    [stevo]

  • It's a story you tell, a point in time that you attempt to retell. you forget the details and think more about what is interesting. what makes people want to listen. it's interesting and powerful. it's inspiring and life changing. it's something that leaves you wanting more.

    [laura]

  • sometimes true, sometimes false, sometimes with a lie we cover the reality, our life,...just to justificate in any kind of way if the feelings we have are rigth or if we are just dreaming...I hate the real world

  • a story that tell of an adventure we write stories in our minds all the time...

    [jennifer]

  • Fairy-tales... sometimes their amusing, other times their fables to make your meaningless life better. However they are necessary since small children and even adults need their escape from their life.

    [Erin]

  • I have a tale to tell you but I need to know if yu would like to hear my tale, it is not tall and it is not long but it is really a very very good tale that I want to tell you...would you like to hear my not so long tale cause I would like to tell you.

    [Von]

  • I took a sip from my glass of whiskey, looked at her. We were sitting in my living room.
    "So... that's your side of the story?" I asked her. Stared at her. She wouldn't look at me.
    "It is..." she replied.
    I took another sip, swirled the whiskey in my glass.
    "I don't believe you." I answered coldly.

    [Charlotte]

  • I offer you a tale of broken dreams. A tale of youthful expectations of the niave mind. A boy ventures into art because he knows nothing else. This boy thinks "Everyone needs logos and brochures, what a great job opportunity..."

    [Aaron Sullivan]

  • lizards tell tall tales. Like Ike the lizard that lived in the block of flats in Hillbrow. He told Mervin his next door neighbour who's like 81 in the shade, that he's truned veggie. Ja.. he doesn't eat flies or

    [toni]

  • A tale of ravenous creatures. They didn't see them coming but that didn't mean they were there. No-one could find the shovel but someone seemed to be letting a long, excrutiating fart. But the tale kept going. As did the non-existing creatures.

    [Kevin Hansen]

  • i don't really know how to write a tale. aren't they supposed to be like fairytales or something? happy ending and all? nothing ever happens like that...but it would be really cool...

    [kelly]

  • ah so tale is today's word... now I get it where were we - oh yes my family's tale. The story of us only each teller, takes the tale told to her - and makes it her own. So really its the story of I. Me. THis tale is my tale. and i choose not to start atthe beginning, I choose to

    [luli]

  • as long as she can remember there was the tale... from her grandmother's first distracted telling to the embellished ramblings of her aunts - the tale was the winding thread that wrapped around their ankles and bound them together.

    [Luli]

  • tales are an interesting way of carrying the cultures forward , its almost like a discovery of essence . tales appeal to young and old and have a way of staying in memory for a long time , the moment you are into something very significant they pop up and surprise you . tale of two cities was a lovely novel . I remember when i was young my grandma used to tell one story every day and dont understand but we never tired of hearing it , the moral of the story was that wisdom and intelligence wins .
    i love sharing tales to drive home a point , it never fails to impact
    lets continue the process of positive tales and cocreate new cultures

    [sushma sharma]

  • Tales are interesting. We all grow up listening different tales and that's how we expand our experience horizon.
    Fairy tales are what make up your childhood and then you move on to something more complex.
    But you always like to hear them.

    [Rajesh]

  • Story, long and short, fairy, unpredictable familiar, moralistic, fun, communication through generations, historical, legends

    [Amanda Darroch]

  • a long tale about how one day a princess got stuck in a tower and a prince had to save her from the dragons knocking at her door. and she ran down and got eaten by them, that was the end of the tale. there was another about three old trolls who lived under a bridge, and all they did all day was eat brocolli with grated cheese. they smelt pretty bad and everyone ran away from them. until they discovered chicken wings. then people flocked

    [eliza kit]

  • and so it is i have to end my tale on such a sad note but it cannot be helped. there never was any hope for any of us, we were doomed before we set off on our quest but despite all the pain i dont regret anything

    [theman]

  • a tall tale lake fiery by night, under the willows, starlight bright. two lovers locked in kiss, two lovers who knew they'd miss, sitting under the willow by night , starlight, making up their tale.

    [sean]

  • So here we were sitting around drinking and someone had to say, well lets have a tale told. God we all groaned, why now, we were all enjoying being pissed and just slouching around and then Janice turned and said "OK", here I go, I've got a tale to tell and I'm going to tell it. I rolled my eyes at the guy next to me. But here we go, it's happening.

    "Well" said Janice in that sell satisfied little voice that she liked to use when she had an audience.

    [Sukey]

  • This is a tale about a young boy who was a goat, he lived in a hunt with seven children at the age of seven and liked to tell tall tales to his friends. He ate cottage cheese one day and got really bad diarrhea!

    [Lauren]

  • the tale you told doesn't bear up to scrutiny, madam. no seventeen year-old girl needs that amount of mayonnaise for a 'really big tuna sandwich.' no-one does.

    And why did those people at your party look so shocked?

    Sometimes I wonder where I went wrong as a parent...

    [tom]

  • my dog has a tail. his tail tells many tales. i think i do not know what this word really mean i hate hate hate this.... i dont know what else to write about this word. i cannot think of anything even though i am not suppose to think about writing i still am. last sentence is this which is nothing.

    [adrienne]

  • The confusion was awful. Moreover it was a marketing disaster. Someone somewhere had failed to dot the 'i's and cross the 't's . The tate was ruined! The tale unbelievable.

    [Article Dan]

  • i once hear a tall tale about a giant and his beloved bride. his bride was not a giant, no she was a mere human. their lvoe was forbbidden but still they wed anyway. on the eve of their wedding the womans villagers came upon the giants castle. fearing that she had been kiddnapped against her will, they moved upon the castle with full force.

    [lou labelle]

  • everyone one has a tale, their story, completely unique. do i want to share mine? do i want to get that personal? i make it look easy when i tell people all the things that have happened in my life but its not. it's tough. so many things race through my head. What do they think of me now? why am i saying this? the truth is everyone wants to be heard. we as a species have this need to connect to one another, the drive to do so is at times impossible to resist.

    [surya]

  • What a tale I allowed myself to create. Foolishly believing the illusion I wove about our casual exchanges.
    "I'm going to miss you."
    "I know."
    ...over before it began.

    [mj]

  • i love you. i dont love you since you have a great body or you can satisfy my physical need and desire, but then again physical intimacy is a part of love. i love you. if you love me, your body is mine. i need your body too.

  • This one time I was walking through my brother's apartment and I smelled weed coming from downstairs. I hadn't smoked in a long time, and thought I should check it out. I opened the downstairs door, and got blasted by a skunk.

    [Brian]

  • a tale of a tail is in my head. I want to think, but my brain is dead. What happened to my brain, what happened to my tail, I lost it 50 billion years ago, down my ancestral trail of a tail. Alright, enough with the rhyming, where's my substance? What's the deal here buddy, can you even think deeply when limited to such a short amount of time?

    [Ryan]

  • i tell a tale, a tale of two cities. it was quite a tale. i'll regale you. i don't believe her. the side of alamo square, hayes street going up hill...that's where it all started. all that's left 22 years later is just a few stories piled high, with pages falling out of them. the notes are next to nonexistent, and there's no getting them back.

    [jd]

  • noting exists outside a tale, everything from truth to lie can be expressed and sometimes that which is told, is what truly hurts the most. Whether you want it to or not, every tale you tell is littered with your pain and

    [aneurin]

  • most of the times when u sit with old people they start telling you a tale of their own time and you get so absorbed that you sit with them for hours. that is the reason that little kids usually like sitting with old people. tale is very good to sometime forget about the worries of life.

    [asif]

  • it was a tale that never ended. a story about a girl that wont grow tired of having a man that feeds on her desire to want to stay. we all tell her to leave him but it never changes.and so we leave this scene, broken hearted, and i cant say for certain what the future hold.

    [Bernard Perez]

  • He sat in front of the fire, staring intently at all of us. This intruder, never mentioning his name, never saying a word. He sat and stared, we stared back, for an eternal moment of uncertainty, no one knowing what was going to happen.

    [barry]

  • Spelled wrong, reminds me of "ale" and cats. Short, on syllable. Don't know what it means for sure.

    [Jason]

  • tales are words that are used to describe stories of occasional mythical nature. Tales can be anything from children's tales to mythical adventures that can have brutal or erotic events. Therefore tales are sometimes more satisfying than ordinary stories because of the diversity that they possess

    [Garrett]

  • I'm always trying to write tales of my life. They never seem to be well thought out or in depth enough. I feel like there is just too much to talk about.

    The tale of myself is something...

    [john]

  • a ale can be many things. it can be a tale off of an animal, it can also be a story, it can be the rear of an aircraft. tals are usually indicative of th eend of things but can be the beginning somtimes as well.

    [JUSTIN]

  • I should have never removed my tale.

    [Danielle]

  • tale

    [Danielle]

  • The tale was hard to follow. It had no beginning, but it sure ended on a bad note. The note was flat and somewhat warm, but at least the tale was on the way and the little men hammering your brain kept soldiering on. This is one of those stories in which the hero is not laughed at or even rewarded but then again who deserves that praise anyway?

    [DZ]

  • It's not an animal one but one about a word, the word tale. It's quite short as a tale goes because I only have one minute to write but hopefully it is long enough for you to get the idea of what this is all about

    [Ed]

  • A tale. Everyone has one to tell but many wish to keep it hidden. A tale that reveals everything about a person should one day be uncovered to aid the world into understanding.

    [Violetta]

  • tale

    [maryann]

  • tale is a story written by someone regarding something. i had once written a tale,named me and him. well nothing much can be told regarding the tale in a short time. wel a brief description can be done. its regarding the life's two views the yes and the no.

    [smoke]

  • FAYRY TALE LIKE CINDERELLA BUT WITH A BIG PENIS OR VAGGINA YES HAIRY HAIRY LIKE THE OGRE NOT NOT SHERK... LIKE BOOTS THE GATO CON BOTAS...BOTAS LIKE MY MOMS WHEN SHE WAS DRUKN

    [mermaid]

  • a tale is often long and meaningful and there are times when tales mean more to the teller than the people, a way to communicate, to try and taste the tone of life through tales.

    [Daniela Solis]

  • there was a tale of a man who had a monkey. this monkey had a tail, so this is a tale about a monkey tail. The monkey tail was long and small and thin with a dark ring around it at the base and at the tip. The man held the monkeys tail while telling the tale of seeing the monkey tail laying in the tree.

    [chris]

  • This tale is one that you might not believe, and that's okay. I suppose that's the beauty of telling stories - people can believe them, or not, but either way, you've gotten them to listen. I suspect people will want to listen when I tell them that this particular tale begins at the bottom of a lake, with my legs in shackles, and ends, quite literally, on the top of the world...

    [Kat]

  • Tales are for telling, so go tell yours. To live a life without viewing as a tale to be told is to live a life without purpose and meaning. The primary goal of every human being is chiefly to fabricate a tale of their life that allows them with the reasoning and purpose to continue existing. So find a suitable tale. Choose one that makes you happy.

    [Tom]

  • Didn't I do this one already? I talked about telling tales that would make your hair stand on end? Why are they repeating. Surely they can come up with a new word every day from now until the end of time. I've never read A Tale of Two Cities. Never read any Dickens, actually. I read the first page of Tale though.

    [Steven Bilyeu]

  • a tale is a story usually something that's tall or not necessarily real but whatever it is it's entertaining and it usually stands the test of time, meaning it's more likely to be told by word of mouth rather than in writing. I haven't heard many tales recently because our computer drven generation doesn't choose to entertain ourselves with stories and such.

    [Laura]

  • A tale of the tail. Or the tail of the tale. Which is it. The former makes me think of the tiger, the latter the end of the story. And yet both seem incomplete. The tell the tale, to catch a tiger by the tail.

    [Leo]

  • tale a tale of two cities. in one city there lived a girl name Latasha who went on a trip to buy vegtables from the market of the siter city. While she looked at the tomatoes she met Mark. He was sitting outside a Cafe reading Stephanie Meyer's latest book Breaking Dawn. She looke at him and she knew he was it.

    [Mrs. Cullen]

  • This is the tale of the pale and bloated
    floated up the surface with a purpose
    locked in and loaded like that showed it
    "Stick 'em up, bitches"
    hunted down through conversations that are coded


    the other's grabbing for land finding only sand
    desert's sucked him dry


    [e_spender]

  • the tale of the seven seas was useless because the black people sailed over the sea to see what they could see but all they saw was a pig and a man and they were all just singing, WHO, who enslaved the pirates of the pants of seven seas, who enslaved spongebob when he was blowing his dad on his knees, NO ONE, no one has 7 knees, no one is a sea, no one saw the man kill the person with the purse made of gold!

    [Clint]

  • I like tall tales, but then again who doesn't? Tale = story. Tale does not equal tail. Tale can be rearranged to create "Late". Late telling a tale? Tell no tales. Dead men tell no tales! I wonder who would even be interested in reading this tale of mine.

    [Jason]

  • its a story you tell that sometimes isnt really true..but has a good theme to it.

    [keylla]

  • tale is what I want to do - just write tales and take the time to think about them. Tall tales, wise tales, easy tales, challenging tales.Just towrite and tell stories seems to me one of the finest thinfs anyone can do with their lives, ti discover the himan condition through storytelling. That's what lice i

    [chandra shekar]

  • tales are simply stories with a fancy ring to them if you ask me. Or perhaps they're a rank of some kind like a few steps behind 'legend' but way ahead of 'story'.

    [Liza]

  • of fiction about misery in old england where men with torches chase evils in their ragged clothes, at night with the fever of something important that needs to be done to save the life and everything else. very importantly told it strikes to the heart of everything we know and want to know about ourselves

  • The old man sat before the fire; around him were his grandchildren, who sat listening to the stories he told them. They'd heard all of his stories before, but listened happily, oohing and aahing in all the right places, begging for more details when he paused with dramatic reticence.


    Every story was told over and over, every story was new every time.

    [Curtis]

  • the tale of the prince and his bride had been written again and again, however, this time it would be a little different yet. You see, the bride was no ordinary bride and not rich either. she fell inbetween classes, your average joeanne if you will. She had a basic personality and common interests like everyone else. How boring or normal this tale would be.

    [Kelly]

  • tell a tale. tales are good for many things. happy endings, lessons and the like. but tell me a good tale. an original one. one that has never ever been told before. that will be a tale worth telling. a tale for the masses. something for one to think about.

    [stephanie martin]

  • so i was listening to this old man tell me a tale about an old man and it happened to be that the tale was about himself and it was a really long tale and he told about his whole life and all the details of everything including the first time he drank grape juice and what it tasted like to his young tongue and how he felt that one christmas when he realized santa clause wasn't real.

    [aubrey]

  • life can be a series of interesting tales if you carefully observe life as it is being played around you. Tales of joy and teales of sorrow. and if we ever learn the truth the tales of unending hope.

    [Prasanna Sankhé]

  • Tale. There's a learning purpose in every tale you hear. Kinda like Aesop's fables...the moral to the story and all that jazz. So how come no one learns from them?

    [chloe.]

  • go

    [Prodip Mitra]

  • i'll tell you a tale about a man i once knew. a tale about a man who is amazing to me. he makes me happy. in the tale he makes me life perfect. what will i do in this tale without this man. i have to live.

  • I spun a yarn one time, it was a long one. So I put it on a spool and wound and wound and wound it up and then when I was done I knitted a sweater and socks. Whenever I wear the sweater I wear the socks, and they match and are super warm, and I love it.

    That was a tale... A tall one.

    [zach]

    [hndgrant]

  • A short story of epic contents, one that is so entertaining to those who listened that it caused a riotous fan base. There must be a reason why we follow behind it as truth but all we find is the tale

    [Michael Hughes]

  • Once I told a tale to my grandma about the lunar rover I'd seen on a science show sorta appearing in our backyard. She didnt believe me, and I was outraged. I mean cmon, what grandma doesnt believe her own grandson? I told alot of lies back then, just to keep things interesting.

    [Dave]

  • Many things come to mind. In particular I like to recall the witty tellings of Geoffrey Chaucer. Long ago, stories were much easier in form. They were set up to appeal to a simpler audience. The tales of old are the "one-liners" of literature.

    [tim machula]

  • there's no such thing as a real-life fairy tale. they tell us when we're little girls that there are people who become princesses because a prince falls in love with them... but it never happens. i kept waiting for this fairy tale to come true, but it's too late.

    [eva]

  • Let me tell you a tale. A tale of woe, as well as profound joy. Of course there are many typs of tales one could tell, but this kind is a very special kind. This is thekind of tale that no one ever tells, and as a matter of fact no one ever will.

    [Patrick Davis]

  • I have always told tales. A tale can be confused with a tail, but for most a tale is a way to tell stories. A tale can be fiction or non-fiction. I could tell you the tales of my life or I could tell you the tales of others. There are tall tales, small tales, truthful tales and false tales.

    [CTator]

  • A tale? I have a short tale for you about writing on oneword.com. I was sitting, eating my dinner, when I stumbled upon this site by mere chance. The prospect of it sounded interesting, so I decided to give it a try. But the word it gave me? "Tale". Just "Tale". I didn't really want to write about the word "Tale" so I skipped it, innocently thinking that I wouldn't have to write about it, and would have a more scintillating word instead. But No... Tale it is. As you can see.

    [kim.]

  • A tale. What is a tale? Is it the simple remedies of a child's hopes and dreams? The key that unlocks an imagination that is pure and naiive? Tell a tale of mystery. Of success of kindness. Tale.

    [Jennie]

  • once upon a time in a far away land a cat told a story of how a wizard had ripped off his tail and he was really a prince. when proven this was untrue, this type of lie became a tale.

    [sarah]

  • I have a tale for you. It's not a fairy tale. It's probably not even a good tale. But Kevin Smith is on the media PC/TV telling a tale saying "Idon't give a fuck who is fucking who, I just don't want to die! BULLSHIT!" Did I tell you I love that?

    [Sin Amen]

  • a long story bout the twisted and funny incidents that took place when jack broke his back while climbing down a hill with jill. also grimm's fairy tale where the strangest things happen. a big bluff that people speak and incidents which never happened that are easily told without a touch of guilt conscience. this is a tale, a story, a lie, an imagination figment,

  • There once was this dwarf who sat on a tree branch. One day he decided he wanted a beer. As he was jumping off the tree, he smacked his head on a stone and split open his skull and died. So ends the tale of the dwarf who wanted a beer.

  • I spin a tale of magic. I spin a tale of woe. I spin a tale that leaves me no where else to go.

    [Erin]

  • tale of a tail.
    the tale of a tail is a tall tale to tell. so tall is the tale that telling can't tell. ode to a tail.

    [holly]

  • A story that is true to some extent but often over exaggerated so as to create an epic atmosphere that mythologizes the main character and the events that took place. Not to be confused with a lie, a tale uses false information to divulge the truth.

    [Caleb]

  • A way to see the human emotions in a structure. a repeated false truth. The destruction of life and the construction of fiction.

    [Alex Leon]

  • i once had a tale.
    but i forgot it.
    so now i just live with
    the memory of that tale.
    and hope one day that i can

    that i once new.

  • Tell the tale of old. Speak the truth as you are told. Tale the one who needs to lead. Smack my belly, sow my seed. Simple truth is not so hard. Hard ways die in smoke and fog. Tell the tale. Speak the truth.

    but what if i don't have a place proper for the tale that follows me through the sad scape of my life

    [niki]

  • Tale is a terrible word. It connotes something hokey and possibly quite annoying. Yet I shouldn't say that because Chaucer's Canterbury Tales are really extraordinary. Not necessarily in their writing's beauty or anything, but in the genius of their characterizations. The Wife of Bath. She is really a stunningly crafted character. I wish I could write that well.

    [Zach]

  • It is a sad tale, human history is sad.

    [>:D]

  • a tale is an awesome story usually involving heroics of some kind. and fair maidens and dragons and little imps who are accused of killing young annoying nephews who deserve to be killed. tales are my favorite!

    [jenna]

  • Tale is a weird as hell word. Forseriously? Like why is a story called a tale? Does anyone else think that's gay as fuck? Who came up with that? Those damn latin people? Or was it the french? Maybe the indians?? GAYY!

    I wish I told better ones. I have friends that are great at it, and I try to practice when I get a chance - but I need to improve.

    That's all I really have to say. I guess.

  • My penis is kind of like a tale, only it's in the front. I can wag it though, and it definitely wags when I'm happy. Unlike a dog's tale, my tale is always between my legs, but occasionally it's between YOUR legs.

  • everyone one has a tale, their story, completely unique. do i want to share mine? do i want to get that personal? i make it look easy when i tell people all the things that have happened in my life but its not. it's tough. so many things race through my head. What do they think of me now? why am i saying this? the truth is everyone wants to be heard. we as a species have this need to connect to one another, the drive to do so is at times impossible to resist.

I have my own tale to tell people and I will write about it in my upcoming novel about aliens and the end of the world. Amazing, interesting, humorous, and true.

    [anne]

  • this is a tale of everlasting damnation and accountability. it may not be told again, although in certain times it may come to be known as a tale worth repeating. the tale comes from the tail of a bunny, who told of tales of legendary stature, tales so tall you'd shrink from their enormous weight. Or was that wait? Or tails? Or tales. I tale you what, you cannot know

    [Tyler]

  • tales are stories, you don't choose them, they come. you stumble upon them and then they're gone before you even knew they were there. sometimes you'll think about them again and there was a lesson, something you needed to learn and something that helped shape who you are at the moment that you remember it. they're there for your story,the story of your life that you will share with your children and grandchildren years later.

  • i can tell you a tale of war and love and all that falls in between. There were two waring gangs shanking men in prisons to reserect their egos. Cocaine slid through the cracks of the earth to find all the children's hands coming out of homes with mothers whose bellies were stuffed with herion and dice.

  • there was a tale about a young child. the story was sad, yet it contained a moral. i forget the moral now, and only remember the sadness. its too bad, i'm sure it was intended to be positive, but i guess thats just how it goes. a tale is a story, no morals are required. a tale is like life.

  • They had to write stories for class. Everyone was stumped- a few half heartedly copied and altered well known fairy tales, some others wrung their memories for any vaguely interesting happenings. Nobody was brave enough to make up their own- they didn't want to look like idiots in front of their schoolmates, because they were to read the stories aloud.

    [elice]

  • a long tale, one that only a master could tell. it begins wit a tail and the telltale troubles. don't begin your story with a crater, start with the bang. a good writer can see the end before they see the beginning.

    [Timothy]

  • It was a yarn. Okay, not really. It was more like a fairy tale-- mostly made up and fantastical. He preferred reading those types of stories, when he wanted to get away. They were so... out of the realm of possibility, it was refreshing.

    [samantha]

  • A tale of fiction where everything is happily ever after. Life is great, everything works out. Tall tales of perfection. Complete bullshit. Tales that make kids grow up thinking life should be perfect when it is not.

    [Sammi]

  • fairy tales have changed my life. sinc ei w as a kid, the idea of the charming preince in the beutiful white horse made me day dream forn years. now as a teeneager, i realize that fairy tales are great and beautiful, but not useful in real life. to grow up, we have to forget about princesses and fairies, and just live as we know real life really is

  • fairy tales have been told since the bignning of time. they entertain children and adults alike, and are very creative. i think i shall write a tale someday. i think it would be about princesses and fairies that are thrown into a dungeon with ravenous wolves, and then a maniac bursts through the window, and decides at that moment he is very hungry for dogs. so he will eat them, and the princesses and fairies will go free. the end.

    [Becca]

  • fairys are so small and simple.. but why do they have wings? are tey really neded.. they should be given real tails.. what about dragons? are they even real? whats the point of them anyway.. so pople can write books about princesses so there prince can same them fromthe evil goer? i think not. i think we should change it up a bit..

  • I once told a tale about about a rabbit playing tennis in a thorn bush. Nobody listened, until one day a man decided he wanted to play tennis, the outcome happened to be extremely similar to the story about the rabbit. When the man came to me angrily, yelling and screaming about his injuries he received from playing tennis in a thorn bush, I just laughed and told him he should have listened. From that day forward, he listens to everything I say.

  • I have a tale to tell you about. One day I was walking at a very brisk past & came upon a most beautiful sight. It was a lovely doe standing by the edge of a woody space next to our house. It first looked startled to see me...then it seemed to want to come closer. At first I was also a little startled & didn't know what to do so I stood very still & let it come closer. It seemed to want to communicate with me in some way. When it got almost to me, it stopped & turned & looked back & turned & started walking in the direction it came from, turning every so often to see, I feel, if I was following. I did & when we got to the edge of the woody space again I saw the most beautiful buck that needed my help. I started toward it & saw what the problem was. It was standing in a hole & had hurt it's foot. I gently helped him out of the hole & after standing for a few minutes. The doe & buck went happily on their way & turned & looked at me with the most awesome look of gratude you have ever seen. It made my day!!

    To tell a tale I must admit I know not what was told. If I tell you this tale, please understand that this tale will tell you what I've gone through in my life. If this does not reach the end, I guess it's not a tale at all.

  • there was definitely a tale in her head, that was quite clear. But the blankness in the whites of her eyes which seemed to bleed into the irises made it clear that she was incapable of spinning said tale.

  • the tall tale that was always confused with the back side on an animal. tale was upset. usually tale was honest but always entertaining. why do people confuse me with an animals ass appendage? we're not even spelled the same.

    To confuse matter more, being "tall" was synonomys with untruthfulness. Is a "short" tale more believable?

    Tale decided to commiserate with his friend "Dick" who was also frequently confused with a like sounding name.

  • its the construction of an event that may or may not have happened. whether it makes it easier for the teller to think of it in a way that lends it self to grandness. A tale is what you tell when theres a lesson to be learnt.

    [JG]

  • All goods tales start unconventionally. Ever notice that most of those "Once upon a time" stories end with endings most of us will never achieve? That's because they are crap fairy tales-they'll never happen in real life, but we are raised to believe that if we can't achieve these fairy tale endings, we have failed. What's that about? The Brother's Grim had it partially right-in the end, evil stepmothers are made to dance til they die, not merely exiled like the step-mother's of Disney's generation. So what's the motto of this tale? Don't watch Disney, and don't be evil. But if you are evil, make sure you have a passport.

    [Mel]

  • tale is something that many of us have, it hurts us sometimes like when you fall down and such. it is also a story or in other words a "tale" it is the biggining of everything because any story ever told can be under the classification of a tale. it is a very vauge topic and is also a very amazing thing to write.

    [andrew]

  • Funny. Probably one of the only words I can't write about--because how does that limit me? What do I tell besides tales? I lie, only lie, online. Why not? What we say about ourselves with no restrictions is so much truer than our life, plus inhibitions.

    [Ice]

  • Sit right back and I'll tell you...oh fuck. It's a shitty song anyway. Here's the thing. When you sit on the fence and tell tales theres a moment when you think to yourself "Oh god...how can I keep doing this?" "What tales will I tell my self?" Deception. She is a bitch.

  • Many people tell them. Some of them are good, some of them are so bad you have to cover your ears to keep them from bleeding. There are long ones and there are short ones. The long ones with little lessons in them are the best but some of the short ones can be good too.

    somehing more.
    a tale of two star crossed lovers, desperatly in love.
    or a prince saving his princess.
    only becuase they're all the same.
    no tales about self virtue or the beggar and the beggar girl?

  • I have a tale to tell about a little girl who loves her stuffed animals....she is so happy when she has them around her. She talkes to them as though they were real. She makes them talk and sing and really enjoys spending time with them.

  • Well, this one time I was in the united states of America. We were crossing the street, and I was wearing these really ratty pants. I tripped ujst as a car was coming up the hill. When I fell, it sped up. Anyway, I rolled out of the way. It missed me by like, 4 inches.

  • tales are for truths. truths are for people. people are for others. others are selfish. selfish is to be human. to be human is to live. to live is to die. to die is for the brave of heart.

  • the tale was long and dangerous. The teller wrapt in some estactic trance of the telling. It included dangers of people and places unlike the present setting. And like all good tales, it had a beginning and and ending. The beginning just before the characters realize the dangerous situation, the ending just after the triumph against all odds. But then the teller, exhausted from her narrative, sits forward and brings the listener into the story with a thematic explanation of a moral. "You too, must watch out. Don't think these things around you are here for good, don't believe that tomorrow will be much as it was today. Your lot is changing. Those others are on the city gates even now, seeking to disrupt your sweet little lives, to change the world that you know." And it was this way that the story teller became the chief. It always has been and always will be that way.

  • people tell tall tales all the time. i don't believe the half of them. it's not like i'm not guilty of it either, though... but it's pretty funny what people can believe. i once convinced all of my friends that i met john travolta when i was five, on my birthday. that's partially true; he was an impersonator.. i didn't know any better. but it really does crack me up at what people will believe. :)

    [lauren]

  • I like many kinds of tales, and as I grow up, I would like to become someone who is good at telling tales and stories. My favorite characters in the stories I read invariably are the ones that are clever, intelligent, and good story tellers; i.e., the Gandalf/Dumbledore figure in the novel.

    [Stephen]

  • tales of stories. forgotten or maybe still remembered. also a name of my friend. her name's tale, it's pretty special. and tell-tales which i like, cause they remind me of when i was a child and everything was an adventure. tell me a story, or maybe i'll be a part of a tale someday.

  • once upon a time there was a boy and he was an average boy, yet learned one day that he was different... he had a tail, a fluffy brown and white spotted bear tail. at first he hated it but then he grew to love it and could not imagine being "normal"

    [erin]

  • This is the tale of an open minded girl with a broken heart. She betrayed her family to fall in love with the reclusive outcast in her village despite the taboo and the curse placed upon her. This is a tale of modern times, and this is the tale of a boy who was taken away by spirits and the murderous acts of a broken hearted girl against those who would betray her because of her love.

    [Deranged]

  • hi this is a very short tale

    [steven]

  • I was once told a tale. It was an outrageous one, gaining lies with every moment. Yet it gave some people hope to hear it. Their little fantasy of lies. Hopefully it'll end peacefully.

    [Pauline]

  • is the story of the life of different people. Tall tales are the stories we tell as children to amuse ourselves and irritate our parents. It is not the part of the animal that runs wild in Africa and will not knock the coffee cup off the edge of the table. But it will keep you wondering about whether people are telling the truth.

    [Tim]

  • tale of a which that loved a demon and after several months she discovered that they couldn't make it

    [Mourad]

  • Once was a tale of a man who thought he knew everything. He was a strong man, and was very fluent in the art of speaking. He could always use his words to work his way out of things. This man was named Samuel. Samuel E. Philips. Now Sam Philips was not a simple man. He lead a very intriguing lifestyle.

    [pete]

  • He told a tale of wonders. A tale of joys and sorrows, of laughter and tears. A tale of fears and comforts and sun and rain. It was full of oxymora, too.

    [Steph]

  • You could tell me tales and I would believe every word of it. Perhaps in the back of my mind I might doubt, for a moment, the validity of something absurd. Yet, with passing time, your words become truth.

    [Jenny]

  • A lot of people tend to tell a lot of tales to make things seem so much more interesting. I know I do a lot because, let's face it, my life isn't that interesting. I live a very boring life and it would n't be great without my friends. I thank God for my friends.

    [Marcus]

  • I told a tale once about a girl who wasn't me, but it turned out to truly be me. What was the result? Dishonesty, sneaking, lies, and I caught him. Yeah... I caught him in a lie, because I lied.

    [grace]

  • I told a soft tale about a man who's leg was broken in two. He fell off of a horse he was riding to California when the horse hit a rock. The old man fell and winced in pain as his leg smashed a nearby rock and caused it to break in two. He was exasperated, as this was the second time it had happened to him. The first time was because of a hooker.

    [Marc]

  • There once was this young pacific island kid named tale. That's all. Just like "Madonna" except he used to ride around Rarotonga on his skooter rather than bounce about on mtv.

    [jessica]

  • Something you write. A story. Typically a fabricated one.

    [Mark]

  • a tale is a wonderful thing. It can whisp up air and tell a story. in norwegian it means to speak. Speaking and maybe telling a story :) tale could also be a name, but I prefer to use the word as a story. I have enjoyed writing this story about the word, tale...

    [Lene]

  • i told a tale of 2 people who had tails. it goes as follows. the people met at a cafe on water st. their tails hung off the chairs and were usually stepped on by others. one would not assume a human to have a tale or a tail.

    [jay]

  • A tale is something many people have to tell but is still that someting I lack. I spose, ironically, this is going to allow people to now tell their tale, but for some, this just adds salt to injury or maybe brings people the soothing thought of the fact that they have no tale to tell and want it to stay that way. The kind of people who live lives in the shadows.

    [Miles Tincknell]

  • there was a tale
    it was a sharp a tail

    no one knew about it
    but us

    it was there there
    then we story a story about

    it took us some long time
    but we cut it short

    we moved on to the next tale
    it was about us and our dog

    it was quite funny
    but all was well

    then all we had to do
    was re-write it

    it was done

    no more

    finish

    gone

    am i done yet?

    Such a fairy tale are we in.

    [Ann]

  • the tale of man is a sad one. It consists of murder, death, lack of trust, and self-involvement. We have murdered one another, enslaved each other, and fought over the most trivial of things. As time passes men continue to develop more ways to hurt and kill one another while making money! How fucked up is that? the world will possibly end in 2012, and that will be the end of the tale of men.

    [Karl]

  • A story of a life untold. Someone forgotten; known as fiction... But he is real... He is true and his tale will drift on for eternity until love finds the truth.

    [Katie Davidson]

    [meg]

  • NOt an animal's back side but a story, the most pwerful thing a man can do. Tell his tale or tales he has heard, this way we have acheived our greatest entertaihments and rteached some of our most profound thoughts whether o rnot they were right is arguable. These tend to be tall or run on but they tell us things we have not heard and recount things we may not have known about. WHat we do without without tales, where would aur ancestors have gone and what would they have done without them.

    [Jose Reymondez]

  • a story, a place to go when things aren't what you want them to be, a feeling, a bond, an idea, a life, an outlet.

    [Julie]

  • there were three of us in the boat at the time, though later there would only be two. we weren't sure how we'd gotten there, or even whether or not we knew one another. there was a vagueness about the situation that wasn't helped by the pressing fog, the light lapping of waves against the hull or the opal moonlight that lit e

    [ida]

  • a long tale of two misfortunate young chaps, destined to be lost alone in a world of hatred and deceit. the end of their journey may seem farther from here than they could ever imagine, but there is a promising end insight indeed.

    [cate]

  • I once told a tale of man and his cat who was spotted and had quite peculiar eyes. The tale went a little like this, it was the cat that told the man that day to wake up. And this struck the man as odd, but he went on with his day like normal. Later, the cat once again spoke to its owner and told him what his future was and how he was going to die. The cat said...

    [Elisa]

  • Hard, short, long, sad. Trying to find meaning, switching places. Falling in love. Alone. Between the brain and world. I am falling, sad and falling. Within. Without. In freedom.

    [Sonny]

  • A long long tale usually end with a very short answer. The tale about the roadblock is a very good example. It ended when he crashed into it.

    [Perry]

  • Tale sounds like tail which is what most animals have, except humans who are also technically animals. Dolphins and Chimps have the closest intelligence levels to Humans, but apparently there is an parrot which can speak as well as a man.

  • once upon a time i was living in a nice town and i was sitting at home listening to music. i clicked the "go" button on this lovely site called oneword.com and it just so happened that the word "tale" popped up. i then decided to tell a tale of how this all came to be.

  • it's funny how a tale can go, You can make it up or re tell a tale that has actually happened, but have we not aleready made up the happening in any case, so if erthing is made up, then what is the tale that needs to be told? just that, you can make your own tale reality.

    [orlagh]

  • i can tell you a tale, and an interesting tale it is. It is a tale of what happened to me on my way home from school a while ago. Quite a few weeks actually.

    [sanjo]

  • The story goes on through time. The ending has never come and neither will it. It is the story of time. Of every man, woman and child. Everything is recorded in the tale of the world and nothing is omitted. It is the tale of the world itself.

    [lovisa]

  • A tale of two cities is the easiest thing to write here. When you weave a merry tale, the children listen closely, the adults roll their eyes, and you make a tiny bit of history come alive and get preserved. Have you a tale that can't be told?

    [John White]

  • a tale is a story that enlightens our knowledge. It can give us deeper insights in the underlying foundations of our world and our society. The story it tells is a teacher of kind.

    [roy webb]

  • everyone has a story, but what makes a life story a tale, or an epic tale? How it's told. The owrlds and languages used make the story, not the adventure or who does what, but the language. It's no small matter to turn a walk

    [Ryan]

  • I told a tall tale about a man with one leg. His leg was the most slender and athletic of any leg I ever saw. Men were known to weep in it's presence. But one day while walking, with crutches of course, this man encountered a dog with three legs. Once they saw face to face the dog stood up on his two back legs and tore off his front leg and gave it to the man with one beautiful leg- so now he could have two legs, even if it is a front right, angled dog-leg.

    [Lucas McGuilicutty]

  • I've soent the last 18 years of my life thinking that the only way anything would be worth it would be if I lived a life interesting enough that I could eventualy write a story about it. I spent years messing up so that I culd be interesting. Now, I'm finally ready to put it into words and it turns out that nothing I did was ever that big of a deal in the first place.

  • tale of very classical dog is not meant for children. it begins from a forst not so far from here but not close either. the dog was brown and it had ted collar.

    [Tiina]

  • To tell a tale can be to weave a spiraling fiction, or to tell a dry account of such an every day experience as brushing one's teeth. A tale is in fact an extremely broad concept, allowing for a lot of leeway and choice.

    [Kelly]

  • a tale of two heads of lice and a cabbage patch doll. the chickens laid eggs only to find the cabbage patch with a hole in the middle and a colony of head lice laid to rest.

    I've fallen off the edge of non-fiction into something vast and deep. I'm lost... But at the same time, I don't want to be found.
    A tale is only untrue, if your imagination defeats it.

    [goooooooooooom]

  • a tale is a story which is usually fictional, but at times these could be true stories as well. Tales could be tall, could be small, could have a moral, or could be trivial. In any case, the connotations of a tale are similar to a fib...
