u gonna give the answers or we gotta guess?

I know some of them, but not all:
1 – River
2 – Man
3 – Strawberry
4 – No clue
5 – Time
6 – No clue
7 – When it’s ajar
8 – The letter “m”
9 – Stars
10 – The letter “e”
11 – Silence
12 – A promise
Not sure what the other two are though. My favorite has always been, how long is a piece of string?

4- mountain
6- egg

Haven’t you ever read “The Hobbit” ?

Have not read The Hobbit. I don’t like Tolkien.
Mountain doesn’t fit the riddle though. They don’t have roots, and they do grow.
