It uses a phrase that rhymes with a word, instead of the word itself thus `stairs' becomes `apples and pears', `phone' becomes `dog and bone' and `word' becomes `dicky bird'. It can become confusing when sometimes the rhyming part of the word is dropped: thus `daisies' are `boots' (from `daisy roots').
