“Round the words. Words? Words!”
Television Game
Opening:
Host 1 and Host 2: Hello and welcome, everyone, to… “Round the Words. Words?
Words!”
Host 1: I’m your warm host, ---.
Host 2: And I’m your fresh host, ---. Aren’t we all feeling the heat from the weather
outside? Don’t worry! We’ve got some cool word challenges to help us beat the heat—
right here, and right now!
Host 1: That’s right, ----! So, let’s chill under the shade and get ready for some wordy
action that’s coming your way!
Host 2: Now, let’s introduce the teams who will be competing in today’s word
challenges. Shall we?
Host 1 and Host 2: Starting with… Team A! ----- and Team B!
Host 1: Now, partner, it’s time to introduce our first challenge. Drum roll, please…
Host 1 and Host 2: “DO YOU FEEL IT?” (intonation)
Host 2: In this challenge, it’s not just about what you say—it’s about how you say it.
Our players will be given a sentence, and the first person to step into our circle will
have the chance to answer, using different emotions to make us feel it.
Host 1: (It’s not just about speed, but also about your tone, emotion, and intonation—
and we’ll be looking to our audience to help judge.) (intonation, stress) Right, guys? If
they agree that the team nailed it, they’ll raise their right hand to show support. But,
if not, they’ll stay silent—that means the team didn’t quite make it.
Host 2: We can’t wait to hear from you! Let’s start with this sentence: “I won 100
million pesos.”
/Player 1 from Team A and Team B rushes to the circle/
Host 1: (Here we go! Team A is up first, ready to make us feel this sentence!)
(intonation, stress)
Host 2: Ready, partner? Player 1, show us your emotion.
Player 1: I guess?
Host 2: (We hope you’re ready!) Show us that you're overjoyed. (intonation, stress)
Player 1: “I WON a HUNDRED MILLION pesos!” (stress, consonant)
Host 2: Player 2, your turn. Express this as if you’re feeling hesitant. (intonation)
Player 2: “I... I won a 100 million pesos?” (intonation, rhythm)
Host 2: Player 3, how about when you’re feeling unimpressed? (intonation)
Player 3: “I won a hundred million pesos… I guess.” (intonation, rhythm)
Host 2: Now, Player 4, how would you say this if you lost it? (intonation, stress)
Player 4: “I won a hundred million pesos… but it’s gone now.” (intonation, stress)
Host 1: (And there we have it! Let’s give it up for Team A!) Wow! With their starting
player's speed and the whole team’s participation, I’d say this team is committed!
What do you think, partner? And how about our judges—our audience? Let’s hear your
thoughts! /asks the audience/
Host 1 and Host 2: (For the final judgment, we ask the audience to raise their hand
if they think Team A succeeded.) (intonation, rhythm) On the count of three…
Host 1 and Host 2: 3… 2… 1… Go! (rhythm, stress)
/Audience participation/
Host 1: (WOOOW! What an audience! Are we beating the heat, or is the heat beating
us with the blazing support of our crowd here?) (intonation, stress, consonant)
Host 2: I don’t know about that, partner, but it’s clear that this support means our
audience agrees Team A nailed the challenge! Congratulations, Team A! Let’s give
them another round of applause!
Host 1: But don’t worry, Team B, you still have a chance! We’re moving on to the
second challenge…
Host 1 and Host 2: “Twist the Tongue!” (intonation, stress)
Host 2: (Will they twist their tongues or twist our brains with these tongue twisters?)
(intonation) Two players from each team will compete, and the two who deliver it
smoothly and strongly will win!
/Two players from each team step up/
Tongue Twister: “Thick Thinkers Think Thick Thoughts!” (consonant, stress)
/Player 1 from each team delivers this/
Host 1: (What a delivery, you guys! Let’s move on to the second players.) (intonation,
rhythm)
Tongue Twister: “A good cook could cook as many cookies as a good cook who could
cook cookies.” (consonant, stress)
/Player 2 from each team delivers this/
Host 2: (Wow! Sobrang sarap! You nailed the consonant clarity and gave great stress
on “cook” and “cookies.”) (consonant, stress) Now, let’s see what our audience has to
say about this challenge.
/Audience deciding/
Host 1: And the winner is [winning team]!
Host 1 and Host 2: Now, to wrap up the game, it’s time for our final challenge:
“Connect the Words!” (intonation, rhythm)
Host 2: Here’s how it works:
1. The host gives a scene and a starting word.
2. The teams take turns adding one word at a time to create a funny or meaningful
sentence based on the scene.
3. The host will focus on intonation, rhythm, and stress while delivering the scene
to make it more engaging. (intonation, rhythm, stress)
Scene: The person you admired rejected you after you confessed. What is your
response?
Starting Word: That
/Team A answers/
Host 1: (Oof! What a response! Does our audience agree?) (intonation)
Host 2: Moving on, Team B—
Scene 2: You were served the wrong food at your favorite restaurant.
Starting Word: I
/Team B answers/
Host 1: (Now, that’s what I’m talking about!) (intonation)
Ending:
Host 1 and Host 2: And the winners of today’s challenges are... Team [Winning
Team Name]! Congratulations, you did an amazing job! (intonation, stress)
Host 2: (And that’s a wrap on today’s episode of “Round the Words. Words? Words!”
What a fun game! We’ve had laughter, intense challenges, and even a few hilariously
absurd moments!) (intonation, rhythm)
Host 1: (Huge congratulations to all the teams! You showed incredible skills in
navigating tongue twisters, rhythmic sentences, and yes, some funny responses too!)
(intonation, rhythm)
Host 2 (laughing): And to everyone watching, thank you for joining us! Remember,
words can be just as fun as you make them! We’ll see you next time on “Round the
Words. Words? Words!” (intonation, rhythm)
Host 1 (waving): (Until then, keep playing with words, and don’t forget to add a
twist to your day! Goodbye, everyone!) (intonation, rhythm)
