Good morning everyone!
gm mool
hey nan, happy friday
is it too much to ask for a little consistency with enable? aristo is a word, but anglo isn't?
well anglo is proper no? whereas aristo just means aristocrat
I agree on anglo(s) but ca4 is ok?
thought they were both prefixes
think perhaps at some point aristo was a slang term for aristocrat...but speculating
well what about folic, nan? other acids accepted
yes - that one too
folic was a well known exclusion (along with prion) both of which got added to the next version of the scrabble dictionary
going to list - 45 left and the words are getting weirder
there is no rhyme or reason as to what words are accepted which makes the game frustrating at time
hi all
well there is, it's just very convoluted, and lost in time
46 left here going to the list soon as wll
aha. have to be a long-time list follower ;)
Basically it comes down to the rules that US collegiate dictionaries use to add words
oh boy - missed an x3 and don't have a clue on any of them
so you'd have to go to each of them and look at their criteria
meanwhile, we're talking about a 22 year old dictionary, so there's that too
I made it to 10 today, but I got lucky with a lot of monkeying
so there is english and then there is US college english?
or 20 years old I guess
nan, did you know maskeg yesterday?
Well enable was based off the scrabble dictionary in 1998, which in turn was based off of 6 US collegiate dictionaries
but the scrabble dictionary had some errors and omissions, that enable tried to resolve
I monkeyed it carla -- no idea what the def is
The guy who created enable actually went through the dictionaries and compared that with the scrabble dictionary and submitted for corrections...
another word for muskeg?
and this game started with scrabble dictionary but I think 8 letters was the longest word size so Dr. God found enable and switched.
In the end he worked with some others to create his own dictionary
yes, nan, which I had never heard of but it said a bog in northern north america so I thought maybe you would know
well the other thing is enable is online and free, so that was of interest to a lot of game developers
but Enable hasn't been updated in 20 years...whereas us scrabble dictionary continues to be updated...and it's gotten more liberal in word additions than it used to be
always think of muskeg as being semi-frozen wetlands or swamps
tundra bog?
gnomal - to be like your average gnome
yes, mool
I tried gnomy a couple of times
once you go gnomy...
