 Charades - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Charades or charade is a word guessing game.
Though less commonly heard with this meaning nowadays, the word charade was originally also used to indicate a riddle either in verse or prose, of which the listener must guess the meaning, often given syllable by syllable—see riddle.
Charades has been made into a television show in the form of the Canadian Acting Crazy, the British Give Us a Clue, and much more recently the 2005 debut of Celebrity Charades on the AMC television network in America.
