pol, polu, polovina -- a riddle with it

[Alemko Gluhak]

That is not really connected with the theme, but I came across it by
chance:

To blin, to polblina... (Luna)

It was given as one of many examples of Russian "anagrammatic" riddles, in

V.N. Toporov, K issledovaniju anagrammaticheskih struktur, 235
in
Issledovanija po strukture teksta, otv. red. T.V. Civ'jan, Nauka, Moskva
1987.
