Wordiers
Oops
Thanks anyway, got it!
84 left for tomorrow morning coffee time.
Hi everyone, I’m new here. Any advice?
Welcome - my only advice would be to enjoy the games and the chat
Thanks. I certainly am so far
Welcome. Do you know how the word scoring works? For 4 letter words you add up the individual tiles, for 5 letters, you double the score, 6 letter x3, 7 x4 etc
Thanks I hadn’t looked at that yet.
morning all
Hi aslindy.
hi scrabs!
I have mostly focused on the middle of the grid. I need to spread out.
yes, the middle is full
The e is key.
morning.
morning owl
Hi Owl
hello lindy, hello scrabbler
Good Morning, friends.
morning bea
Hi Bea. How is your mom?
good morning. bbl
good morning all
Hi Chris. Dive in.
hello chris
hies
Free clue!
Thanks for asking, Scrabs. She is doing well. Muscle spasm have ceased and she is back to her usual routine. She still uses the walker a lot more, but that is due to her bad knees.
It's a great grid. I did some in the middle of the night.
Very good. My mother (89) uses a walker and has a deteriorating skeleton but a sharp mind.
I've noticed since this incident, her mind is slipping at times.
She is likely emotionally shaken from the ER visit.
And maybe sleep deprived.
I hadn't thought of that. We've been playing cards in the evening. She also helped with measuing sugar and flour for the cookie baking. I noticed she is back to reading again. So she will sharpen up soon.
I suspect so.
sorry to hear about your mom, bea. I hope she's back to herself soon!
The holidays are tiring and trying for some of the elderly. The disruption of normal routines and schedules can be very difficult. Add to that the stress of isolation and you have a recipe for confusion.
moist
Thanks, lindy and Chris. I just need to keep her actively involved.
Thanks for the clue, Chris. 155 to go and I am blind.
don't forget the ts 5 and 6
there are two ts 5
And with those 3 I greyed out that corner T.
I don't know those ts wo5. any clues?
ts5/12 = ts + lemon***. Add S for ts6/21
Then change last vowel of the ts5
thank you scrabs
they are the 18th letter of the Hebrew alphabet
Ah, I forgot.
I looked them up
Hinky is not in the dictionary. It should be!
I agree - I've tried it several times
bbl
135 left. Maybe I will return tonight.

Good morning, welki.

Orsis, the alternative to bro. Morning Bea. : D
Hello Molly. =)
I was going to say that this grid was pretty well distributed. And then I saw the P.
Oh, dear! Hadnet looked that far down.
pesky Ps
not too bad. got all but 15 Ps.
everyone's favorite pan flute player is in the grid
Mr. Chryssomallis to you
I read that as Merry Chryssomallis : D
me, too, just rolled in here and was like ??
I
:)
I'm not up on pan flute players
79 left here. still need 13 P's
107 left here. I'm going to make coffee. later!
Could I have the stats for the 9 please?
i don't have it, jax
hmm, I saw it called at the flip but can't rem. what it was. I obviously didn't find.
but I'm pretty sure it went with an 8
wo 9/84....related to the wo 8....
I have a wo8 and a si8, but can’t see how I could extend either of them, although I have tried
related, not extended....
Thanks, I’ll go looking again
Are they compound words? I have wo 7 pl . Is that related to the 8 and 9
Not compound. Both have suffixes.
The wo8 isn’t related to the 8
*7
Look for the monster.
that did it - thanks, bea
so not a wo6ist
Thanks Bea
I have 2 TS, any more? just missing one T that I can't find
nm
That’s an iest ending!
yw
bea, the top A was the first gray tile for me somehow.
Not seeing the big wo
NM!
a
I got the wo8. Is the 9 related?
related, but not extended
related, not extended....
I think that's what they said, related but not extended
Got it. Googled words beginning with: wo?? Ah now I get the monster reference!
We had winds of 106 mph last night but thankfully no damage to my house.
Wow! That tornadic here, zooz.
These were more like gusts thank goodness but still a lot of branches around the roads etc. I am surprised my house did not get any damage seeming my roof got damaged last time.
my mom had some really bad winds on Xmas Eve. blew over her patio table and shattered it all over the carport. I told my brother when the snow melts off he needs to check the roof.
Not nice, Hokie. I hope the roof is okay for her.
I keep trying to make tiredness work.
thanks, me too
does the ha8 have a 7 with it? I am missing 2 H's
LOL - my everyday life: trying to make tiredness work!
relatred, carla
Not long started here so I will be of no help for a while sorry, Hokie.
LOL, Retired PJs
related
hmm, I do have 2 ha7s already
One of those 7 is most
Ha4,7,8,5
ok, got the 8, thx
so now who knows what my last H is
could be anything
Ha5/14 maybe.
I would guess ha6.24
I keep seeing the long haired greek music guy in here. NTPN!
bea is correct, now to find it
Got it tha k you, Bea!
Thank*
does it have any related ?
I always think of collider after the word.
aha, thanks
That Name That Proper Noun was already done
What is the answer?
sorry, did not read the earlier chat. it's Yanni
Yanni. Welki did it earler, pan flute player
the person who mentioned they had gotten hacked was it from this site?
oh, I saw some pan flute player talk but didn't realize that was who. LOL
Yes.
ty bzz
I don't know, mlfan. if they did they had used this same password on another site.
Who mentioned they got hacked?
have heard of that happening
Change you password if you are worried.
Get virus protection.
Do not know, Molly. I think Lil Monkey said she got hacked a while a go. Have not read any of the earlier chat.
they can't just break into your computer if you have it set up securely. and yes, they can steal your password from this website if they hack it, so don't use this password anywhere else.
Agreed. You are a sitting duck for any malware or virus without protection of some sort.
Don't open any videos on FB
i just changed my password for this site
Never use FB here.
Facebook is wide open to hackers. No matter what kind of "protection" they assure you.
i always tell my husband to not watch videos.. never listens lol
I do not have a life to put on FB haha! That is how boring mine is!
this site stills says not secure
yes, so don't use this password elsewhere is what that means
That is because it is not secure, Mlf.
This site is not secure. It never has been.
i know its because their is no lock on the address for thi site or h*** at the begining of it
there are http websites and https websites, the s means secured
Is Babble Expert secure?
yes it does
babble expert secure no idea
there are other websites that are just http, but any retail, bank, email, etc. will be https, secure.
I do not do online or even phone banking. I will always go into the bank. Call me old fashioned but that is how I like it.
I found out what happened to my missing packages.
if you are online shopping and are on a website that is not secure, don't enter any credit card or any info
oh, do tell, bea
The tracking sticker that was on the package to MN was on the package that was delivered to KS. Without the tracking info, they will not deliver because that also says postage was paid.
but here you're only entering words and whatever you type in the chat, so don't enter your cc#, SSN, passwords to other sites, etc. into the chat. the biggest issue is to make sure you have a completely unique password here, so that if it is stolen, they can't use it at any other websites you've used it.
I am assuming the other box is the sames way.
so it stuck to it or they stuck it to the wrong one?
They stuc it on the right box, but in moving around it got stuck on the other box.
that stinks
Hopefully, they will send it back here as it is clearly labeled with the address and return address. I have the receipts so I can get them back to the PO and get them sent on their way again.
I'm going to call customer service tomorrow. Me and a million other people.
i believe it was crosshair who mentioned his FB account was hacked and warned hid babble FB friends not to open any videos sent in his name, mlf
Hello, T owl :-)
ok, so FB has nothing to do with this site, unless of course he had the same password as here.
howdy TO!
and some FB "hacks" aren't actually hacks at all, but spoofs. my mom's FB account got spoofed several times. they steal your profile pic and use your name so it looks like it's actually you.
hi guys
Just now getting to the P
good morning all -- there is a way around all the FB problems --- just don't use it at all
Agreed!
I got two fake videos to click on yesterday and deleted them
lol zoom -- wouldnit the world be a nice place without FB and twitter ?!
I had one come in today.
Never used them.

I was like, geez, I had no idea the UK spelling was neithre
dorens, did you receive them in Fb PM?
I have been saying for years that social media will be the downfall of society. I hate being right all the time.
lol
I read a NYT article that likened social media to Armaggedon.
social media is like salt.. just don't use too much
Okay got it under 100 easily enough. Time for a cup of tea and give my eyes a rest. Will go and listen to some music! Bye for now!

add a suffix that is often used for people from a place to the car sound
si not is

wonder what it means. hmmm.
yw...
wo 9 and wo 8 both extend the wo 4 - what this game is all about

WTG

hi cos....nice to see you.....ty....
Hi Cos. Good to see you.
its apparently a greek word related to a goddess.
hi pen :)
hi iiz
ty...
Thanks
moving on for now...
Me too - I've tried so many variations, that I'm sure I'm just repeating them.
same here...
Down to 20 - phew! And that's using the list. Tough going.
an and a body part minus something.
hmmm....ty....thinking....
84 left, cant list.. I have a MacBook now :/. I could list I suppose but not as easy as a PC
Thanks
We love our Macs. Why can't you list on a MacBook? Still copy and paste.
right.. not as easy but I could!
:)
I will do that eventually lol
it's tougher on an iPad because I hate the split screen function there so I flip from one tab to another, which is irritating.
oh wow how did I miss that ok4! lol
right I have an iPad but it was too hard to use on here so I haven't played...
I did too!
I play on my iPad in the evening, while I watch TV
but I did get a keyboard for my iPad.. I might try that out here soon
it works OK with the keyboard but unless you turn off autocorrect, you have to hit enter rather than add word.
oh yuck
it's not so bad....i play sometimes on my iPad with a keybord....you can also turn off the autocorrect....
be back in a few.. gotta check on the chihauauas
I've got used to it. Like I said, I love our Apple products - don't have any PC or android stuff.
True - I just haven't bothered because there are other times, when it's useful.
I have MacBook, iPad, iPhone lol... all not most recent versions but they still work great
i haven't either...
Same here - only I have an iMac - we use the MacBook when we travel - not like that's going to happen again for a while.
Did you get the an pair, Pen?
no...
an 6 - an + repeat the syllable + the old film of the boy with a hawk.
no that's the an7
But the an 6 is the singular
an + foot part minus a letter, then pl?
got it....ty....
yw
Have to admit I used Morewords - then the body part made good sense.
yes...thought it was the body part he suggested, but couldn't make it work....
thank you! I have been trying to remember that site name.. I kept trying someword somewords etc lol
No worries!
cos...there is also A 2 Z....
wordsthatstartwith.org is pretty good I just discovered it
