Lickety's list is up; one word short; it is missing the tr 10.

1:35 am

Thanks, Dee

yqw

as 7 and as 8 (related, but the 8 is not a plural)

as 8 not related, sorry

1:38 am

dee, hi! do you have the tr10?

I finally found it on a2z

1:38 am

so is it between the tr9 and tr5?

use 1st 7 letters of the tr 8 + letter that looks like a cross + abbrev for east + abbrev for south

1:41 am

new word for me. thanx.

It wasn't even in morewords... at least paris got me on the right track, or I would never have found it.

1:42 am

how are you doing with this grid?

1:42 am

i suppose it's the plural form of a related word.

I still have 60 to go, and I am finding it really tough.

1:45 am

i'll go and do a jigsaw th4, and come back in a while. xoxox

Lickety's list is up, minus the tr 10, if that helps you.

1:51 am

i am done, thanx

1:55 am

hoped I could keep going and finish tonight ! silly me, 104 for tomorrow! bb early

1:56 am

goodnight all

1:57 am

Sleep well Flosey

Ditto that, Liz!

fa 7 fa 8

fa 7 x 2

2:09 am

Good luck Dee - I'm leaving this until later tonight. 110 to go! Will probably end up listing then! Sleep well, when you get fireworks!

Thanks, Liz!! Have a great eve / day!

2:10 am

Thanks

2:11 am

And then, just like that, I found 5 more words!

2:13 am

i am back. who's here?

I have been in and out... down to 23

2:15 am

well done dee. the last 50 or so are like looking for hen's teeth.

too true!

2:17 am

lol... you should have heard me trying to find the tr10. *mutter, mutter, hmpff, mutter, mutter, blah*

exactly the same!!

2:19 am

scrolling up and down between the tr9 and the tr5... saying where is it? stoopid word...

I totally agree.

2:21 am

*giggle* how are your preps for easter going? i am still in two minds about maundy thursday and the feet washing thing.

Really surprised the tr 10 was included, since it is not in morewords.

We are going to my hubby's mom's on the Saturday before Easter, so I won't do any prep this year. I have been more focused on our daughter's upcoming birthday and getting ready for vacation in May.

2:23 am

nice. does that mean you are off the hook re cooking over the easter-ti4?

2:24 am

when is daughter's b'day, and where are you off to in may?

March 31st; Outer Banks, North Carolina

And she is looking poofy pregnant!!! So cute!

2:27 am

awww.... how lovely. would you be able to send pics? i so love pregnant tummies.

We don't have any!! I have not been able to talk her into taking any yet.

I think she has been so nervous, after having the miscarriage last year, that now at 23 weeks, she is just starting to let herself get excited. Jason felt the baby move for the first time just the other day.

2:30 am

oh wow! i bet he nearly flipped out...*grin* and understandable about the pics.

He was super excited. She wouldn't let me touch her tummy before then - she wanted him to feel first... really sweet.

finally fireworks!

hated this grid :(

2:32 am

WTG DEE!! you have done well. xoxox

Thanks, ((rose))). Well, I need to go find my pillow.

2:34 am

sweet dreams dearest dee. xoxox

XO

does anyone have the stats for the t - 10 word that is not in lickety's list?

2:50 am

tr10/84, nan ette

thanks rose had a feeling it was there someplace but not seeing it

2:53 am

it is the plural of a word in the dictionary, just not listed in it.

2:53 am

2:53 am

woot, good for you nanette

3:56 am

Good morning!

4:04 am

Another freezing night and sunny day

4:21 am

Hello Tri

4:21 am

sn** -- bad word!!!

4:22 am

good for you, but I've had enough -- need warm sunshine for this aching body

4:22 am

fite

4:22 am

4:22 am

cites

4:22 am

sorry

4:23 am

How much?

4:23 am

8 inches. heavy wet stuff

4:23 am

We've had snow here in April, but much less snow these past couple of years

4:24 am

Winter was mostly grey

4:24 am

Snowbirds were not happy

4:24 am

my sweet ruby xoxox

4:24 am

oh! you might like this - my niece is studying journalism in college, and she applied to be one of 30 students from the US going to Cannes to cover the festival, and she was chosen! needless to say, she is over the moon!

4:26 am

Wow! Does she speak French? Tell her to Watch out for those dashing Frenchmen!

4:26 am

hello again, Rosie, I thought I was on your s*** list LOL

4:27 am

she speaks Spanish, very well, actually....she is so excited. I am so proud of her. one fly in the ointment - my sister INSISTS on pronouncing it "con" which she thinks sound more posh. "con" as you well know, is NOT something my niece should run around saying in france.

4:27 am

now why did you think that?? i heard from sprite...did you?

4:28 am

No, never say "con" here! And Frenchwomen don't swear. The worst they'll say is merde.

4:28 am

trif...what a wonderful experience for your niece.

4:29 am

lol. well, "pardon my French" then!

4:29 am

thank you granny.

4:29 am

I teach my Fr girlfriends bad words in English

4:30 am

Rosie, I came in here about one minutte after you left and I thought you were freezing me dout. Silly me!!

4:30 am

dinner time my friends. xoxox to you all.

4:31 am

bon appetit, Rosie

4:33 am

There's a funny scene in the US series Deadwood where a client used a curse word in front of one of the women who "works" in the saloon, and he say "Pardon my French" to which the "lady" resonds "I sàpeak French"

4:33 am

lol

4:33 am

(sorry for the typos, I'm still groggy

4:34 am

I am wearing a ca6/30 to keep warm

4:45 am

Almost half and nothing bigger than a 7 and only 2 of those

4:45 am

Duh me!

4:46 am

me too ruby!!! I was getting frustrated

4:47 am

I can't find anything bigger than a 7. all the usual endings and prefixes aren't working

4:48 am

If anybody follows or otherwise annoys your niece, tell her to say "Fiche moi le paix!" They'll recoil in horror. It just means "give me peace", but it,s slang and a little rough

4:48 am

thanks!!! will do!

4:49 am

fi5 is PB for you, madame! lol

4:49 am

The first time I was in France, Young and cute in a mini skirt and with a baby, when I'd say that, they'd disappear

4:50 am

she doesn't have a baby, but she is definitely young and cute

4:50 am

haha "tant pis3 as they say, too bad

4:50 am

I didn't know you weren't born in france.

4:51 am

I was only 21 and because he was blonde and I wasn't, they assumed I was a nanny

4:51 am

no no, I'm a New Yorker

4:51 am

mind = blown

4:52 am

Why?

4:53 am

I thought you were French.

4:55 am

i mean, it's not fatal...i will go on to lead a normal life and all....hahaa

4:55 am

I just read your profile. My first time here, in '63, my 1st husband was woeking at the Bibliotheque Nationale and I would make a picnic lunch, bring th baby, and we'd eat lunch either in the Tuileries or in the courtyard of the Palais Royale.

4:55 am

ahhhhh....the Tuileries!

4:56 am

I fell in love with France immediately

4:56 am

I didn't realize you had been in France years ago

4:56 am

and ultimately convinced husband deux to retire here

4:57 am

Hello, Bichon, yes, many times, and almost married a Frenchman in '78! But that's a story for a rainy day

4:57 am

i cant speak for everyone, but thus far, I can recommend husband deux

4:57 am

Sounds like a dream

4:58 am

Many dreams....except for the last few years

4:59 am

But as my local doctor said,ominously, I thought, "You've had a good life!"

5:00 am

For the food alone

5:02 am

I thought I just entered some text, but it disappeared...how strange

5:03 am

anyway...I think I will take advantage of the chance to sleep a bit more. love to all

5:03 am

It's the witching hour

5:24 am

sorry, I don't understand the tr 10

5:25 am

Ah that did it. Thanks you all for the TR 10!

5:25 am

The 10 starts like the windpipe word and LBD gives you the end part

5:25 am

help zooz

5:26 am

Bich which part don't you get? The tr word for windpipe or most of what mosquitoes and vampires do?

5:26 am

I can't even find the spelling in the wordplays dictionary - I thought that had everything!

tr 10 -- most of the windpipe and ***er/or and mosquitoes are p**ts

5:27 am

hello Molly

5:27 am

Same first six letters as the TR 8 + another one b**** the dust.

5:27 am

Sorry all did not see your other clues untill it was too late.

5:28 am

the windpipe part is six letters

5:30 am

I have the 8 and 9, but am dancing around the rest

5:30 am

I have trache, but don't understand the last 4

bark is worse than its b**** (pl)

5:31 am

5:31 am

yay, finally got the 10. The monkeys have died

5:32 am

ruby, help me pls

5:32 am

How is your weather, zzoozz?

5:33 am

bichon, "t" for "d" might help for the 10

you put the word in the chat

5:33 am

At the moment in time it is sunny with some clouds floating past. and slightly mild. How is your weather, Ruby?

5:34 am

doh, ty

5:34 am

It's about the same, but pretty cold at night

5:35 am

We had a wee bith of snow last night

5:35 am

Yes night ime temps are around the 4c-5c mark.

5:35 am

Yuck, Bichon.

5:36 am

I remember the blizzard of April 6, 1981

5:36 am

But the garden has started, about 35 daffs, forsythia, primroses, violets and hyacinth

5:37 am

Good morning all

5:37 am

We had some snow too, just a dusting and more coming

5:37 am

Sounds like it is starting to look nice then, Ruby.

5:37 am

Hello, sukee :-)

March 1966 we walked drifts to the top of our high school

5:37 am

Hi zoo

5:37 am

My favoritye time is starting. Next, allysum, tulips and flowering trees

5:37 am

I think, trif, said they had about 8 inches of snow.

5:37 am

Hello Sukee

5:38 am

Hi Ruby

5:38 am

Oy, stop ruby. Got to take the fluffs out

5:38 am

I love tulips, Ruby. But they do not seem to last long with the sea wind knocking off thier petals too early to enjoy them.

5:39 am

How is your bad boy doing? Have you tried any of the meds for Mr. Snappy?

5:39 am

Their*

5:39 am

Ruby, I'll email you about it

5:39 am

1966 I was only two years old then.

5:40 am

The problem, here, with tulips is that they are great the first year and then die off. Locals dig themup every year, but that is too much trouble!

5:40 am

Good girl, Bichon LOL

5:41 am

I'll send you some pix of my gimpy kids

5:41 am

I gave up on tulips. Just daffs, crocus, hyacinth

5:43 am

The tulips werepmagnifique the 1st couple of years, but only a few hardy salmon dwarfs remain.

5:43 am

I had pink, purple doubles, pink and green parrots, etc.

5:43 am

Could try them in pots and then store them in the greenhouse over winter.

5:44 am

Now I either plant (have planted) more r fill in the holes with other stuff

5:45 am

I buy inexpensive flats of geraniums and put them in the borders

5:46 am

We're going to plant a winterberry shrub

5:46 am

ca 8 /50 plz

5:46 am

The handyman put in 40 assorted bulbs, all pinkish, on Saturday, but I have no idea what will come up as they should have been planted olast fall

5:46 am

Hello Ivesy

5:46 am

What is winterberry?

5:46 am

The birds will like that, bichon.

5:46 am

morning ruby, bichon.. cold here too

5:47 am

oh good morning zoo didnt see you lol

5:47 am

Hello, Ivesy :-)

5:48 am

Just came back from Osaka. It is spring there! Cherry blossoms are coming out. Here: snow forecast for later this week! Boohoo!

5:48 am

CA8 automobile + metal container + alien on bike go home.

5:48 am

Keep warm, Godthaab!

5:48 am

I'm jealous, godt, I miss Japnese food!!!

5:49 am

Plural for the CA9.

5:49 am

ty zoo!

the winterberry is a species of holly native to eastern North America

5:50 am

ty zzoozz

5:51 am

Are the berries red? I put in one holly, but the birds eat the berries when they are stll orange, and now, because of that, there are baby hollies all over the place

checked google ... berries look red

5:53 am

I love when plants do that; it shows they are well-acclimated to the garden

5:54 am

We put in an elderberry for the birds and it, too, ghad a baby nearby

Does the elderberry get social security?

5:56 am

Of course, buddleia and cotoneast become invasive pe**s and have to be removed or they'd take over the whole garden

5:56 am

We're not in the French system, unfortunately

6:09 am

I'm not even sure if it's elderberry or something else, but it's tall, has flowers first, then white berries which turn orange and are eaten by the 100's of birds which live in our garden. It's perfct for them because I feed them sunflowers seeds all year, there is a fishpond for water, there are not cats AND they entertain the dogs, kind of dog TV

6:11 am

I feed the birds with fatballs and birdseed in a large birdfeeder and all the food is gone in about two days lol

6:12 am

I have a small feeder and have to fill it 3 times/day

6:13 am

I tried fatballs, but the merle worked in pairs and dismantled them, leaving the plastic on the ground

6:14 am

I am sure the birds are grateful though, ruby :-)

6:14 am

laughing all the way

6:14 am

it is nice to have the feeder where it is, in front of the kitchen Windows, so I can identify all the French birds

6:15 am

I take the fatballs out of the plastic netting and put them into a tube cage the birds love that as they can all gather around the cage and enjoy!

6:15 am

We're planting winterberry to attract birds. Birds don't come to our feeder

6:15 am

They eat so much that I'm surprised they can still fly

6:15 am

Yes i can see mine from the kitchen and upstairs windows!

Drive-in banks were established so most of the cars today could see their real owners. E. Joseph Cossma

6:16 am

I'll look for a tube like that because it would probably attract different birds

6:16 am

hahah, Byz

6:18 am

http://tinyurl.com/z7qtula

6:18 am

mine is the one that can hold around six fatballs, Ruby.

6:19 am

I Wonder why birds don't like your feeder, bihon. Do the fluffs chase them away?

6:20 am

I wrote down that tinyurl address and will see if zoomalia has them or maybr amazon

6:21 am

Amazon sell them, Ruby.

6:21 am

So, more than snow, we also have ice.

6:22 am

Be cafeful then, sukee. i hate ice.

6:22 am

Unless it is in a drink of course :-)

6:22 am

Me too. It's the first full day of spring, come on :)

6:23 am

Yes :)

6:26 am

feeling hungry need to get a snack. Still need 89 words to find.

6:28 am

lunch just arrived: devilled eggs, awful beef bourgignon, with ok polenta, brie, bread and a pear. Happily, there's always something I can eat

6:29 am

Doesn't sound too bad.

6:29 am

stich

6:29 am

oops

6:29 am

not a real word anyway :)

6:29 am

except for the beef which is always terrible

6:30 am

Oh, it is :)

6:30 am

sorry

6:30 am

I've lost weight again

6:31 am

np, sukee. Don't go out in the bad weather; ice is too dangerous!

6:31 am

Good morning, everybody :)

6:45 am

hi crossy

6:45 am

Hey crossy!

6:48 am

Hi all and thanks for as 8/50, Byz

6:48 am

Can I have stats for the 9s?

6:48 am

Odd schedule this time around. Just coming off a week off, then back to classes for three days, then the students are off until the following Tuesday when the new term begins. However, I will have the joy of helping my own beloved with her final credit for her college course she wishes to take.

6:51 am

That is odd. Great to have the time off though and really great to be able to help your beloved with her work.

6:52 am

Sukee - I only have tr 9/72

6:52 am

ty

6:52 am

ca 9/66 ... plural of ca8/50

6:52 am

Thanks.

6:52 am

Thanks, Dos - will have to search for those.

6:54 am

Hi kids.

6:54 am

Hi scrabs

6:54 am

Hi scrabbs

6:55 am

*happily typing away*

6:59 am

Break time, good luck.

6:59 am

Bye sukee

6:59 am

Have a good day sukee

6:59 am

good morning, babblers

7:00 am

Hi Annie

7:01 am

Hi Liz, I should say "good evening" to you

7:01 am

That's no problem. Time zones are so confusing! That's why I just say hi - covers everything.

7:02 am

Liz, Is the time difference 12 hours?

7:02 am

It is 8 am here

7:03 am

It's 10 pm here - so it depends on where you are in the US

7:03 am

East Coast

7:03 am

That makes it a 14 hour difference for me. But it's different again for Rose - she's on daylight saving for another week. We don't have that here.

7:04 am

we changed to daylight savings time last week

7:05 am

In our winter, I'm on the same time zone as Rose but in summer she's an hour ahead of me.

7:05 am

Not sure when daylight saving finishes for Rose - end of March I think.

7:06 am

acta

7:07 am

sorry

7:07 am

No worries.

7:07 am

One of the 8 letter words would be more useful :)

7:08 am

Hi ANnie

7:09 am

Hi Scrabss, How are the bunnies?

7:11 am

Great and I will have a guest bunny here from tonite through April 2nd while his family is away. His name is Giacomo.

7:11 am

Are new bunnies easily accepted into the group?

7:11 am

so you are running a B & B for bunnies

7:15 am

Yes, it is Rabbitat here. Everyone is separated as rabbits are very territorial. Remy has run of the house. Gulliver has his own room and Giacomo will have his own room.

7:15 am

Remy will meet the other 2 at the gates of their rooms.

7:15 am

Ah! Sounds like border control!

7:16 am

lol

7:17 am

I may someday attempt to bond Remy and Gulliver but that takes time in a neutral space under stressful conditions, e.g. laundry basket, bathtub (no water), so they bond with each other.

7:18 am

I must get ready for an appt. Maybe I will be back tonight. ENjoy the day,

7:18 am

Is that the same with all rabbits even if they're from the same litter?

7:18 am

Have a good day.

7:18 am

bye, Scrabbs

7:22 am

55 left and I'm giving up for tonight. Perhaps with fresh eyes I'll see more words tomorrow. Enjoy your day, Annie and lurkers.

7:23 am

thank youi, Liz, and a peaceful night to you

7:23 am

Thanks, Annie

Anyone here have issues with low vitamin D?

8:42 am

no, but my doc said to take 800 to 1000 mg a day when i complained of low energy....

8:42 am

i realized that my multi vitamin only had 400 mg...

8:43 am

a blood test showed that my levels were low and the doctor put me on supplements - the next blood test (months lter) showed that they were back in the normal range

8:43 am

hi wv

8:44 am

good morning all

8:44 am

pen do you only take them when you have low energy?

8:44 am

hi...

8:44 am

car, I take 50,000 units twice a week. It is RX by my doc. She says the otc Vit d does not do any good. Have brought my level up to normal now so continue to take it

this is definitely a puzzle that requires monkeys

8:45 am

no, mlf....i take them every day...

8:45 am

its not as bad as i thought it would beowl

i take calcium with minerals and d. how did you find out you needed it? i've heard of people needing B and potassium but never d

8:46 am

showed up in a blood test done by doctor

8:46 am

wv...that is exactly where I am at.

8:46 am

Yes, Nancy, I have a prescription now

8:47 am

It will work, not too expensive either.

is it a winter problem, since d comes mostly from sun exposure?

8:47 am

Is there anything that I should not take it with, i.e., vitamin C, jucie or such?

8:47 am

I use OTC D supplements and it brought it back to the normal range - still continue to take them

8:47 am

wv your icon is so adorable

8:48 am

I have honored George long enough. I will update my icon now.

8:48 am

can yu tell that I adore Snoopy :)

8:48 am

ohh well yeah i kinda noticed that wv:) i do too actually

8:49 am

car, no restrictions about what to avoid. I have to problem year round, not just in the winter. I live in Florida with all the sunshine but cannot sunbathe as I have had skin cancer so avoid large doses of sun

8:50 am

maybe you need a cooler climate nancy?

8:50 am

Ok...good to know.

8:50 am

I'm a sunscreen goddess anyway

8:50 am

wv:snoopy, careeyore:eeyore

8:51 am

Whatever this pill is, I only take it once a week, so it must be quite the dose

8:51 am

hah no way. I came from Michigan where the winters are brutal.

8:51 am

wow that is a major weather change Nancy!

did you have symptoms?

8:52 am

car, I started out with just one a week but the level was not moving up enough. so now, two a week does the trick.

8:52 am

they say though that the sun is just as bad for you in the summer as it is in winter

8:52 am

Hard to say, TO...I"m pretty much a mess! LOL

8:52 am

Ok, Nancy, good to know. Thank you all for your input.

8:53 am

I have an ultrasound on Wednesday for a thyroid nodule...anyone?

8:53 am

If you are taking the pure Vit D, the pills are caps that are so pretty in color, sort of a teal

8:53 am

Yes!

8:54 am

I was admiring my drugs....LOL

8:54 am

nodules are easily treatable according to google

8:54 am

temple, no symptoms, just showed up on my lab tests

8:55 am

11:32 am

I have put every permutation of the windpipe and the duck and nothing works for 10.

11:33 am

It is a weird word. Starts with the windpipe five letters if it helps

Yup. That is what I have I have. I have the 8 and 9 but the 10 just does not work.

11:34 am

*Wonders how many "interesting" comments Eva gets when she wears that tank top. Especially with her pregnancy enhanced tatas.

1:11 pm

i dont think it fits over the enhanced tatas...heh

1:11 pm

I think it's some kind of bad joke of femininity that you get the best rack when you are least likely to make good use of it.

1:13 pm

not for hubbys lack of trying. :X alas, theyre so sensitive right now that whenever he does try, i threaten him with equal pain in similarly sensitive areas of his own anatomy.

1:29 pm

the dog in your icon right?

1:30 pm

because we found the dog through the SPCA, they do, by law, have to be involved in any readoption - and yes, that was my daughter and Leroy

1:31 pm

Good for you, flossy. That's such a tough situation. I have adopted shelter cats, once had to rehome a cat.

1:31 pm

Hi! 😄

ohh the pink one

1:36 pm

pa5/12 the first one?

i am sure you would make certain to do that. you tried.

1:38 pm

Tough to have to give up a pet, you try everything and still feel bad, in my experience. Really speaks well of you finding Leroy a good new home!

1:38 pm

I did TO and felt terrible at failing, he was just too big for me - I could not have walked him, he even got away from hubby and headed straight to a group of fenced in young lambs - where he could have, by law, been shot!! Legal on our island

1:39 pm

we had to putour great pyrenese to sleep due to a lame leg

oh my! was it just lambs, or was he always hard to control?

1:39 pm

I think I have them nvm

1:41 pm

Mine was a cat that ended up being a danger to our other cats, turned out he made a good solo barn cat for someone else and I was so glad.

1:41 pm

apparently they are often used as sheep dogs, they corral them, watch over them so it was quite natural for him

1:42 pm

So sad, MLFAN17, I am sorry for your loss.

1:42 pm

t mish a long time ago

can't overcome nature.

1:43 pm

so true

1:43 pm

flosey yes they heard sheep and cattle very used to the outdoors. we kept ours either indoors or on our back deck. they need a lot of yard to roam around in

stuck again, n st 7/36?? this grid is too harde for me today

Can someone email the 10 letter word I'm missing - starts with T

4:16 pm

I'll send it

4:19 pm

po

4:23 pm

SMom, the st7/36 is st + first two of the word that comes before cat in hat + first two of frozen water. A totally abusurd word.

4:24 pm

Sorry, s + first two of the word that comes before cat in hat + first two of frozen water

4:26 pm

afternoon all....i am confused....the TR 10 is not listed on Lickety's list.....so why is the 10 on the grid

4:27 pm

Dr. G is known for appending a couple of words not in ENABLE. Stent is another one....

4:29 pm

I'm not sure I understand the "appending" thing. Why confuse people?

4:30 pm

I expect people pressured him that it was a 'real' word.

4:30 pm

thanks again molly... another of the thousands of wirds that lne will never use heh heh

4:31 pm

Seriously? People pressured him that tr10 was a real word? With all the real words not included? We are allowed merde/French for shit, but not merci/French for thank you?

4:32 pm

I figured out the word from the clue below that was given, however, when i try to enter it, the grid will not take it...

4:33 pm

The grid is likely taking it, but Lickety's is refusing it because it isn't part of it's daily list....

4:34 pm

clue for st8/60 pls?

4:35 pm

The grid takes tracheites

4:38 pm

I couldn't figger out that word as it doesn't appear to be a "real" word. with an -itis ending it makes sense

4:39 pm

nm, compound word

4:40 pm

mary, could you clue it, I am stuck on that one too

4:41 pm

nm, just got it

4:43 pm

fi 5/18, pls

there are 2 x fi5/18 bich

4:53 pm

It's like a best fr____ w/out the r

4:53 pm

It amazes me that people try to figure out the words that are and are not included in the bizarre Enable word list that drives this grid. The Enable Word List is the most random, illogical word list ever.

1st one is a cruel or devilish person

4:53 pm

ty gramma

2nd one is pl of fi4/8

4:54 pm

yw

4:54 pm

CA8 and 9 please.

4:54 pm

have them all, ty

ca8 - vehicle + tin *** + "** call home" (and yes, i'm repeating an earlier clue, tyvm)

and then pl for ca9

4:56 pm

ty

yw

5:01 pm

The enable lexicon is touted as being the most heavily researched lexicon out there. Whether or not that is true is irrelevant. What is relevant, it's free to use however you wish, unlike most other wordlists. Was first creted for Scrabble addicts.....

5:03 pm

People always seem to feel the need to defend Enable (Enhanced North American Benchmark Lexicon) even though it is the most out dated reference for word games, since it has not been updated in 16 years.

5:04 pm

And it is not "free to use" here. Here it is what drives the grids we are trying to solve.

5:06 pm

Finally finished. May i offer a clue or two?

5:08 pm

See you all tomorrow then. Have fun

I fixed it, but it needs a refresh I think

that was the 3rd word in my list not in enable

yes that worked, thanks lickety

But I've had to flag 172 words as not valid in my list

5:12 pm

Thanks Lickety

5:27 pm

I think this is the hardest I've worked on a grid and still have over 50 left! Lol

5:38 pm

you are so right misha... i am struggling too

5:42 pm

Seeing the light at the end of the tunnel now though.

5:44 pm

9:13 pm

9:13 pm

nan....look at the clue I just gave....

9:13 pm

cyber ... see my clue ... add a vowel

9:14 pm

if you mean the ch 4 i have tried this several times already

9:14 pm

st 7/36 please?

9:30 pm

I am pleased to be at nbt-4, four words or the maximum for every tile.

9:31 pm

nan, it's a devilish word that has extra cross letter after the first and last letters.

9:32 pm

ty jb

tx JBs. nice clue

9:32 pm

but that is the 7/28 (didn't have that either)

9:32 pm

YW, nan & Cosmo

9:33 pm

Yeah, nan, I'm much better at words than math. Even in Babble!

9:38 pm

Hmm, monkeyed it. Checked the definition. This st7/36 word is new to me. Try this - st + female poultry + 2 letter shorthand (often used in texting) that indicates understanding.

9:41 pm

Plus, it's twisty all up in the right upper corner!

9:41 pm

ty jb --- not paying full attention to the game -- watching jeopardy at the same time

9:42 pm

Evening all. May I please have a clue for st8-60? Thanks

9:42 pm

Evening all. May I please have a clue for st8-60? Thanks

I have to come back in a bit, so I'll say good night all, thanks for the clues for those weirdling words, and may you all dream sweet Babble dreams!

9:49 pm

Hasta la vista babies. I have to apply for a new job. An epic adventure where I work.

9:49 pm

Hi peach; start with the upper st

I think I'll quit for tonight; I'm too tired to concentrate on this tonight! Good Luck & happy Babbling, Everyone!

10:03 pm

Thanks Nan. My computer went bonkers and I had to shut down for a few minutes

10:04 pm

Think I'll give up on this one. Oh, Hi there, Nef, long time no see. I'll come back at the flip.

10:05 pm

I don't have very many words, but I'm taking a certain amusement in having reached nbt-5

10:08 pm

Might I trouble someone for a clue for a word from the eastern a?

10:37 pm

Ooh, I don't have that one, thanks!

Excellent, thanks! I am now at nbt-6, a place I hardly ever have the patience to get to.

10:43 pm

Clue for as 8?

10:45 pm

Nvm, got it!

11:28 pm

as 7/32 please - it's my last one!

11:28 pm
