Thanks Griff,
I got it now! I understand completely. The pronuciation stuff, the languages, 
the game too!

We are playin' double Dutch jump rope with two feet. Feet has two ees 
followed by a consonent that ain't an "r"so we are speakin' Latin by the rules, so we 
gotta have one. 

The shorter the name the longer the rope we're given with which to hang.

Rollin' in the floor, chokin' on too crisp cornbread, lovin' these threads 
more than my wife loves cloths.
