Riddle
Riddles are little poems or phrases that pose a question that needs answering. Riddles frequently rhyme, but this is not a requirement.Riddle
Seven letters are we,
Four different words we make.
Guess us or be ridiculed;
Your reputation's at stake.
The first has pictures,
Paintings and such.
The second causes sneezing,
From ragweed or dust.
The third is an adverb,
It's hard to explain
It's the same as immensely
But it's much more plain.
If you can act like a king,
this word you will sing.
These clues are sparse
This riddle may be tough.
But if you are smart
Then it will be enough.

Answer
Gallery, Allergy, Largely and RegallyA gallery has pictures and paintings
Allergies make you sneeze
Largely is somewhat difficult to describe - it is certainly a synonym for immensely, but not as strong.
Regally means to act royally, or kingly.

i loved the riddle but how about:
sometimes I act like a king
although that is not really my thing
I think you may have missed regally
sometimes I act like a king
although that is not really my thing
I think you may have missed regally
Nice, unusual anagrams! I got it after thinking a bit, which made it fun

Very well written! Good job. I got them all but I thought the three words were going to be a small quote or something
thats great! i'm gonna add it to my favourites.
nearly got it but as usual looked at the answer before i'd really thought about it. i thought of greatly or largely for the immensely thing, and maybe gallery, but i hadn't really thought it through and now I'm annoyed i didn't get it! but great teaser keep it up!

I thought of gallery, allergy and REGALLY which kind of works also.
Good one!

Cool teaser. I liked it, and the best thing is, I got it right!
Very cool teaser!
That one was fun (even though I didn't get it!!)
My reputation was at stake? I'll be ridiculed? What an incentive to work this one out! But I got it right, so *whew!*
Nice and easy. Add Regally and you've got a winner.

GREAT ONES!!!
Great one! I gave up too quickly. I'll do better next time (I hope)
FUN FUN FUN
good one...lil bit drunk gave up too early
Clever & nicely written. Fun, too!
I got most of it, except the word largely. Was interesting, fun, and quite clever!
I just looked back at this a year later and realised that you already have "regally". OOps. Sorry.
Piece of cake! Great teaser!
Had to unscramble the other words to come up with regally, but I got it. Thanks for a perfect teaser.

didn't come close to largely or regally great teaser

I got 3 of the 4. I used to sneeze a lot, but didn't think of "allergy."
Riddles are fun
hehe, i, as ususual, didn't get a single one.
but it was still pretty good.
Very clever, very fun!
Too complicated for me. Fun trying, tho.
gallery and allergy were easy, the rest
IT WAS LOADS OF FUN
good job!
IT WAS LOADS OF FUN
good job!
Just what I needed - my favourite anagram teaser - to start the day! Very well written. Go them all. Please give us more!
That was good. I got them all very quickly---exciting for me!
Easy Peasy, loved it got it right away tyvm
LOVES IT!
Great Teaser! Although I was having a Monday morning this morning....I saw the word pain instead of plain and therefore didn't get the third word because I was looking for a word to discribe immense pain...lol Got the rest though and got a good laugh!!!
enjoyed it greatly
Oops! Typo - should be describe....I told ya it was a monday morning!!
Cool. Thanks for the new info!
Clever - GD job!
Super riddle! Congratulations!
Very unique, and cleverly written! The royal clue is the one that gave it away for me. My parents have been anagram solvers for years These get the mind working, in the morning. TY
This was a tough one for me - maybe my brain hasn't turned out yet today...
I got it, yay!!! I got them all, I got them all... na na na na nah nah, ha ha haha ha... !
This was a good 'un! I never would have known that those four words all had the same letters, very interesting, and the riddle and poetry were very well-done also! I thought that the first clue gave it away too easily, for me that was the easiest one. I think one of the harder ones should be first; not that anyone asked, lol!

I saved my reputation i got them all It was fun and it was very stimulating on the ole brain cells They don't do anything on my morningtime and this is great for them keep them coming
This was great! I actually got it! Good teaser!
i agree, very clever and fun. thank you.
Hey hey, I got it right! I feel smart!
good job well done!!!!!!!
Cool! I got 'allergy' first, then went back to tackle 'gallery', pondered the adverb... thought about kingly... wondered if 'legalry' was a word... then got 'regally', and puzzled a bit longer ('greally?') before I finally got 'largely'! Very good riddle, I had so much fun I had to join this place and say so out loud!

fun teaser!! i actually got this one without help, i'm so proud of myself
Only got two, it was fun., Thanks
Drat! Now my reputation is in ruin!!
Great teaser.
Great teaser.
Nice!
I also thought of allergy right away and from there on it was easy to rearrange the letters for the other three. But it was lots of fun--and I always feel so great after I've solved a teaser.! Thanks for a good time!
I got this in my email a few days ago, so just getting around to it today. After getting all but REGALLY, I find out I already voted on it. Hmmm...must have found it on the website in someone else's favorites--ya think? Anyway, it was fun--even if I missed one!
FEI CHANG HAO!
EXTREMELY GOOD!!!
EXTREMELY GOOD!!!
Great job. Made me think for a while but I did get there. More please?
One of the funnest most well written riddles ever, in my opinion, I got the first three fairly easily, but for the life of me i couldn't come up with regally.
Couldn't get off 'museum' at first, but knew that would not create anagrams! When 'hugely' wouldn't work for adverb of immense, I went straight to 'largely', which gave me gallery, allergy, and regally in quick order. Thanks for the great fun!!
Got the first three but the last one stumped me. Great teaser!
VERY GOOD!
All I got was gallery.
All I got was gallery.
A real brain teaser. Very good!
Good qiiz!
I didn't remember doing this teaser before. I got allergy right away and then thought of answers to 1 and 2, but could not get number 4. Now as I read the comments I see I did this a year ago and got them all! Is this what happens as we grow older?
But I enjoyed this teaser a lot both times.

NICE1!!!
it was over my head
I got gallery and allergy but didn;t understand it until after I looked at the comments.
wow REALLY good teaser!!! i tend to just quickly look at the answer before solving the riddle, and i did that this time!!! after i saw the answer, though. i realized how everything fit in! very clever teaser, thanks!!
Very nice, very clever, and easy. I thought of museum for a second, but realized it was wrong, and the only other word I could think of was gallery. The rest were easy after that. Thanks for a good one.
Reasonably easy but good fun. Suggest you try to make the rhythm of your lines a little more regular - in the introductory lines, anyway. Thanks!
dalfamest! It is a riddle, not a poetry contest. She did good! Nice one!
Once I saw the answers, I was upset at myself for being so stupid. For some reason, I misread the first part and thought the answers had to be 4 letter words. I'd like to think that, had I read the first part correctly, I would have gotten it. Still, the riddle was well written!
I notice that all the teasers are repeats,and very few people respond w/answers. I think that the editors should put out some new material,therefore retaining people,instead of chasing them away.
Given the number of oldies, I have begun to wonder if not enough people are creating new material.
I liked it but I can't remember what an anagram is, I always forget it. I had to read twice to see if they meant 4 letters or seven. I did get allergy which got me the answers. Good quiz
That was fun -- got it with allergy, and the rest were easy. The adverb clue helped a lot.
Allergy was easy, then gallery. Had to work a little bit for largely and regally. I like a challenge!
I thought museum at first, but then realised it wasn't seven letterss, so tacked an 'S' on the end.
Once I got to allergy, I figured out that it was gallery, and the other two were easy enough to solve.
Fun teaser.

I got it! Too bad I don't have a reputation to stake on it...
I got the allergy and gallery part but not the rest. Good and clever teaser
Fun, easy and entertaining teaser. I got them all pretty quickly.
