Hi Rose, Good to see you. Just popped in on my way to bed. I trust you are surviving comfortably.
Can't keep my eyes open. Not finished bur 112 is enough for now. Bye Rose and all
em
Good morning, friends.
good morning Bea and all!
Rainy day here in DC Metroville. I'm glad all the stay at home workers are off the road.
We had a little rain last night. It is clouding up again. We can use some rain.
We are saturated here. Flood warnings everywhere.
afternoon all, thankfully dry and sunny but cooler today here in London :)
I'd go for cooler. It is sweltering here the last few days.
I would enjoy cooler. I have this vague memory of something called "fresh air".
Yes, the humidity has been horrid.
It's 28C so low 80s rather than 35C which is mid 90s
send some rain to Boston if you have any to spare
good morning all.help wthre8. I have an re7
Most coral like
ty Molly
stats for the other 8 pls
sh8/60
ty looking
Ohhh! We had that one the other day...
I don't remember it :(
I have not been finishing all grids lately so I may have missed it
It end like the start of the other 8
shareef was in the grid recently but not today
check the spelling
ok
Peri just has an MLF moment : D
really?
*had
aha got it
You can't get to the coral using the A
ty
what MLF moment would that be?
good morning everyone :)
Clue for k
Clue for li7?
Ignore k
li7 - most like explorer Erikson
sounds like most like the thing on the end of a branch
or what vicuna said - much better clue :)
=)
Tx!!
well, I had the other 2 versions of that word but didn't think about the most. thx. just need one L now.
are there any that aren't LI?
stats for the v please?
ve5/26
ty carla - new word for me
yeah, someone called it at the flip or I'd have never gotten it.
why isn't oafiest a word??
How many words do you know that can mean Roman troops, a Roman flag or a papilionaceous (and isn't THAT a word) flower?
I know, I was okay reading the first definitions and then it went to the flower one and I was like, okay. WTH
Oafiest is not a word because the Enable word list makers are the oafiest and they chose not to include their description.
good point
r
molly, do you want to guess my missing L? not the Li7 clued earlier
Do you have the other two variations of that word?
all of the l's begin with li and they are all common words
I don't think the first three are common
Do you have the person doing a jail sentence for all of his days?
meaning be pleased to do something? and we have had it before
Well, having it before doesn't really make it "common". And according to the definition, it is from the year 900.
did not have the 6 version of that word, thx
maybe, but it is still in use meaning some would rather do one thing than the other
Doesn't that word end in a u?
I've never heard that word used or read it in a book
I haven't either Carla.
anyhoo, 1st row and 1st column gray!
if only the plural of moose was meese
any mh?
No
missing 2 m's from each m tile
Delurking (Hello, everyone!) to say that the li4 word under discussion always makes me roll my eyes a bit. I believe I have only heard it used on an old tv show from 1965-66ish, called "Tammy"--it was a "Beverly Hillbillies" sort of plot. There were Tammy movies before the tv show with Sandra Dee and Debbie Reynolds, but I'm not sure I saw those. Anyway, I think of the word as a hillbilly word.
thx
that's funny, filomena (and welcome). I grew up a hillbilly and have never heard anyone say it, though we do use a lot of older words.
I was just going to say, Carla is our resident hillbilly expert
morning all

my oldest son came down the other day to discuss a thing he watched on YouTube about Appalachian English and he was asking me all the ones he could remember and then was shocked when I knew them.

The Lost Boys played in my living room way too many times.
I loved that movie. Watched it in the last year and it's still awesome. It's funny how many of the lines I still know.
Keifer Sutherland is such a youngster in that and Stand By Me.
yep
whoops, done with 4s
90% done
ok, i didn't find either 8, may i ask what they are? :)
sh8
Sh and re. One normal, one not
re8
can i have a clue for the non-normal one? :D
I wouldn't say the one is actually normal
Sounds like Omar, the actor.
oh, we had that one just recently too!
so the re is normal-ish
it's a superlative of a regular word, but it's stupid IMO
Well, it's clumsy grammar but i didn't have trouble finding it
thanks, got it!
I still need 7 7's :(
how many words are you down to now, hokie?
24
i need 6 7s and 16 altogether
found a bone
ooh thanks, that's Fs Finished!
3H, 2M, 2M, 3F, 3E(right), 3S (right), 5R, 3T
very similar here just a few less, but same tiles
5 4's, I will work on those
With a nick nack patty wack give a Hursh a bone
i think i will get the list
I'm going to have to too. only found 1 of those 4's and nothing else
well, i wasn't missing anything easy to find, except for one plural
well, I started at the bottom of the list. I missed the girl scout cookie.
is the te7 a regular word?
think of Girl Scout cookies Hokie
that's tr7 that I just mentioned :D
no, te7 is very weird
oops so you did, sorry :)
it goes with tr6 and just sticks another e in
weird, thx
wow RME at one of the 4's I missed - a politician * for office
what is RME
rolling my eyes - I announced one day I've made up my own acronym for babble
like SMH
ah cool cool
what is SMH
shaking my head
thanks :D
that one is standard internet fare
ooh, gotta do something BBL
I'm back. also hurshy, sometimes you see SMDH, which is shaking my damn head.
hi all. 74 left and stuck
keep trudging, I was stuck at first there but managed to make it to 23
ok
I need 11 of the 7s
yeah, they're hard, even with the list
currently trying to find me7
me7: ** se5 to have lost me way, methinks
thx, what a weird one
finished. only missed a couple of easy ones, the rest were weird
if only I had a thesaurus I could use another word besides weird
I don't get the clue :(
wtg carla
67 left now
it se5 like you might need another clue
ty both very odd word
archaic of course
trying to multi-task...41 left here
I just thought you were hiding so you wouldn't see clues ;)
well trying to avoid those too
this has been an easier board so far
yes, fairly easy for me with the exception of about 15%
down to 24 to go
I think you will finish this one
well, down to 20 now
12 left here, you can do it Mool!
9 different tiles still open
still have an 8 and five 7s to go too
retes
yeah, was in a very similar boat
I still have 1 8 and 2 7's to find
8 of my last 20 are s's too
I had more trouble with the r's. do you have the first col s's done?
still 4 left on that s
got all the r's
down to 6 s's needed
LMK if you want me to guess :D
2 more s's down
was missing the lard
hi again
had to look hard to see what that was LOL
hey nan, happy Thursday
for some reason I thought that was bird food. what am I thinking of?
hey again, nan
it is
but it's traditionally made out of lard
it was/is used to make a bunch of human food, particularly in the UK and Europe
interesting
I do provide the birds premade suet/seed blocks tho :)
the woodpeckers particularly like it
sadly if I did they would get none before the squirrels
squirrels don't eat it so much, they will if nothing else is around, but they much prefer seeds
they enjoy our deck garden
In Pennsylvania I'd get 18-20 squirrels at a time, here in Colorado I might get 1 or 2...max of about 4
fireworks!!
our Thurs. am coffee has just been reinstated on the clubhouse patio -- chairs 6 feet apart and bring your own coffee. It was good to visit with everyone again, but it started to get too crowded, so left early.
congrats dolly
grats dolly
me 7 please?
still 14 left for me
8 left here
hershey's clue (spellcheck keeps changing it!) has scrolled off but you should get it from my 12:10 post
12:10 clue gone also
no, it was bottom but now this post pushed it off
oh - found it - nm
oh, couple of obscure h6s
9 to go
ty carla - didn't realize til after I found it that your last post was so specific
well, stuck a bit at 8 to go, need to jump on a call
yeah, nan, I guess it made more sense in context
you can do it, moo!
keep getting called away - last one - te 7 please?
add a letter to tr6
ty -- another weird one
anyone need clues before I leave?
hagd everyone - stay safe :)
any clues for the te7,44? feel like I've tried everything
look at my 1:07 post
just did :)
ty..got it
:D
okay, let's see if I can get any of these 8 remaining
well there's one :)
now just 6s, 7s and an 8
ah, there's the 8 (and a 7)
noice
still have avoided all but one clue :)
hard to do with the weird ones today
yeah, got the h's based on educated guess
and the l7 was a guess too
f
the one starting letter/length clue, I actually haven't found yet :)
which?
me7
ah, I clued it after hurshy clued it for me, then I tried to direct nan to that earlier but she wasn't getting it without context. I will tell you it's archaic.
yes, I saw the end of that
which is how I know there's an me7
and that didn't give it away ;D
oh, I see what you meant now
that's the only word you've been spoiled about but you haven't found it yet
yep
I'm surprised you missed all the t related ones just a bit ago
mostly because I've been playing over or between calls, so haven't really paid attention to chat
I am quilting right now
re
I thought you said you were quitting :)
it kinda looked that way to me too when I glanced back
hello, could I get the stats for the lone E please?
EM 4/6
em4/6
ah the birdie
stats for the middle A please?
am 5/12, ah 4/6 and am4/6
thanks
nbt
still 5 to go
what letters?
H, M, S, T, T
just 6s and 7s
I have a guess on the H
still M7?
yes
not really an odd single S, there is a regular one that's the most but the root is only 3 letters
I think your 2 t's are the ones I clued earlier
obviously you missed the clues, but just pointing out they are weird
let me know if you want the 2nd letter to any of my guesses
didn't see any t clues, but will keep looking a little longer
any clue for me7,36?
ok, avert your eyes for me7, moo
okay
suzee, methinks it ***** like you need some help
me + ***** from that sentence
lol...thank you!
7 to go..all s's
alright, I'm off to the quilt shop. don't like the fabric for my border and didn't even buy enough before.
te 7/44, pls
too many H's in this grid.
any clues for the V word? ty
oh my i just got it with monkeys. weird. never saw that one before. ve 5
hase
oops sorry
any clues for 7s or 8s? ty. dont get tge ones below.
bichon do you have tr 6/30?
Ah had some work I needed to focus on
I shot the s8....alternate
The great barrier r4 is the r8 of the r4s that are on the planet
t7, perhaps this is meant for wrapping your oak to protect it from aliens
ru6/7 might refer to those who are receiving the running back's yards in an NFL game
I can give more 7s if you need them
Most are plurals of 6s
tr 7 is a girl scout cookie - shortbread
well yeah, but my definition is more creative :)
I guess :D
heh
still have 5
okay, I caved...looked at you me clue
*your
well, I would've been surprised if you'd thought of that word on your own
looks like no one called it at the flip
do you want the h stat?
(my guess at least)
I do please, carla
59 left took a long break
no, missing one h still
ha6, peri. looks plural, but no singular
actually just the second letter please
sorry!
ty carla
oh, no worries...all good
3 to go
2 t's still?
got the other bizzaro h words, but missed that one
yep, 2 t's and an s
assuming a t6/7 combo and an s7
but who knows
bottom t
well, the 2 t's are related by have different 2nd letters, so not really a combo
oh, just one t today
still stuck on yesterday
*by actually should be but
ah
I think your s is probably similar to an f in meaning
I have that one
the s I'm missing is on the right s
hmm, ok
nm, found it
was a plural of a 6 I had
thought I had typed the plural, but nay
Okay, need the t6 stats
islands in the *, that is what we are, no one in between, how can we be wrong
tr6/30
ah yes, obvious really....*looks for roll eyes button*
well that's fw
RME is my acronym
well done
bit light on my hebrew
but you got the t7?
hebrew is difficult because the structure is way different
yep
same with hindi
yeah, I don't really know hebrew or hindi
neither do I, but those words tend to be the more exotic ones we find a lot of the time
I actually didn't know the tr4 was hebrew until I looked today
Neither did I
so that's my thing learned for the day
yeah, so the tr4 was the definition of the te7 and the tr6 had no def, but I assume it is the same
right
we'll see if I remember any of them in the future
I assume the tr is a colloquialism of the 7 and that the six is just a translation alternative or misspelling that became common
yeah, I don't have high hopes for that one, though things like dacoit and adyta have stuck somewhat
does seem like we've had a lot more ancient greek words lately
heh, just looked at the definition of the st6/7 combo, has a tie to yesterday too
yeah, I saw that earlier. so that was the plural you were missing and not the one I was singing about. :D
Could I have a clue for am5/12 please?
arab prince, alt spelling Jax
Thanks
yes, not the one you were singing about
hi all, nbt, and being a flag nut, the V did not take me long
help with fo7 pls
