Was playing a game similar to the game in the discussion section with the Korean words. Tag type game with finding a word the first letter of which is the last letter of the previous word.

dog

good

doughnut

tomato

etc

I tried a similar game but this time the new word was to have it's last letter the same as the first letter of the previous word

dog

road

ear

move

jam

played it several times with my students, but get stumped when I get to a "j". I usually have to say game over at that point. would like to continue it if it's possible. any ideas out there. Words remotely related to English at least.

hajj

Like raj, it's a borrowed word, but so much of English is.

Thanks guys for the help. Thought it would have to be something along those lines.

I seem to remember a book with the name "The HAJJ"
