Bait Bazi

Bait bazi is a game that people play in some countries. It is a type of poetry competition where two teams try to outdo each other using poems. Each team takes turns saying a line of a poem and the other team has to come up with a line that matches the first line's rhyme and continues the poem. The team that can't come up with a matching line loses the round. Sometimes, the poems are about love, nature or religious themes. People enjoy the game because it requires good memory, creativity, and a good sense of rhythm. However, it's important to remember that some people believe bait bazi is not respectful because some of the lines can be hurtful or condescending towards the other team.
