Answer 1

Cute homophone riddle. The person above gave the correct answer, but in case you have to do something similar to this for a test, just remember that homophones are words that sound the same but have different meanings. So, you should be able to figure them out on your own next time.... a 12 year old is a minor and a prospector is a miner. The garden should not be full of grass, so that gives you the clue of weed, so the other word would have to be we'd. Another word for a bucket is a pail, so the word that sounds like pale that means while is pale. Do you see how this works now? Hope this helps. :)
