May I have a hint for that an8, please?

Yeah, I needed morewords for it - not a word with which I am familiar

I'm struggling even to clue it

No - I used morewords.com - I cheated

The definition is either of two South American shrubs belonging to the genus Krameria,

5:55 am

finally got it lol thank you all

Thanks Molly

Of all the ridiculous words included in the Enable list, that is in the top ten. Nan and SMom are going to have apoplexy. : D

6:48 am

Well, at least you did a break down clue for Nan. You know how she is about just definitions of the words...

6:50 am

Definition clues are fine with me. I don't mind doing a Google search on them, and I learn what the word means.

6:50 am

I'm having apoplexy over 24 qu words...

I've only found 15 of those Qs and am not sure if I even care about the rest (right now, anyway)

Have you ever made Pioneer Woman's Comfort meatballs?

9:20 am

9:20 am

They are scrumptious.

9:21 am

She serves hers with mashed potatoes but we like ours with noodles.

9:22 am

24 Q words! Do I know that many?

her website requires a sub now?

9:22 am

i don't... ;o)

I only know 12, scrabbs

9:22 am

I googled that. Will definitely try them, thanks.

9:23 am

It uses quick oats as the binder, Carla. But you do have to roll them in flour before browning them.

9:23 am

I just googled the recipe, Carla. It is on Food network.

went to pinterest to see if I could find a link on there

will check out food network, thanks

9:24 am

See you all toorrow.

bye bea!

9:24 am

bye, bea...

9:24 am

9:25 am

Bye, Biltong.

bye biltong!

9:26 am

wow, well done

9:27 am

bye all...

9:27 am

Bye penquis. Congrats, carla.

oh, I haven't done anything, but thanks

9:27 am

Hello

hi, La Jo

9:28 am

before i leave....someone at the flip said that there are 6 Qu 7 words that start in the same way....

9:28 am

Welcome, La Jo.

9:28 am

hope that proves motivating... ;o)

wow, I have 1 qu7 - 5 more?

9:28 am

Thanks, all

there's 1

9:36 am

q's are done for me now

wow, good job

9:37 am

Wow, Ruru, I am up to 12.

I have made it to 16 but still have 2 more qu7 per pen's clue

and that is 16 qu, 8 remaining. still have 27 total words left.

9:53 am

I have 16 q's now

up to 19 here

if my missing 2 qu7s are part of 6/7 combos, that is 4

9:54 am

i have 4 of them also, one of mine is not in a combo, and i only need 3 more q

9:55 am

and one is in a combo but it is 7/8

9:56 am

*looking*

I feel like I've tried every possible combination of letters with that dratted QU. Clearly I haven't, given I still have 8 to find....

Here comes the list

10:03 am

Good for you, matty.

10:05 am

Qs finally quashed with the help of the list. Phew.

10:05 am

Good work.

10:05 am

erne

10:05 am

Free clue.

10:06 am

what is everyone's favorite sea bird?

10:06 am

(i'm playing it like jeopardy)

10:06 am

I'm a fan of puffins myself. ;)

10:06 am

Puffins are adorable.

10:06 am

puffins are very cute

10:07 am

Penguins are mine

10:07 am

Also very cute.

10:08 am

I like puffins and penguins

10:08 am

i wonder how weird it would be if you went on jeopardy and you actually asked the questions as if you were asking the question, instead of the sort of weird way they say it

10:08 am

4th row gray!

10:08 am

like imagine the emphasis if you were saying "what is a puffin?" as an actual question vs as a jeopardy response, it's quite different

10:09 am

just a's now for me

10:10 am

Yes, I think of that too, hurshy.

10:10 am

what is the 9?

10:10 am

missing an a 7

10:11 am

got it.

10:11 am

:D

10:11 am

I need help with the i. Obvious?

10:11 am

i only have the valued old thing and i suppose it is not that or you would miss 7 and 8 both

10:11 am

one of the i is something you're born with

10:12 am

(an adj that describes it i mean)

10:12 am

Aha. I already had en5.

10:12 am

My monkeys are working overtime

10:12 am

hope you're paying them extra then

10:13 am

Plenty of peanuts!

10:13 am

Extra fruit for them.

10:14 am

what does the 9 start with?

10:14 am

RH, would you believe? It's a type of shrub, apparently

10:14 am

oh dear

10:15 am

SCRABS! I'm so glad you are hear! I had the sweetest dream last night! I had like 14 little bunnies in my care and I was trying to decide which one to keep! They were all so cute!

10:15 am

thank goodness for morewords

10:15 am

Good day everyone!

10:15 am

same to you car

10:16 am

an8 and qu8, what is the other 8?

10:18 am

ra8

10:18 am

mk thanks :)

10:18 am

pretty much the rh9

10:19 am

see if you had gotten the ra8 first, you wouldn't have needed morewords for hte 9

10:19 am

ah, ha! that makes sense

10:19 am

18 left, and 8 of them are 7s, lol

10:20 am

23 left here - 3x4, 3x5, 4x6, 12x7, 1x8. guess I should work on an8.

10:20 am

is it against something?

10:20 am

it is a normal word (plural, combo with 7)

10:20 am

I am against A words, I'll tell you that

10:21 am

no, no prefix

10:22 am

duh

10:22 am

Can I have a wee nudgette on the re7, please?

10:23 am

that is the set bea was telling me about earlier

10:23 am

I still need 3 RE, so that must be one. sorry I can't help.

10:24 am

I knew someone named Renita back home. not a word, JIC you were wondering.

10:24 am

65 left for later. Good luck finishing, everyone.

10:25 am

bye,scrabs!

10:26 am

and if you're raising in poker, isn't that a re6?

10:26 am

no, because the an4 is just the part you pay to play in that hand

10:26 am

the rest of the raises are not

10:27 am

the re7 is the only re that i need so it is not in a combo

10:27 am

they are the raise, I get it! just complaining about enable like we like to do every day

10:28 am

have a guess for my missing R on the bottom?

10:28 am

i am missing one there also :(

10:28 am

or my bottom row H?

10:29 am

he4/6 that is a plural perhaps?

10:29 am

well, it was that, but I entered that earlier. :<

10:30 am

have you finished P? (tee hee)

10:30 am

no, need one of them

10:30 am

same

10:30 am

how about the N? I need one

10:30 am

re7... the end part makes me think of nose stuff

10:31 am

2 na, both babblets... 3 ne and 3 ni

10:31 am

of course, the other ni spelling

10:32 am

re7 ending is like an enzyme, too, maybe that is what it is

10:32 am

yes, it is an enzyme!

10:32 am

18 - P AAA RRR Qx5 TTT SSS - 2x4, 2x5, 4x6, 10x7

10:33 am

thx for the R

10:33 am

don't you just love it when you can figure things out even though you didn't know them?

10:33 am

I don't like having 10 7s left

10:34 am

yes, hurshy, it's like light bulb! if you do reddit, you should check out the etymology sub. some interesting things.

10:34 am

mk cool

10:37 am

managed another q

10:38 am

i went to the list at 16 left

10:38 am

oh yeah, just remembered 2 of my 7s are SH, and I think I have at least one more q7

10:39 am

NTPN! captain kirk

10:39 am

james tiberius...

10:39 am

oh shatner

10:39 am

ding ding ding

10:40 am

but not the sh7s I was looking for

10:40 am

i was like "james and tiberius are not in the grid!! what??"

10:40 am

not the droids you're looking for either

10:41 am

wrong star franchise!

10:42 am

I believe I will have to list too. still 17 left.

10:43 am

well i like both franchises, sorry

10:43 am

started at the bottom - baffled by my 3 missing Ts.

10:45 am

a tapeworm babblet that uses lots of vowels, and has both latin and english plural

10:45 am

equally baffled by those sh7s

10:46 am

sh7/40 is an odd spelling of a small shack or a sailor song

10:46 am

thanks dan, tapeworm didn't help, but lots of vowels stirred something in my memory

10:46 am

that's the only one I have, hurshy!

10:47 am

I wonder if there are Scotch tapeworms?

10:47 am

ah, there's the first one I should have gotten

10:47 am

the other two remind me of a wheat based food, but with sh instead of just s

10:47 am

they are almost identical

10:48 am

sa5 is what I'm referring to

10:48 am

hmm, so many wheat based foods I'm having trouble narrowing it down

10:49 am

doh, there's 2 R's I should have gotten

10:49 am

and my last one on the bottom was a 4 babblet. duh.

10:49 am

se7 redwood relative

10:50 am

I have that, mine are both sh7

10:50 am

oh sorry

10:50 am

np

10:51 am

I will just look them up if I need to after going through the whole list.

10:51 am

maybe a silent redwood hokie :D

10:51 am

shhh

10:53 am

an 7/28, first one, pls

10:55 am

an + the n babblet that looks like a plural man's name

10:58 am

just looked up the first sh7 - funny how the def includes the word that isn't on enable

10:58 am

and now sure how that is a wheat based food LOL

10:58 am

not

11:00 am

ok, I am done. moving on with my day. now that it's noon.

11:03 am

ty carla

11:08 am

11:11 am

e4/4

11:12 am

e what?

11:12 am

11:13 am

jax how about the h in the same column

11:13 am

11:14 am

ha5/14 i think

11:15 am

11:22 am

11:23 am

e4/4

11:23 am

i have 8 e words to find

11:24 am

snap

11:25 am

and just by looking at the grid not many ideas lol

11:25 am

I'm gradually picking words off. 55 to go

11:25 am

lucky you

11:28 am

LO 6/24 clue pls?

11:29 am

I did start just after the flip this morning and have just come back for another go while my husband is watching sport

11:29 am

good morning everyone :-)

11:29 am

good morning cyber

11:29 am

jax i started about two hrs ago took a break and then came back

11:32 am

stuck on the last sh 7/32 ??

11:33 am

just read the chat -- don't have any sh 7's -- was that wheat based clue for an sh 7? Only thing I can think of is bread

11:34 am

i dont have any sh 7 letter words.. i oly have two sh words

11:34 am

i will be back...

11:34 am

oh found the devil, but nothing wheat based

11:36 am

and the alt. sp for that

11:36 am

never mind... monkeyed it

11:41 am

is the 2nd po7 also ballet-related?

11:41 am

never mind, peri'ed it

11:42 am

I thought so, but can't find it

11:43 am

it's apparently horse armor?

11:43 am

ends in the top right corner

11:44 am

so my missing pis a 7 that means horse armor -- the likelyhood of me finding that is about nil :)

11:44 am

so my missing pis a 7 that means horse armor -- the likelyhood of me finding that is about nil :)

11:46 am

points in the po 7 horse gear please?

11:47 am

nm - monkeyed it

11:47 am

ty for the clue dan

11:47 am

just looking for that one too, nan

11:48 am

any of you clever people know what my missing l is?

11:49 am

I really wish I could have a balcony in the sun -- colder than you know what today

11:50 am

I'm missing one L. I have le4, le5,le4,lo4 and lo6

11:51 am

lo4

11:51 am

Can't get the horse armor

11:52 am

another le 4

11:52 am

so, 2xlo4, Jax?

11:52 am

I have all the right hand ones -- missing one from the left corner

11:53 am

yes

11:53 am

yes - there are two lo 4

11:53 am

ty :)

11:54 am

lo 4,5,6,4

11:54 am

sorry lo 4,6,5,4

11:55 am

is there an la?

11:55 am

no la, nan

11:56 am

i have lo 4,4,6 and missing 2

11:56 am

so I'm missing an lo then

11:57 am

and i'm missing alo5,4

11:57 am

there is an lo 5

11:57 am

I have le4, le5,le4,lo4 and lo6. Missing lo4

11:57 am

LO 4,6,5,4,6

11:57 am

lo5

11:57 am

maybe lo627, nan?

11:58 am

6/27, that is

11:58 am

Thanks, got all of the l's now

11:58 am

yes! - looking now

11:59 am

yay, me too :)

12:00 pm

need a clue, nan? I have to leave soon

12:00 pm

hope you search proves fruitful

12:00 pm

plaa

12:01 pm

whoops sorry

12:01 pm

Ha ha mool :)

12:01 pm

:)

12:01 pm

no so far mool -- can't think of a fruit that fits the bill

12:02 pm

at least you got the clue :)

12:02 pm

certainly nothing we grow around here

12:02 pm

sorry, have to go

12:03 pm

I'm going to need another -- only one I can think of is a lemon

12:03 pm

I had them in NZ, but they're more a sub tropical fruit

12:03 pm

i'd not heard that beginning on a fruit, but had heard of the ending on a fruit

12:04 pm

we had them in Miami

12:04 pm

yes, was going to say there is a c fruit

12:04 pm

then definitely something I have never seen

12:04 pm

k fruit that has the same ending

12:04 pm

cherries?

12:04 pm

doh

12:05 pm

More citrus.

12:05 pm

spelling of weird fruits is not my forte

12:05 pm

oh come come come, it's not like it's that difficult :)

12:05 pm

lemons, limes, grapefruit, oranges - don't know any others that I would call citrus

12:06 pm

anyway, you're more of an obscure armor specialist

12:06 pm

the l fruit is not citrus

12:06 pm

the k fruit which has the same ending as the l fruit is citrus, and you eat the skin and all

12:06 pm

the l fruit is an unknown - there must be a clue other than a definition

12:07 pm

has the high point tile in it

12:07 pm

not a kiwi then

12:08 pm

there is an adj that might be used to describe me that looks like a derivative, though it's not

12:08 pm

There is a clue in the chat that gives the species name if you want to go looking

12:09 pm

ah, found the nine

12:10 pm

well, that's certainly impressive

12:11 pm

this grid is very plant heavy

12:11 pm

giving up on that stupid fruit --- have no idea - tried every combo with the q tha I could come up with

12:11 pm

stats for the 9 please?

12:11 pm

rh9

12:12 pm

nan there's a clue at about 8.30 in the chat

12:12 pm

20 to go

12:12 pm

only made it to 17 today. used quite a few clues and even had to look up some.

12:14 pm

japonica? didn't know their was another name for that

12:15 pm

Japonica is species that originate in SIA.

12:15 pm

rh9 is Krameria

12:15 pm

Asia

12:15 pm

anyway - going to list now --- I think I've found all the english words

12:15 pm

15 to go, finished my 8s

12:15 pm

what the hek is krameria?

12:16 pm

south african shrub, what is japonica?

12:16 pm

Lo6 is English

12:16 pm

how many plants in today's grid, bea?

12:17 pm

several

12:17 pm

if you live in Miami or New Zealand and eat strange fruit, apparently

12:18 pm

I think they're delicious :)

12:18 pm

oh, the lo6 is japonica

12:19 pm

I'm gone again. Just got on my computer to look for something on Amazon. Not sure that is English either. <evil grin>

12:19 pm

bye bea. I am finished with lunch so I guess I'll get back to work too.

12:20 pm

just need a moo update...

12:21 pm

an 7 please?

12:21 pm

still 15... 4x4, 2x5, 4x6 and 5x7 to go

12:21 pm

very old

12:21 pm

-- not the old things - have those

12:21 pm

yes, collectibly old

12:21 pm

an + the babblet that looks like plural man's name that has no singular

12:21 pm

oh, the spears

12:21 pm

I've not got it

12:22 pm

it's an anagram of a queen of russia and also anagram of hand made

12:22 pm

something to do with the pope per the dictionary

12:23 pm

apparently poison tipped arrow, not spear :0

12:23 pm

the britneys moo?

12:23 pm

never mind then

12:23 pm

btw, we are clueing 2 different an7's, nan

12:26 pm

ok - found the one with the man's name

12:26 pm

looking for the against one now

12:27 pm

found - ty

12:34 pm

monkeyed the lo 6 finally - have never heard of it before -- will have to see if I can find a picture later

12:35 pm

yeah, in nz we pronounce the last syllable "kit"

12:35 pm

10 to go here

12:36 pm

do you now get the k word with the same ending?

12:44 pm

yes, carla - but just something I've heard of - not anything I've ever eaten or seen in our markets

12:44 pm

aren't they some kind of berry?

12:44 pm

very small citrus fruit

12:45 pm

they kind of look like berries, and you eat the whole thing...but citrus

12:45 pm

I guess they don't store or travel well -- otherwise you'd think they would be available here

12:46 pm

Not sure they have wide appeal

12:46 pm

are you talking about the ku or the lo, now?

12:47 pm

Have seen them here in Colorado occasionally

12:47 pm

the ku

12:47 pm

the lo don't travel well

12:48 pm

Actually, they may travel well, but not sure there is much commercial cultivation

12:48 pm

I will have to look for the lo, the next time we go to CA --- that is if we are ever allowed to travel again!

12:49 pm

still 8 to go

12:49 pm

the lo is new to me too

12:50 pm

let's see the stats, moo

12:50 pm

You see them in Italy too, where they a re called nespole. They are about the size of a small apricot and have three round black seeds inside. I think they are mainly eaten by those with a tree in their yard, since they are too soft to travel well. They make good jam, though.

12:50 pm

12 here and have just found that there is yet another sh 7 --- sh 7/40 this time

12:50 pm

yeah, I've only had them off the tree

12:51 pm

that one is fairly easy, nan, it was the other 2 I had to look up

12:51 pm

I have 2 sh7 that are spelled almost the same

12:51 pm

yeah, those are the 2 I had to look up

12:51 pm

ooh - I would much rather travel to Italy to taste them, but I don't think that is ever going to happen again

12:51 pm

For whatever reason, I can't scroll my word list down :)

12:52 pm

nan, have you heard of pawpaws? we have talked about them here before.

12:52 pm

Not that I remember, carla

12:52 pm

lot of odd fruit in Miami

12:53 pm

I want to try that. I planted 3 trees last year but they are tiny

12:53 pm

closest I have ever been to Miami was the Kennedy Space Centre and that was with 3 little kids in tow.

12:54 pm

they are native to NA and don't travel well, which is why they never made it to market. supposedly tastes like a mix between a mango and banana.

12:54 pm

I've driven past the space coast many times, never went to the Kennedy Space Center though

12:54 pm

we flew to Miami once to drive to the Keys

12:54 pm

is the sh 7/40 similar to the 7/32's?

12:54 pm

and spent some time in Hollywood, FL

12:54 pm

nope

12:55 pm

no, but it's a homophone for a sh6

12:56 pm

the dictionary link tells you it's a variation of another word which when you click that link says it is a variation of the way I'm familiar with the word

12:56 pm

never seen it spelled ch, so not sure why it directs you to that one first

12:56 pm

It was amazing, mool --- mind you, it has probably changed since we were there in 1978

12:57 pm

yeah, it's an iconic place...my MIL lives in St Augustine, about 2 hours or so north of there

12:58 pm

oh - we were in St. Augustine -- huge spanish fort and Ripley's?

12:58 pm

St. Aug is nice

12:58 pm

yep

12:58 pm

we drove by the fort a couple of years ago and couldn't find parking so then left

12:59 pm

yeah, it's kind of awkward getting parking there

12:59 pm

but we accidentally discovered the fountain of youth on our way to the fort and stopped there and then decided we didn't want to spend that much on tickets to go look at a well

12:59 pm

you should tell Ponce de Leon next time you see him :)

1:00 pm

6 to go

yeah, he should be still alive and young

1:00 pm

5 to go

1:00 pm

a clue for the sh 7/40 please?

1:00 pm

4x7 and a 6

an old run down building

and T's moo?

1:01 pm

isn't that an sh 6?

*any

nan, that's where the whole spelling variation thing comes in to play

1:02 pm

oh - I see - another alt. sp

1:02 pm

ty carla

1:02 pm

A,A,P,R and S

1:02 pm

found the r

r7?

1:03 pm

yeah

I had to look up that P

no def

1:03 pm

enzyme of some sort is my guess

1:04 pm

yep, found in stomachs

you're talking about the R?

1:05 pm

yeah

1:06 pm

found the 6

1:06 pm

3 to go...all 7s...A,P,S

1:07 pm

anyone want to try a breakdown clue for that rh 7, or should I just forget it?

if you have ra8, it is almost identical

if you meant rh9, since there isn't an rh7

1:09 pm

rh9....sounds as if you made word for wicker into an adjective, then made it plural...then added a letter :)

1:10 pm

ty mool - similar to the ra 8 :)

1:10 pm

yeah..if you have that one :D

wow, if only someone had suggested that ;)

1:11 pm

*!*~*!* not a friendly grid today. Off to find a picture of lo 7, then to make brunch. Hagd everyone and stay safe :-)

1:12 pm

I know, would have been so much easier

fairly friendly I thought. plant heavy like I said. (hint hint)

1:13 pm

*lo6

and I just googled the one I said doesn't have a def and it made me LOL, but if I tell you why, it'll probably give it away

and I clued the one while you were clueing another but you must've been magically ignoring like you can, moo

1:15 pm

no, I saw it :)

1:15 pm

the popery one

oh, I'm assuming that's your a7 since you mentioned the other 2

1:16 pm

yeah

and the P7 is the funny one to me, and the S7 you should get, it's a regular word (in my book at least)

1:22 pm

ah, the equal shortest word with all the vowels

1:29 pm

aniolae

you lost me there

I JUST REMEMBERED IT'S PUPPY BOWL TIME

Isn't that tomorrow at haltime?

LOL, was just sitting over there and I was like, wait, today's Saturday. but it is on Discovery+.

2:23 pm

winston wanting to roll around in stinky stuff is in6

2:40 pm

I found the s

2:41 pm

shortest word that contains all the vowels...well shortest equal

2:41 pm

miaoued being the other one

ah, now I see what you were saying. didn't know what aniolae had to do with anything but now I'm guessing you forgot to move your cursor.

2:43 pm

yep

2:45 pm

found the a

awesome

2:48 pm

hello, how it the grid?

2:49 pm

found a sea eagle

2:50 pm

toughish

2:51 pm

found the volcano poker pair

2:51 pm

sounds like an explosive bet

not a bluff for sure

2:52 pm

or maybe a call-dera

wah wah wahhhh

2:54 pm

lol I think I'll use that one

2:58 pm

43 words and I'm stuck

3:10 pm

Still don't see the in6 :-(

3:11 pm

Babble blind :-(

3:20 pm

3:31 pm

oh no

3:57 pm

all i know is they are pretty expensive. so no one has the sh 7 32

and there are 2 sh7/32's, they are almost identical except for a vowel in the middle

the first one looks like the devil with 2 extra letters

4:00 pm

4:55 pm

re & Indian skin dyes less the h & vwl

4:58 pm

should I say Indian decorative skin dyes, also used as hair coloring/conditioner

5:00 pm

lynxxx are we dropping the h then adding a vowel or dropping the he from said dye

5:01 pm

drop the h - use the rest (noting I clued plural) - then add a vowel

5:05 pm

6:02 pm

I think it's ancient slang

6:02 pm

we're very picky about our slang on enable

6:03 pm

6:04 pm

otherwise what fun would it be

6:04 pm

6:06 pm

6:49 pm

really not in the head space today

6:50 pm

i got lucky with those clues. just up after returning to bed. another bad night i had. *sigh*

6:50 pm

oh i am sorry to hear. not sleeping is the worst

6:52 pm

at least i have the time to allow for naps during the day most days. i'm just in a vicious sleep cycle at the moment. if i try and stay up i become over-tired which is just as bad.

6:53 pm

agreed. have you tried the usual - melatonin, benadryl, etc?

6:54 pm

melatonin yes. benedryl no because of hypertension.

6:54 pm

sigh. sleep is so important. I cannot remember the last time I slept through the night, but mine is 100% due to sister mary menopause.

6:55 pm

i could take a valium and emdone but i try to save them for a "that's it. i can't take it any more" day/night.

6:56 pm

I send you all good wishes and sleepy vibes for tonight, then

6:57 pm

thanx trif. not just yet though if you please. time for church and the the congergation has a meeting with our bishop. our vicar is retiring and we have to voce how we see our next vicar.

6:58 pm

oh wow - those meetings are always interesting. we had to have our yearly one via google, of course....ugh

6:58 pm

oh dear heaven !! *congregation* *voice*

6:59 pm

we just had our AGM. very late, but cv-19 stopped us from meeting at the right time.

6:59 pm

lol, I understood you!

7:00 pm

and as most of our congregation are 80+, no computers or tablet devices owned.

7:00 pm

we were in shut down still, so no choice

7:01 pm

my church has yet to resume live services, actually - we are far behind you all

7:02 pm

we are only allowed 20 inside. so the vicar is holding multiple services through the day which is nice as far as i'm concerned. i can have my morning nap and church too.

7:02 pm

oh that is nice.

7:03 pm

and we are allowed to sing, with masks in situ.

7:03 pm

very cool!

7:04 pm

trif honey. i got to go. lunch coming and then this lazy bag of bones goes into the shower. enjoy the rest of you day/evening. see you after the flip. xx

7:05 pm

that's okay, I am going too. Giving up on this mean ol grid. Have a wonderful day, dear granny rose

11:19 pm

Can I please have a clue for the first an7/20 word please

11:22 pm

H's Handled! 8 left

11:29 pm

an7/28 womans name + past tense of eat and plural letter

11:31 pm

A's Administered! 6 left

11:32 pm

Thank you ursh. How about the third qu6/27 word please

11:33 pm

same as first qu6 diff cons ending

11:33 pm

actually plural

11:38 pm

I just changed first qu6/27 word with every consonant at the end and nothing worked. Am I changing cross letter at the end of first qu6/27 to a different consonant ursh

11:40 pm

they all build off the qu5/16 which with an s would be cross eyed - add a vowel to qu5 then add difference cons to that word

11:40 pm

*different consonants

11:44 pm

Thank U ursh. I just don't have the patience for this right now. I am giving up with four words left. Been doing this off and on all day today. Thanks again ursh.Appreciate it

11:53 pm

cutting it fine fireworks here

11:55 pm
