hello everyone :)
Hi Nan
an 8 and 9 ~ The 8 is the plural form of the 9
ty, Rain! :)
np, the tr 9 was WAY easier than the an 8 and 9
I was doing the an's from the bottom right and suddenly realized that there was another an in the centre, lol
I've done that with the in's
I did that too !
Hello everyone! I have not seen GrannyRose or Sprite on here for quite a while. Has something happened that I have missed or is it just they have not been on?
Okay a very quick first run through and I found 167 words! Will try and come back later to see if I can find more words. Happy babbling everyone!
good morning from Cleveland. Hanging around for a few minutes before I scoot off to work.
name that mythical literary land that was in the grid yesterday too
narnia
ding ding
good morning all. help with either 9 pls
... more literary or fantasy than mythical though ....
no idea
en8 is the only 8 I have
well, it's in a book (literary) and not a real place (mythical). sorry if I misspoke.
I only have 1 7
I have 4 7's
thnx for EN 8
... oh no ... I just always take mythical to mean Greek or Nordic ... ... ah well, got it anyways ... ... I never seem to see these things until you point them out
stats for a 9 pls
no worries. mythical can also mean imaginary or not real.
looks like there is a tr9 just scrolling down in the chat but I don't know the points
thnx - same place in chog had AN 8 nad 9 - will look
name that horrible bacteria in undercooked beef
e-c0li
... I'm on a roll
ding ding
According to the definition, mythical means fictitious. Since Narnia is in a work of fiction, I think mythical works.
not seeing any of the big words. it's weird - when I play at the flip, which is 1am for me, I can find all kinds of big words. but if I wait til morning to play, I can't find any.
An8 - one who an6/18
El8- el6/18 + not out
which a are we looking at there? I can't even see an6/18. I seem to be stuck at 140 (175 left). can't even make it to halfway. maybe I should go do something else and come back.
an8/45....an + what comes before Cat In Hat + first three of one who doesn't tell the truth
got the el8!
End it in king of the forest for a 9
An6 to apply holy water or oil
For those who are literal, I took liberties with my clue so as not to spell out the word
thanks for spelling it out, molly. not sure I've ever seen that word.
LOL, I meant spelling it out for me, you didn't literally spell it out
Tx molly
I have never seen the word either. Some sort of sun spot.
une, thx. I thought that word had 2 n's
and I'm usually pretty good at spelling. definitely not a morning person.
well, I managed to pass halfway. guess I will do some other things now.

oddly, I am having trouble with a 4 and a 5 in the h's
well.. my power is still on so that's good news

My son lives in Vallejo, rasta

i sucked at math hursh.. so sorry
your clue expanded on mine more mathematically and I thought they were brilliant
it was only feigned outrage :D
now everyone make sure you have the li6
these have all been good clues
math was my least favorite subject in school
i saw hokie's clue
ruru i was never good at math and i hated it
gym was my least favorite
LOL, I loved gym, math, english. trying to think what my least favorite was. maybe social studies/history.
it pains me whenever i hear people talking about not liking math
the funny thing is i scored high in math on my SAT before college
don't take it personally.. it's boring to some people :D
hurshy do you need a tissue?
LOL MLF
i'll be ok :)
i admit however division had its moments as did fractions
I would think most people that like this game preferred english over math
I can't believe you turned down an offer for dinner out Doren :D

i don't think i've seen fe7bee for a long time
Loved math....was flying along till i hit the brick wall of calculus :-(
algebra was my wall.. my brain just couldn't understand it
Loooved algebra!
I actually loved calc and passed AP Calculus exam so didn't have to take it in college, but the math they put me in was way, way worse.
i don't need a tissue, but i might need a paper bag
SO
i loved math and algebra but then with trig i fizzled and hated the teacher and that was the end of my math.
AP CALCULUS?? OMG!
i liked math except for geometry.
i never got near calculus
I loved algebra too, but I found myself trying to use it when I volunteer led math superstars when my boys were in 5th grade and couldn't really remember it well enough.
... if you enjoyed AP Calculus what could they give you that put you off?
geometry was my least fave of the maths
i loved geometry.
any clues for the 9s?
it was called something like mathematical modeling: vectors, matrices, blah blah blah
My geometry teacher was a very senior lady who gave us the same test two days in a row LOL
it's hard to teach math and interest many students. it's not like history where you can throw in acecfotes.
AN9 - an + article + king of the jungle
I will take a clue for either of the in7's
history i LOVED
... You can if you try
tr9 is 3 times a year
got an 9. ty. super clue as always une.
shapes and sizes are just not my strength. i can hardly put something back into its original package. my brain hates those shape rotation tests
have no 8s either so stats and clues welcome.
my oldest son is not good at math at all, but he knows so much history and geography it blows my mind
i dont see annual in grid. not getting tr 9
mkg think of the word that means the hundreth anniversy. it begins with ce
1976 was the bi******, mkg
yeah, it's a different vowel
Tx for the tr9!
use the same enfing
ending
took me a while earlier
... get him a biorgraphy of Pythagoras ( the religous nutbar) or Galois (the teenage rebel who dies in a duel over a women) or Khayyam (who writes the Rubiyat) ... or ...
interesting, I will write that down
trying all vowels and not getting it. darn!!!!!!!!!
he was content being an avg student in high school but appears to be applying himself and into learning this first year of college. we'll see after this semester I guess. he said he has to take 3 calculus classes too.
... the classic is Men of Mathematics by E.T. Bell however it seems that he made a lot of it up ... ....
I was good at calculator.
and what's he in that he needs 3 calculus credits to read history?
got it finally. ty. those sticky vowels......
LOL, I majored in accounting and we were always allowed a calculator.
any 8s out there? would love stats and clues. ty.
well, he just reads history on his own, he is in computer science. I was surprised he said he needs 3 calc.
I just ordered the book Infinite Powers (a book about calculus). Guess that makes me a big nerd :D
... an 6/18 8/40 ... to wipe with holy oil
I still do not knowmy times table and yes I am ashamed about it. I just cannot grasp maths at all.
I have to really think about them sometimes
.... a math book and you're a geek! ... what doees that make me? ... I think I've passed 50
and I've always loved how UK says maths. I try to incorporate it into real convo all the time.
just keep your shoes off when you count Zooz :D
cl 8/45 ... musical instrument played by Benny Goodman
one little girl in a second grade class i subbed in recently was faking a british accent, and wearing a black velvet dress with a pearl choker with one of those big cameos in the middle
LOL yeah that is about as high as I can count, Ruru :-)
Co8 - co + li6/18
Tx dos!
the truth is zooz we're all surviving without great math skills
down to 111 and time to run out for lunch date. tata
surviving, but not really LIVING, ru
lol
111 for me too
And yet I have always been good with my money. So I am doing alright I suppose.
lol, hurshy
I have 67 to go. probably should eat something
Either that or I am just tight with spending it lol
i'm good with money too.. but it's not hard for me to make it either
Good for you, Ru!
are you a Math teacher hursh? I gotta ask
i have taught HS math, but lately i have been teaching elementary school
wow, I just spent way too much time looking for the wrong letter combos on a word because I messed up on the maths
wow, a big one today!

good morning -- bright sunny day, but the frost is on the pumpkin - not sure I'm ready for winter!
... know what you mean ... spouse decided that we must go to a resort in Algonquin Park for Thanksgiving .... two days of rain and temperatures at freezing ... ... I know that I'm not ready
anyone know that poem? we had to memorize it in 8th grade and recite in front of the class. I can still remember most of it.
we were at 98 degrees last Thursday, so I am liking the 68 right now.
... which poem was that? ... You recite yours and I"ll recite mine ....
when the frost is on the punkin (I think that's how it was spelled) and the fodder's in the shock and you hear the knock and gobble of the struttin turkey cock
The Cormorant .... The common cormorant or shag ... Lays egg inside a paper bag ... The reason you will see no doubt ... it is to keep the lightning out ... ... But what these unobservant birds haven't noticed ... is that herds of bears may come with buns ... and steal the bags to hold the crumbs
with the clackin' of the guineas and the cluckin' of the hens oh it's then the times a fella is (blank mind). (and I knew more when I started typing but then it went woosh.)
... Taught her to never encourage us to turn the page to read the poem on the other side
no wait - the clucking of the hens and the rooster's hallalooyer as he tiptoes on the fence
ty dose
oh it's then the times a fella is a feeling at his best (now I'm blank again)
... thank Ogden Nash ... and the clown who put the poetry anthology together

To captivate or charm. Normally spelt with EN not IN
Time for me to go. luck to everyone with the grid. I am stopping at 315 words.
I think that means fireworks? well done.
... We had to do 50 lines ... everyone was doing Frost's Stopping by the Woods on a Snowy Evening and then somehting else .... while I picked Frost's Out Out (which includes the line ... and they, since they were not the one dead, returned to their affairs) ... then finished the count of 50 lines with Nash's THe Common Cormorant ... ... there was some question of my needing a visit to the psychologist if not a psychriatrist ....
enchant is the only word i can think of which isn't in the grid?
... but that was 55 years ago so who knows who was right .... ... must be off
oh, Stopping by Woods was another we did. whose woods these are, I think I know. his house is in the village though. he will not see me stopping here to watch his woods fill up with snow.
stopping by the woods.. i love that peom
my little horse must think it queer to stop without a farmhouse near between the woods and snowy lake the darkest evening of the year.
mlfan, if you have en7/32, you can get it
which i don't
kids dont have to learn poems nowadays. I am 80 and can probably still remember about 1000 lines of shakespeare. its very good for the brain!! Who remembers Rod Mckuen I still learn a few lines of his occasional
he gives his head a little shake, to ask if there is some mistake. (and now I am stuck)
omg i found en 8/65

Well, you don't say... (asked question with tongue firmly in check)
Well, you did ask. 🤣
yes … he is adorable and I guess you may be enjoying grandmother-hood...
Ya think??? I spent a week looking after him a few weeks ago. We came to a nice understanding. He cried. I sang Irish rebel songs. He stopped crying. We clicked.
He’s coming home at the end of October to be baptised. Him, his Mam & Dad and a small army of their friends from the UK. It is shaping up to be quite a weekend.

Hi Soodle. Still very jealous of your joy!
