You do not need to register. Just go to the homepage of the site and write in the field provided for this purpose the sentence you want to convert into rebus.<\/p>\n<p><strong>A click further on, you will see a beautiful rebus. All you have to do is download and print it.<\/strong> Behind this apparent simplicity is a real titanic work carried out by the designer of the site. To produce a satisfactory result Rebus-o-matic must \"phonetize\" the text you are going to type. It must, whatever your sentence, turn it into a series of phonetic signs before it can find associated images.<\/p>\n<p>Clear, but not simple. The phonetization of the French poses great difficulties. How, for example, can a machine be made to understand that the word \u2018convent\u2019 is not pronounced in the same way, depending on whether it is the verb conjugated to the present or a noun?<\/p>\n<p>But forget what's under the hood and have fun. <strong>You will be able to easily create rebuses to work with your students. Be careful, the puzzles are less simple than they seem. <\/strong>As for example this proverb \u2026<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-4249\" src=\"https:\/\/outilstice.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/leschiens.jpg\" alt=\"Rebus\" width=\"633\" height=\"620\" srcset=\"https:\/\/outilstice.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/leschiens.jpg 633w, https:\/\/outilstice.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/leschiens-300x294.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 633px) 100vw, 633px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>In icing on the cake, RebusOMatic offers a guessing function<\/strong>. A theme is chosen: Proverbs, Movie Titles, Song Titles, Famous Characters and the site immediately generates a riddle. If you do not find the solution, you will be able to give your language to the chat with one click.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Friendly and free for your own use.<\/strong> The advertising a little too present will make it more difficult to make it available to students even if the site offers a rather clever button that allows to make it disappear.<\/p>\n<p>Link: <del><strong>RebusOmatic<\/strong><\/del><\/p>\n<p>Warning: A reader has just reported a problem with this site with the Edge browser.
