Can’t crack “prank or magic” in Cookie Jam? Here’s the answer you’re looking for

Last weekend’s Buzzwords were all about food, but this time Cookie Jam is serving up a real mix of everything. There’s some animal-themed like “furry friends that wag their tails,” or “some glow in the dark underwater,” but then we have things that don’t fit so neatly – like “mix of black and white,” “you set up a tent in nature here,” or “pictures that show data.” Even “pranks or magic” is tricky to pin down to one topic. But you’re probably here for the answer, so here it is.

Answer to “pranks or magic” in Cookie Jam

Thank goodness there are only fourteen letters to pick from when guessing a Buzzword in Cookie Jam, because if we had the whole alphabet, I’d probably still be stuck on this one. So, without further ado:

1. Pranks or magic – tricks

“Trick” is one of those versatile words that can mean a bunch of different things depending on the context. At first, it might seem a little vague, but looking back, the hint actually makes a lot of sense. We use “trick” all the time when we’re talking about pranks, like harmless practical jokes you pull on your friends. And it definitely applies to magic as well, you’re way more likely to hear someone say “magic trick” than “magic illusion” in everyday conversation.

Whether it’s someone pulling a prank or a magician pulling a rabbit out of a hat, it’s still a trick. In both cases, it’s all about deception, but the fun kind, where the goal is to entertain or get a laugh, not to actually fool someone in a mean way. So “trick” really ties both ideas together nicely.

Anyway, don’t forget to check out our other Cookie Jam guides. We have the answer for “edible flower bud,” and “flour comes from this.”
