Kalodont or kaladont is a South Slavic word game, popular in Croatia, Montenegro, Serbia, Slovenia, Bosnia and Herzegovina and North Macedonia, in which players in turn say words, each beginning with the last two letters of the previous word.
[1] The game is usually played by different house rules; the game either ends when kalodont is used, with the person saying it being the winner or kalodont being the only repeatable word that can be used to eliminate the previous player.
The name of the game originates from once popular Austrian Kalodont toothpaste brand that became synonymous with toothpaste in the region of former Yugoslavia and a common word for it.
The word must have at least four letters, must be in its standard form (i.e. infinitive for verbs, nominative for nouns, etc.)
[1][2] The winner is the player who posed the word with the difficult ending; he gets to start the next round.
