's set TELLY [TV set to Brits --- I thought a social set so far above my own I didn't know what it was]
Fowl language? PEEP
Talking points? ROSTRA [literally the points from which they speak]
Guitar support KNEE [simple enough]
Acts inappropriately? EMOTES
BTW:
___ favor POR [In formal text, foreign words are italicized. In Xwords, they're not; hence, the word "favor" looks like English but here is Spanish. I don't know if por favor is used so much in English that it is appropriate for us, but I like the idea of using a word that is the same in two languages.
PARCHMENT PAPER and PAISLEY PATTERN seem rather redundant.
RATING: ;D ;D ;D
Three grins = Loved it; Two grins = Enjoyed it; One grin = A bit bland for my taste; One teardrop = Not much fun
