Another 8/90!
an 8 for 65
Only played for a short time and already found 39 words, many 7's and an 8. Is this going to be one of those giant grids?
h/8/65
MammaJill, what does your 8 for 90 start with?
w/8/80
Found the W/8/90.
Another w/8/90

I have 2x W8/90 and 1x W8/80 so far. Each is a 7/8 combo.
Thanks, shortseer! Nice to know... I like the big ones, but they take too much time... and too much of my ability to tear myself away of the game. ;-D
there's a third W7/W8 combo
I can't believe that there are two L words in this game.
it looks like an l on my stats printout ... but maybe it's an i
No, it is correct. Two L-words. Currency-name, singular/plural. Came across them once in another puzzle, not a common word.
sprite, what country is the currency from?
sprite, how many letters in the currency words?
Angola, I believe.
L4/7, L5/16 (now you know! lol)
sprite, thank you. I will keep trying.
It takes a very uncommon combo of starting letters.
Don't owls have hips?
sprite, thanks for the help. Got the L words after lots of noodling.
They are really obscure words, wouldn't have found them if I hadn't come across them before. But with letter count and points they can at least be noodled a little easier.
i think googling for angolan currency could be faster than noodling Whether tis nobler to google or to noodle ... That is the question ;)
*lol* I agree!
don't think anyone has mentioned this - another 8 for 50 and its another currency
A currency subdivision, to be exact.
Just as the L-words: subdivions of currencies.
well really, in some countries a currency subdivision, and in a few others, another name for their actual currency ;)
Nice! Would like to know which... perhaps you could tell me tomorrow?
One more S, one more P... why do the last ones always take so long? ;)
Done at 114 words 5.13 2308 points. Apart from the L-words for (fractional) monetary unit(s) no obscure words.
I found the currency. Google didn't help. They talk about the Kwanza, the main currency. Noodling worked. Tis better to noodle than to Google. :)
One could google on currencies and then work through the lists... but either way you find something to ad to your vocabulary. ;-)
Sprite, now I have to learn how to pronounce it and to casually bring it up in conversation. LOL
e6/7 combo. What we know as a spring holiday
We'll make such an educated impression on the public... *lol*
f6/7 combo. grow more infectious
8's: H65, P50, W90, W90, W80. 7's: E28, F40, G40, G32, G48 H56, H48, P36, P36, S44 W68, W68, W60
Can I have a clue for the P/36 and P8/50 please
To harass with petty annoyances; bother Is the definition for the p7 36. Fraid I dont have the 8 either!
There are 2 P7/36's. The other is a (sub) currency. The P8 is the plural.
Oh, sprite, would please tell me what country the P sub-currency is from or the number of points. Thanks :)
You can take your pick from Spain, Turkey and Egypt. Even from Italy in the past. :-D
And Sudan... and Lebanon... and Syria...
Having a tough time finding the A's. They are usually hard for me to locate.
Thanks, sprite, I will keep noodling. I know I will find them.
Funny, I have the same problem. Somehow the A's are harder than the rest. My A's go: 5-6-5-5-6-5-6
For the P-currency: you probably have the P4/6 that forms the base.
Found the P currencies.
there is another 6 between the two 5s. but Im still one short
Then I think you need another 5 in between... ;-) 7 A's is all there is.
oops! cheers peri!
sorry - that should say cheers sprite!
sprite, may I please have clues for the g/40 and the g/48?
g 48 has no definition, but rhymes with a smelly fish
Clues for the H/56 would be appreciated. Once I find that one and the last two g sevens. I will have all of the 7's and 8's.
g 40 has a root 4 for 7 meaning to take in air
H56: most fashionable (slang)
granadan, thanks. I had the singular. Forgot to add the s.
G40: slang for cigarettes G48: slang for "One who defrauds; a swindler" (plural)
woo hoo!, I have all of the big ones.
thanks sprite - that h was driving me batty
Having trouble finding the P's. I still need 7 more.

Periwinkle's Ge's are probably Gi's. ;-)
