The first charades (charade - conversation) appeared in the VI century at the Symphony - "Riddles". Since the XVIII century, they have become fashionable among the French (the magazine "Mercure de France"). In the Middle Ages, charades were called carts on two wheels. Later, in the lexicon of feudal lords who indulged in verbal entertainment after a hearty dinner, this word began to mean "a whole cartload of chatter."
The Russian history of these ventures also began in the XVIII century. The publication of that time with the answer "smooth + bone = smoothness" has been preserved. In the next century, since 1845, charades began to be regularly placed on the pages of the St. Petersburg magazine "Illustration" ("mole + er = Moliere"; "floor + mud = half", etc.).
We determine the meaning of the first word in this charade: apparently, "steam" is melting over the kettle. Then we determine the meaning of the second word: most likely, Dad has a mustache growing above his lip. Putting together both words, we get the answer to the charade - "sail", which the sea wind inflates and invites you to sail.
