What is "hangman"?
Hangman is a word guessing game where one player thinks of a word, and the other player tries to guess it by suggesting letters. For each incorrect guess, a part of a stick figure is drawn, representing a person being hanged. The goal is to guess the word before the figure is fully drawn. Each correct guess reveals a letter in the word, and the player continues guessing until the word is completed or the figure is fully drawn. Hangman is a popular game for improving vocabulary and spelling, often played with paper and pencil.
