Apparently the answer is 4, because it's the only number that has the same amount of letters as the word that spells it.

How the fuck, that doesn't make sense... Why does it have to be a number that has the same amount of letters as the word?

I'd say the answer is 4 because the number is zero, because I was given zero answers...

Fucking bullshit riddle, can anybody elaborate on why it must be 4 because f-o-u-r = 4 letters?

are you retarded?
>>
>>675689085
Yes
>>
I also stopped by to ask, Are you retarded? Damn, you must have failed fingerpainting in preschool.
>>
>>675689483
Okay then, so why must the answer have the same amount of numbers as the word it spells.... C'mon
>>
>>675689085
that's an insult to retards
>>
>>675689691
Explain it then

What do you play?
What do you lose?

When you're in the game?

>>675689451
the riddle never ends, you will get into a continual loop of the answer equaling "four" no matter where you start because you will get an answer, but to find the answer to the riddle, you must find the number of letter in that answer. Since that is a new answer, you must now find the number of letters in that one and so on and so on until you reach "four" which the number of letters equals the actual answer
>>
>>675688192
Four
>>
Yes, there are zero letters in "4" but then by answering 4 you're saying there are four letters in "4". You have to provide an answer and then check if it fulfills a sub-condition.
>>
are you serious?
the answer is obviously four how can you not get that?
>>
Four is the only number that is spelled with its own number of letters.
>>
>>675690645
Basically you could answer "four" or "0".
>>
Its 21 you goofs.
>>
>>675690415
That's what I said, 0 because I wasn't given an answer, but then the answer changes to 4 and 4 and zero both have 4 letters... I don't understand people explaining it by means of saying it's 4 because 4 has 4 letters....
>>
>>675690887
Answer = Hitler
# of letters in Hitler = 6
New answer = Six
# of letter in Six = 3
New answer = Three
# of letters in Three = 5
New answer = 5
# of letters in Five = 4
New answer = Four
# of letters in Four = 4
New answer = Four
# of letters in Four = 4
New answer = Four
# of letters in Four = 4

it ends at 4
>>
Seven because the answer is [spoiler]niggers[/spoiler]
>>
>>675690655
I get that the answer is 4, dickhead, can you not read, I'm saying I disagree with the people who are saying it's 4 simply because 4 has 4 letters, surely it's 4 because 0 = four = answer = 4
>>
>>675691084
go home newfriend
>>
>>675688192

I was going to say 21.

the answer to this riddle=21 letters
>>
21 you faggots
>>
>>675688192
6

a1
n2
s3
w4
e5
r6
>>
>>675688192
the answer is 21, how many letters are in "the answer to this riddle"
>>
>>675691125
are you fucking retard? zero has 4 letters in it not zero so zero cant be an answer.
>>
>>675691806
Too ambiguous, that could also be 14, because there are only 14 different letters in it
>>
16 unique letters
sixteen = 7 letters
>>
>>675688192
four
>>
>>675689602
Because the answer is a number and that number has to have the same amount of letters in it in order to be correct. You come up with the answer.
>>
>>675692050
0 has zero letters in it. Therefore, 0 is a correct answer.
>>
>>675692050
You're retarded lol... If you're given ZERO answers, then 0 = 4 because 4 letters, the answer then becomes 4, which also has 4 letters.

first answer = 0 = 4 letters = answer becoming 4 which also = 4 letters
>>
>>675692297
>that number has to have the same amount of letters in it in order to be correct

Why?
>>
>>675692363
there only one answer not a fucking chain of answer.
the answer is four you're over complicating it with nonsense
>>
>>675688192
Cinco
>>
>>675692615
If there's only one answer and not a chain, it could be any fucking number you want it to be, nobody says it has to have the same amount of numbers to be correct..
>>
>>675692444
Because if it had more or less letters in it, the answer would be wrong. Again, you have to be correct. Only the number with the amount of letters equal to the number can be correct.
>>
>>675692837
But then the answer would be wrong. Wrong answers are not valid.
>>
>>675692837
youre retarded.
>>
yeah if you write 0 as a number, it has zero letters, therefore it be correct
>>
>>675692966
No, not at all, the question is far to ambiguous to assert that meaning into it. The answer is 4 because zero is the number of answers you were given, it becomes the only logical answer, and also has 4 letters. There's absolutely nothing saying that the answer has to have the same amount of letters. To prove this, I'll make it simple - Explain why the answer HAS TO HAVE the same amount of letters as the number... so automatically becomes 4... The answer could be 3 because ten, but there's no logical conclusion to that, just like there's no logical conclusion to it being 4 because 4, it's 4 because 0
>>
>>675693105
Exactly, so it's 4 because four because zero
>>
This is a riddle made for elementary schoolers to practice writing out numbers. OP doesn't understand the answer. OP must be underage.
>>
>>675692444
when you say the number, you are answering the question. if the answer is three, you're saying your answer has three letters which is not true.
are you using your left butt cheek to think?
>>
>>675694006
Seriously OP do you own 2nd grade homework.
>>
You guys are all retarded the answer is 21
>>
The answer is 6.
>>
>>675690214
Four
>>
>>675694044
The question isn't "what number has the same amount of letters as the word that spells it" - It's how many letters are in the answer to this riddle... That could be anything, so where do you start? You start with the answer, at that point, you have no answer, so that's 0, making it four letters, making the answer 4, also having 4 letters, and that's where it ends.
>>
>>675688192
21

>>675694539
This
>>
>>675691666
Satanic trips!
>>
>>675694582
I meant 22
>>
>>675694539
Why end the chain there? Why not answer either "zero" or continue until you reach a stable answer?
>>
>>675694819
Fuck, you did. Never mind.
>>
THE CAKE IS A LIE!!!!11111 U JUST LOST THE GAME!!!111 NARWAhAl Baacons @ Midnight!!!!!111
Edit: UPVOTED
>>
>>675694819
What? Because the chain ends there, 0 and 4 both = 4
>>
>>675694539
ok thats one way to solve it but still it must be four and not any number
>>
>>675688192
how many letters are in "THE ANSWER TO THIS RIDDLE"
21
>>
>>675695386
yup
>>
>>675695374
It's 4 because 0, that's the only way to get to it. This riddle would never work in Spanish because you'd start at zero, which would give you 4, which would give you 6 letters, which would give you 3...and so on and so on.

It works in English because 0 = 4, 4 = 4 - end
