I have no idea what a french tushy is..........any help would be gratefully accepted :-)
word for tushy in french ;) begins with a d and is 8 ltrs long.
4t8 -- it wouldn't take it, for me.....
Oooops... that was misspelled; now I'm okay.
that's weird - ?? how did you spell it? (isn't that a hard question to answer)...like, where are your double r's and um - ?
cool!
sok I got it too - misspelling sucks :-)
I forgot the E on the end.... or on it's tushy, I guess.
I don't think I've ever got a 10 before!
157/2395 hows everyone doing? must have missed lots
The agony of defeet...

the nine and the ten are ver similiar, and are worth 72 and 98 respectively
and 27 fours each worth 4
good luck all
Hi Bulldog you say you have 7x 8 could I ask you to give the value of the other one please
Its ok got it
195/3346 I think thats the highest ive ever had
Goodmorning, y'all So far, I have four 8s, for 60-45-66-40 points, plus one each 9 and 10. Let's hear it for the letter R
Do we know how many words there are in this grid??
G'morning Christine How are you?
Marianne - Goodmorning, Love.... Ijust signed on, again, to see if there was a numbe posted. How're you doing, on this game? Lotta words, here...
Would someone be kind enough to tell me which R the 10 letter word starts with. :o)
marigold are you here?
The R on the far left..
Thank you Christine. I will keep trying.
I thought that was the one but the longest word I have so far is 7 letters.
Taking a break. Will be back to look for that 10 letter R word.
periwinkle - do you have an F7 for 40 points? Add RE
I'm awa' to ma wee bed... I've been babbling and reading all night, need some sleep. Did you all remember to say "white rabbits", this morning - and click on the Breast Cancer site?
sorry Christine will speak ro you later. Marianne
Shouldn't 'setee' be a word?? But I'm not complaining. Love the vowels!
I'm back. Christine, I don't have an F 7 for 40 points yet. Will try now. Thanks for you help. :)
I meant thanks for your help.
I believe this is the way settee is spelled.
Having trouble finding the F7 for 40 points. Clue please. :)
I also cannot find the 10 letter word starting with R. Clue(s), please. I am getting a headache.
F7 for 40 - think coffee
Thanks, Milly, I will keep trying.
Haven't seen any breakdown posted. I'm sure there are many more, but in the event this will help anyone: Bx1, Dx22, Ex15, Fx16, Gx6, Hx3, Ix5, Lx8, Ox3, Rx59, Sx19, Tx19. 176 words, 5.19, 2812. Still missing two sevens.
222/5.2/3646 Does anybody know how many there are supposed to be?
Milly, the coffee clue is not helping me:(
Milly, I have that 7 and I don't see where coffee comes into it...
I have a different F7 for 40 (a mode of transport), but "coffee" doesn't seem to be firing any of my synapses for the F7 serving as the foundation for the R10.
No idea, but I obviously have a lot more work to do.
Never mind - the penny dropped on the F7 ... and its related words.
Maybe you don't have that type of coffee in the US - I'm British.
Are there two F 7's for 40 then. I got the mode of transportation.
I have the F7 mode of transport, but I can make a 10 out of it. The other F7 for 40 I have can be made into a 10 letter word.
There are (at least) 2 F7s for 40. As an alternative to the "coffee" clue, perhaps "purification" will help ...
Hi Milly another Brit here
Hi Mal. I'm from Portsmouth.
Im a Londoner the weather is great here.
Thanks BIA. Still looking. Must have gotten too much sun yesterday.
just got the F10 and 9...re: coffee, what about a lack of giardia as well.
what is giardia?
Anyone else find the 8-letter d-word for 45? It made me giggle.
around 01:30, teehee
If it is the French word for tushy I have that one.
a protozoa occasionally found in our h20 and human/animal intestines
Need another break. See you later.
peiwonkle - there's an F6 word (27 points) that's the base for the R10... think coffeemaker, or water treatment.
periwinkle - sorry about mucking-up your name... I need sleep ... this bloody game is too addictive, I can't get away from it.
Christine you have mail
Apparently there are 259 words.
Hey, Milly - I'm a Brit, too - I'm Marianne's sister living in California.
runnigforhome says there are 259 words, I best go make a packed lunch I shall be here for ever
Hi Christine - nice to have fellow Brits here!
Christine, Thank you my big ( as in older) bestist sister, yes I did.
Marianne - you have email... Do you have all the 7s??
Hey, Little sister, I lost 8pounds since I last saw Dr.Joey (2 months) -- oh, I've also lost another inch, sigh - it's height, not waistline - sigh, again.
Christine, how may 7's are they I have about 8 I think. My computer is so slow this afternoon I think I need a new elastic band!!
I shall be putting on pounds sitting here eating sweets.
help here
hello?
is anyone there?
hello? hello? hello?
Can't understand why it won't take 'resit'...
I 'm here
Thought that it should have taken resit, it is in the dictionary. Well the English Dictionary!
hi peps
they take weird words in french and stuff but not in english!
I have eleven 7s - there must be more, because I have only 124 words, out of a possible 250-plus....
Crazy game, but addictive
wish "terrified" wasn't teasing me. am taking a break with half the words. 136/2384.
Still only got 8 7's but I shall have to have a coffee my brain is in backward parking.
at least deers is a word
christine: I have fourteen 7's with 136 words...if that helps.
i think i have 19 7's/139 words. (not sure, it was a quick count.) be back later tonight.
I've got 21x7 and 167 words, but I bet there are more out there.
Isn't it odd that this dictionary accepts DEERS as the plural of DEER - I always understood there was one word for one or many deer..I got it by noodling, thinking there was an alternate definition, but I guess not. Live & earn through Babbling!
or of course you could end up brain dead Christine.
47 words 609 points i just started not that long ago
Oh, I gotta get outta here -- that last post should've read "Live & Learn Through Babbling"
retilt isn't a word :( :( :(
It's not my brain I'm worried about - but the part I sit on, for so long, playing this bloomin' game.
Wow, if we EARNED through Babbling, we'd NEVER be away!
4four 7's :( 627
thought you where getting out of here!
8 for 60.
Christine too much detail don't get personel.I DON'T DO PERSONEL111
if we earned through babbling after the past 6 puzzles i'd be sleeping on the street and eating out of dumpsters....
Yes, we'd be holding up signs saying, "Will work for vowels!"
i need a hint...i'm willing to pay for it HAHAHAH...for the 10 that starts with the 'r'
How is everyone doing? I'm at 119/5.00/1733, working in between hh chores.
Tonlinya...if you try to get it out, and it doesn't work, then do it again (that was a hint).
and i'm watching the sex in the city dvd's while the child sleeps not doing my hh chores...sigh
past tense
LOL at the hint and the sex in the city episode i'm watching
Did you get the word, then?
nope but i got a 6 and a 7 that'd i'd like to do now instead of waiting another 30 years...sigh
hmmm.....(scratches head)...
700 other words except for the 10....got like 5 7's and 4 6's though...sigh
50/660 must go shopping...
has anyone been able to use "geri" in a word? no, i couldn't stay away...
The two F words I have for 27 are ferrel and ferret. Are either of these a help in finding the 10 letter R word?
No, unless you have ever used a ferret to make coffee ;)
The word in question gives you one 6, one 7, two 8's, two 9's and the elusive 10
GeneralVanya, Ha, Ha, your response made me laugh. No, I have not used a ferret lately to make coffee. Any other hints for me?
Thanks General, that did it for me. :-)
erm... I don't know of any hints that haven't been given that don't make it obvious enough already, read the messages I really think you should be able to get it from what is here. Good Luck
I don't have a second 9 from it...
I am trying, really I am.
Can't decide if FERREK is a wild animal, or the tip on an umbrella or cane... but I'll trade a word FILTER
Sorry my bad it's just the one 9
OMGawd... that should've been FERREL.....
Christine you really are having a lot of SENIOR MOMENTS today
Thanks Christine, don't know why I didn't find that base word all by myself.
TA DA, finally got the 6,7 8, 9 and 10! :)Thanks all of you for your help,especially Christine.
I've not been to sleep - reading & babbling along - and my fingers just settle where they will. I'm off, to meet my daughter for lunch. See y'all later. You'll just have to imagine what this message looked like, before I proofread it ... and to think, in my young and silly days, I was an editor for TV Guide!!
Chritine Bye.
Does anyone know how many times a letter is used to start a word. It would help me to keep on looking.
Bx1 Dx24 Ex16 Fx21 Gx10 Hx5 Ix6 Lx11 Ox4 Rx64 Sx22 Tx19 There are people who have more words than I do, and I'm still missing two eights. Hope this helps.
Are there really 15 I (eye) words?
soho72, yes it helps, thanks.
Ignore, my question about the I (eye) words.
Need to take another break
anyone want to give a hint with to the 10 "r" word
Look on the log starting around 7:35 a.m. there are several clues.
thanks lfaerie, i'm still looking
10 letters: take an 6f word and make it past tense for 8f, then go back to the beginning and do it again.
Stuck at 122, time for another break.
ewenme: on your 6f-put a prefix in front and you have a 10 for 98
That's what I was trying to say without being too blunt...make them work a little harder! ha ha ha
hi mom! ;-) I just started playing -- how are you doing today? baby still has a fever today :-P
Hi Sweetie, it's hot here...even with the fan going. She still has the FH&M? Poor kiddo. I hope your AC is working. I've got 137 words on this one, but I need to get back to the mundane work: hh chores. ugh. Mom
ac working well -- everyone else wants coats but must suffer through my pg! ;-) 94/1533 so far
Hi fixitfmly..sorry baby's sick. Coxsackie?
Krista -- had to look that word up -- it would be a good one for a babble grid someday! ;-) Yes. Ped says hand, foot & mouth disease is going around -- she's had a fever for a few days & he said her throat looked like it was quite sore, yesterday she had tiny red spots on feet and face -- generally grumpy but nothing tragic, fortunately! ;-) She sleeps w/tylenol and I can babble . . .;-)
I only know it because both my kiddies have had it. I was pretty weirded out the first time, because they referred to it as 'hoof and mouth disease.' I thought she had some barnyard malady!
DH & I are calling it hoof & mouth too ;-)
I'm slowing down at 133...congrats on being listed first a few days ago!
LOL! It's right up there with ringworm for savory disease names.
that was quite a quirk! -- there were probably more than 20 people who all had the same score. It blew my theory that people with the same score were listed in order they completed on CBT (Central Babble Time) -- b/c I know I finished later than most of the others who had all the words. My 15 min of fame! ;-D
Well, hey, fluke or not, I was proud of you. :) Yes, and that order mystery to the list. And it wasn't alphabetical, either, was it? Back to my spaghetti sauce...think I need to come back later with fresh eyes.
I meant "add" it to the list of Babble mysteries.
Just curious - has anyone used the N in the right hand top corner at all?
Sleeky, no, I have not used the N
No I have not used thetop N
I'm done. I have more than half of the words. It is getting to be too much of a struggle. Good luck all.
How are people getting so many "e" words, I only found too... Man I suck.
I've been stick at 203 for hours. I'm finished!
247 words 5.20 4006
how many "O" words are there?
i have 4
Yah I have 4 as well.
only 2 for me
I only have 5 eye words, how many are there? or how many do people have?
I have 5.
6 now.
nine "i" words
I wish 'bogus' would stop jumping out at me...
And "bogie"...
i'm stuck at 163 words
Me too, what a strang cooincedence.
if you found the weasel like animal, nearby (same beginning) are two iron containing words for 7/8 worth 40/55 -- it's encouraging to watch the score jump suddenly! ;-)
i fouind the weasel, it was like my first word, but iron containing words? what do you mean?
the archaic term for iron
I'm pretty sure I know the beginning you mean, but damned if I can make another word from it.
FE? same, i can't make anymore words, i'm resorting to things i've never heard of, and just typing random things that look like they might work
has an -ite ending
it's not taking the iron word...unless i'm spelling it wrong
got it
ooo, thanks, tasty!
thisis my best score ever, not that that's saying much.
I have 5 words that begin with those same 4 ltrs
ooo i got it too! thank you
166 words...*sigh* i'm too slow to play this game
eh 53/754...brain is in the off position
54 being your words?
woops meant 53
oh yeah...although i only played for about 4 hours today...life got in the way
well you still did better then me with the time you had. i think i played for, well i'm not sure
usually i can play more during the "work week" hehe
hard to play on the weekend...
everyone's gotta start somewhere this is the best puzzle we've had in about 5 days....
i just discovered the game, and am probably losing so badly because i don't have a broad vocab, either that or my teenage brain can't handle the capacity of it all, who knows. i'd probably spend all my summer hours doing this just cause i'm that bored.
good for you keeps the brain alive and you can always learn new things
