The potato eye is the place where the root is growing later from. You can divide a potato into several parts with one eye in each and plant them separately. Later you get as many potato plants as you had parts😁 I got 6 or 7 riddles correct, but it doesn't matter. The main thing is It was really funny. Thanks a lot for the video.

Hello,my name is Soraya,from Medellin Colombia 🇨🇴 South América. Question #8 maybe a pine Apple?
Hi Gid, for riddle number nine i was thinking " the eye of the cyclone or cyclone's eye" .Do you currently use the Word "cyclone" in English? Perhaps you prefer "hurricane " like Bod Dylan, or maybe "storm" like "riders on the strom" ... Enjoy your holidays.Serge from France.
The 100th likes. Not even one riddle. Thanks Gideon
Thanks!

Hello
Hi!
In Slavic languages a potato has “eyes” not marks, literally the same word as for human’s eyes.
That’s interesting!! Thanks
This also apply to Romance languages such as Spanish, French, Portuguese, etc. Maybe it's a common term in all languages. However, I'm not sure about other languages like Chinese and Korean.
Hello , teacher I have one question
Sure?
