英语谜语可以分为两类，一类与汉语民间谜语一样，用几句话描述一样事物，然后要求
猜射；另一类谜面短小，运用单词结构及双关谐音等手法巧妙答问。
1. 物谜：从某种意义而言，可以把中国的物谜翻译成英语猜射，反之亦然，通过翻

But they does not see each other。
比较一下汉语中的谜语：
左一片，
右一片，
长到老，
不见面。
有异曲同工之妙！谜底皆为耳朵（ear）。又如：
It is so weak，
That a little wind can move it，
It is so strong，
That you can cut it with a knife and leave no trace。
（ key：water）
