Hello all
howdy
sn8
a in the second column.. I can't get 1/2 way on that one!
m9f9l, it's a nasty grid. like looking for hen's teeth.
I'm seeing that! I did get nbs and nbt but I think it's going to be rough from here on out.
Bingo top row!
well done.
thank you :)
still stuck on that a
Easy grid! Leaves lot of time for writing and gardening later.
*blows raspberries at Jacula* of course it's easy for a walking, talking, breathing, dictionary....loll
Have you ever used ab8 in normal day communication?
Wow! I monkeyed one so now I'm 1/2 way on all tiles :)
The monkeyed one means "regular alternation in the internal phonological structure of a word element, especially alternation of a vowel, that is coordinated with a change in grammatical function or combination"
anise ansa
apse arbs
baps barn
ARB - you're in the wrong box!
FW - tough grid - some really strange words
grannyrose - ROFLOL!
*typing words like a maniac* A big grid, yay!
155 found and off to work now.
May I have a nudge on the ve6 please?
NM - found it!
Clue please?
ve6 is a wasp. Ends in Freud term
Thanks!
yw
Wow! tough grid - cancel my appointments!
Earlier, someone said it was easy. I beg to differ.
I thought yesterdays was difficult.
I think most of them are difficult, considering the obscure words that Enable allows. But I am not the word genius that some who play here are.
Good morning, all. 169 words left, only one box blacked out.
Morning! :-)
32 7s ! Mornin, all
Yeah, this one isn't going to get finished today. But then I say that every day.
just found a weird AP 7/8, thx to the list
Two boxes blacked out. Only 138 to go.
Expect no gratification from this grid.
woot, got the 9
Obscure monetary unit - yeeesh
Just to be clear, the 9 is not an obscure monetary unit. Didn't want people scratching their heads.
your right - I should have checked the chat first
sorry, i don't normally get the big words so early
Hi, Shir - That word looks like it needs another T
english is so weird

i started before you cyber :)
85 left from last night but not seeing anything new yet
is the 9 a compound word>
yes - I crashed last night too early for babble
no idea, mlfan
hi hokie
9 is a pt
ah, didn't realize that was a verb
thanks, shirl
neither did I carla, but I'm learning to try anything and everything
helps to have the root too which I couldn't find last night. so now I've found exactly 2 words this morning.
i knew it was a verb e.g, when the planet made a "pass" thru another orbit etc
phantom for the day is arbutus
what does the 9 begin with?
tr
a 7-9 combo, ru
got it.. thanks
was just going to say that someone who hires a seaplane to get from Victoria to Salt Spring, probably never uses it :D
I'm into adventures nan.. it was fun
going on the try everything, just gave me two more words ... slow slow going
yeah, have I mentioned I don't like today's grid?
hiya folks
you are not alone carla
hi hurshy
78 now, so I've found 7 words in about 25 min
we're tied hokie
hurshy, how do you feel about today's grid?
ok so far
ccan't even grey the top row -- need one t and 2 c's
only on second row
i need one C and one V for top row
I need 4 c's and 1 v. have literally tried everything I can think of for both.
for your T perhaps you need an adj relating to fallopian things... tu5 ligation can help prevent pregnancies
i just greyed it! again on the try everything premise
so far i have 3 ce and 5 ch if that helps hokie
ty hurshy
there are 6 ch
ty shirl
got it
do you have the ve 5 or ve 6 carla?
ok, only have 5 ch
phantom: vestibule
there's a ve6?
I have ve5, but not 6
there is a ve6, it's a wasp
phantom absinth
ty
ve 6 was clued earlier - ends in a freudian term
thanks, kept trying stuff with the first syllable
have ch 6, must be three ce's
yep 3 ce
yeah, hurshy already said she had 3 ce's but I still can't get any
just have one
a 4 and two 5s
ty - found a plural
the c's are pretty straightforward
detub = install a shower or get out of the bath
hunting for that missing ce 5
no they're not
have the money
just found ce4/5, never seen
oh, ghanian money you say
you so have, we have had those babblets lots
I still need the other ce5 and a ch. have a treasure holder and 2 other sets
in the 5/6 set you can make a past tense too hokie
ah, another stupid pt, thx
yeah just like the instrument
your missing v is sort of waspy hursh
yep
yeah we already covered that ruru lol
shirl is on the ball here
so what is my missing ce 5 please?
points for that ce5?
darn, i know there are ablutions but apparently it does not come from ablute
ce5/12
hi babblers
ha! you said that last time hurshy because I had never heard of ablutions
hey welki
ty hurshy
ablutions = washings, cleanings, as of the face
well now I know
it is too bad because i need so many A words!!
finally top row gray
I need 4 from first 2 col A and 3 from 4th col
phantom : tubular
i need 7 just from the first column
I do have 7 ab so far
my phantom is absinthe
totally, ruru
ok got 6 of those ab
I would say ablution is kind of an archaic word
yes, well, i like old books
and there are the AL kinda like dumbledore's name
there are 6 abs?
no hokie said she has 7, i just only have 6
I have ab x7
I have 7 so far but still need A's so there could be more, shirl
there are 11 ab's
GOOD GRIEF!
well, I guess that's my missing 4 A's from there, unless some come from the other
mine too!
hmmm 11 abs, so i need 4 more ...
oHO got one that is ab8
related to any others?
no, related to phantoms though
related to the drink or to the tree?
oh no, the tree is an ar
related to things that grate and are harsh and wear away at things
oh, just found a pt 7 on the one that the 6 isn't a word
i have an ab7 that is related to the phantom
yeah, that's the ab7 i have, hokie, need the 8
thanks hokie
yeah the 8 is a different root
well, I know the root but not able to make it an 8. hmm
end with picnic pest
does the 9 begin with tr** door?
wow, that's an odd ab8
yes mlf, the 9 is a tr
no, mlf, not door
ty hurshy
aha, thanks
still need ab x2
got it!
so say we all
so say we all
so yeah it seems like the grid gets harder once you hit the third row
phantom pastiche
yeah, I still have 67 left and it's going at the pace of I'm down to 10
haven't finished the 2nd row yet
well i haven't FINISHED it but i only need 2 Ts so that's not BAD
still need 3L, 3T, and 1 T for 2nd row
you're ahead of me - have more t's to find
any guesses on my L's?
I have one LA and the rest LU
la5doodle is a mixed breed
ah, had that fixed in my shoulder
ty - one more l now
found - pt instrument
dang, I have that
hokie you may need lu6&7
I do not have a 7, so prob so
points on the 6?
21
aha, thanks
now the 2 a's that I assume are AB left in the 1st col
yeah we all seem to not have those
yeah
did you find all the t's carla?
no, still need 3 + 1
I have those
but I dropped down to bottom row
the T's or the AB's, molly?
The a words
and do you know which 2 we need?
anyone else try tinpan? why do I always try that?
i tried it yes
tin pan alley
guess it's just separate
I guess
found 2 T's!, now need 1 from each 2nd row T
down to 2 and 2 now
phantom traipse
enough of this -- 100 to go, but listing. Daughter arriving for a 3 day visit this afternoon, so have a few things to do.
have a lovely visit
we'll probably talk non-stop --- haven't seen each other for 2 years thanks to covid
phantom thespian
there are two ab 6-7's -- but even with the list, I don't see the other one
well the 6 and 7 we discussed earlier were not related
i dont have either
oops - scratch that -- the ab 6-7 is what we are missing
maybe these aren't either - one follows the other though
i got a ab 6/7 from an earlier clued didnt know what it was for but copy/paste into google and the word came up
There is an ab6, then an ab6 ab7 then another ab6
clue please, mlf?
regular alternation in the internal phonological structure of a word element, especially alternation of a vowel, that is coordinated with a change in grammatical function or combination
Wait,that is wrong. Ab6, ab6, aby7, ab7
put that in google
oh - was looking for a clue, not a def
the 7 is a pl
but, ok, but those do not come from the left so i guess something ELSE is our last two there
cyber ends in don*** as in a rouond pastry with a hole in the mdidle
ty mlf
yw sorry it was so vague
ap 7-8 please?
Sounds like what makes you hungry, but misspelled
ar 6-7 -- similar to the tree that loses it's bark
ty molly
trying to think of a tree that loses its bark
you see them all over the lower mainland and Vancouver Island
when we were camping a couple of weeks ago there was a tree that was dropping big pieces all over. the people next to us said it was a sycamore but it didn't look like I was thinking it would
no not a sycamore
We have a place named that in Maryland
never been there cyber
The A tree word
there is a street named that in Vancouver
oh, I associated with denver I think
not denver, but CO
I even said it was my phantom when I first signed on :)
and associated = associate it. not sure how that happened
wait, what am I looking for?
an ar word that is a tree that loses its bark or the ar word sounds like it i am not sure either
ok, must have the wrong A tree then because can't see how to make that possible
It is an ar word that SOUNDS like the tree word
the ar 6-7 that comes from the first col. a is the one I'm talking about
they're beautiful trees really
what is the points on the ar6?
first or last column ar?
she said first col
ah
6/27 and 7/40
got the other ar 6/7
the 7 is pl
32 left is as far as I go I guess.
that's pretty good, still 51 here
what does the ar6/27 actually mean?
I'm back for 136.
bea!
no def in the game dictionary, carla
off for breakfast
ah, just monkeyed it
def. had the wrong tree in mind
thought we were talking about aspen which is a phantom for me
My mom is in pumping iron. =)
nice
hokie the is a strawberry tree or that is at least the first thing i saw in google
in case y'all are wondering, you can't make pansy a past tense
hahaa...tried that too
that one makes as much sense as the others
true
still so many P's. 12 + 1
Haven't even started on those...
Still on third row.
I am down to 1 A on the bottom, bea, with much help from the village
(of the As)
absinthe is my phantom today.
*Passes the bottle of absinthe
I still need 6 A's...
aspartite: the mineral from which we mine nutrasweet
lol
Got all the A's except one from the first column.
I am missing 10 As. TEN.
any against words besides the 2 small ones?
no
well, harry I was missing more than that but the hive mind found them
You are probably missing ab's, Harry
aha, my last A was a4
I have 5 ab
yes, harry, 11 ABs
but I have to go pick up kid now anyway.
yikes 11!
ok. that's for later.
now just 5(!) i's to finish 4th col
The term "hive mind" gives me the eebie-geebies
enry iggins
found another i finally
hello....
howdy pen!
hey, carla...
Finally found my last A.
awesome
i am envious...
hello all
hey peri

hi peri...
41 left here
4 B's and 6 S's
75
and then 31 other words
71 and struggling
one can make some interesting compound words here....
oh... just found some interesting b's
I think i need to list soon.. this is dragging on too long for me
I'm just in and out, looking for words for a second and hoping someone asks for a clue in the chat 🤣
that's a strategy.... ;o)
I am hoping the same thing. need help with 7's and 8's
only have about half of each so far...
I have 3 of the 8's and 10 of the 7's
I have tr9 but not tr8 help please
tr8 ends like the bug word
nm found tr8
ty ursh
meant ty hursh
da 8/50 "kids say the da 8/50 things"
ty Luv
:O
yw, still a long way to finsih for me - 122
115 left here
strategy worked, got 2 new 8s
ra 8/45 the most horny lol
there is an na 8 and ra 8 with the same endings....
stuck at 64 left....going to take a break....and a sn 8 and a st 8 that are spelled almost the same.....
already had both those
bbl....bye...
I mean I had the ra and na8s, not the s8's. will look. bye
oh, I did have the st8
but now got the sn8 and sn6
in 6/27 = in + part of what Yogi Bear used to say
"I'm smarter than the av-er-age bear!"
I thought Fred Flinstone used that word?
pic a nic basket
Fred Flintstone said the one that starts with Yabba
na 6/24?
... british diapers
ty!
Who knows, maybe all Hanna Barbara characters sound alike to some folks
... there were only about three people doing all the voices
I have no idea on the actual word
oh, diapers, ta!
And yet Yogi and Fred did not have the same person doing their voice. Carla, it is the in6 that you said you had that part of your shoulder worked on
ooh, diaper got me three! thanks!
Oops, no that was the la6. It's in + the middle of what Fred said
weird thanks
how odd, thanks molly
Some word for a South African conference. This grid is full of weird ones.
huh, from Zulu via SA English. neat. thanks again, molly.
now just 2 i's left
Dumbledore
so many weird words!
are there any BL words?
I still need 4 B's but have no BL
There are no BL words
ty
I think one B was a Halle Berry movie, but the actual def is a british roll.
having to know the name of every friggin coin of every country is getting to be a pain in the ass. thks game is not fun any more.
That doesn't seem logical to me. You're implying that this game USED to be fun, but the name of every friggin coin of every country has ALWAYS been in the dictionary.
Also, I can think of a very, very easy solution to the problem of playing a game that is not fun.
need the 3rd pa 6/24?
Hi all. Any clues for the 9? And stat please. Ty.
tr9 - if you rode a bus or subway maybe you tr9 (pt of a noun that I guess can be a verb)
tr 9 past tense of the tr 6 before it
thanks friends for letting an old lady vent an not being a bitch about it
tr9
the 3rd one I have macca, is glued, but prob not the one you need
my 2nd one is a catholic
maybe that one and I need another before it
Ty for tr. got it.
I could use a clue for any 8 out there please. Ty.
sewed
told on
or told on someone
both of those start with S
carla and I think alike
Uis that a clue???????
yes, sewed is st8 and told on is sn8
Please send me a stat if you send a clue. Ty.
you know sn* get st* (both starred words are not in grid but the roots are)
If anyone has a stat for an 8 and a clue i would love it. Ty.
we literally just did. "sewed is st8 and told on is sn8"
Oh ok.
Ty got them and the present tense./ ty
I'm having an impossible time with the A's. Is it my imagination or are they all hiding?
no, they are bad
11 AB's
It was hard. I only have 4 so far.
i have 12A words with 129 total to go.
I have finished A's if y'all need specific help
maybe later...I'm still plodding my way through the tiles.
but I'm impressed that you have all the As
35 left - T T B4 S4 i2 D3 P10 T3 P D3 R3. I recall even ru declared himself as far as he could go at 31 left, so I don't have much hope.
the A's were a group effort earlier today if you want to go back in the chat
I will, thanks carla. I usually do that after I go thru the tiles twice.
back to work here. downsizing my crap and putting a bunch of stuff on ebay.
carla
TO!
20 to half way and i am done.
i am cleaning as well
no cleaning for me today
just did the Ps; that was fun.
i say that most days...
But do you really clean every day, Owl?
watered the lawn, went for a bike ride, made lunch and i think i'm done - maybe a load of laundry later, but not feeling it *lol*
;)
the utility is out there diggig up the lawn. it
81F. with equal humidity
Half way finally. Whew.
ablute is in merriam-webster. apparently not in enable.
ablution is a word.
the past form is in the grid, and in ENABLE
thanks, TO
why not the other forms? why? why? *headdesk*
agreed with you
why thank me?
i'd not have tried any form had you not mentioned it.
oh
i still need90, too soon to list.
apparently there ae 3 more ab words.
there's AB8 that sounds like maybe pavement if it skins your knee
and there's an AB6/7 set, the 6 ends the same as a UM word that is the two dots over certain german letters
ok ty gtg
Okay, that german dots clue is a Babble word nerd clue if I ever saw one. Not sure how many people know that term.
really? I thought that would be easy
I had to google the def mlfan gave to find the word
umlaut?
probably language students
yes, see TO knows it
I thought that word was common knowledge. looks like the AB is german also so I reckon they're related
mlfan is all into copying and pasting definitions these days. Common knowledge? There are people who don't know what an ampersand is, let alone symbols in German.
my house is now an unholy mess. at least i just gained abou 19 words later
umlaut, tilde,
I would say that the word umlaut is common knowledge, but OTOH common knowledge is in the eye of the person who has that knowledge.
I think it was dan here who told us the real name of the pound sign, which is now known as hashtag. what was that?
can't wait to clean. really.
the number sign? 🤣
no, it had another name
paging dan2bit (I think it was you)
google says octothorpe
now that's some word nerdery 😜
I have to laugh when someone like Carla makes an effort not to put over half of a grid word in the chat and then people just start using the word. : D
Are there any PR words?
yes
I tried
I have 2 PR, are there more?
not seeing the PRs...stats?
i have a pr5.12
ty seain. Monkeyed it but it's a new one for me.
pr4/6, 5/14
thanks, new to me too, but that finished the bottom P for me
alt spelling of the ubiquitous boat
hey guys
moo!! you been working hard?
something like that :)
how's your tuesday going?
pretty good, not here in the game, but elsewhere. this grid stinks. how about you?
pretty tired, still 122 left on this one for me
well, I'll give you my stats just because. T (3col) T (5col,2row) Bx4 Sx4 ix2 Dx3 Px10 Tx3 Dx3 Rx3
I won't bother giving you mine yet:)
30-24-12-18-8-0
36-24-36 what a winning hand
5-8-7-11-3-0
but only if she's 5'3"!
come on, please name that song, molly
Mine is lyrics from Brickhouse, not idea what you are on about
come on, just do it...
The only lyrics to that song that I know are the obvious, I like big butts and I cannot lie
✅✅✅
You have some odd stuff committed to memory Carla
I can pretty much sing the entire song
well, it's not intentional, some things just stick
pretty good to have for bar/restaurant trivia
and I guess this is why I can't remember every word I've ever seen here, no room
i listen to 50-60,000 minutes of music a year. mostly newer music. i know a lot of lyrics. haha
I know a lot of lyrics as well, it just happens when you listen to music.
disney lyrics, musicals, something about the tune and the words together and i remember
yeah, this board is tougher
50 to go...
it's the worst. oh well, gotta run out to the PO before it closes. later...
pa7 the first anyone?
the first one I have is a plural without a singular
change final vowel of bear and extend.
They did water system work on our street today. they've been repaving the hole the cut in the street for almost two hours now.
that's a new word for me, and ouch.
and there went the excavator on its trailer.
challenging grid today
bear? hmmmm
197 words and 3009 pts...putting an end to the misery...
48 left here
stats for top U please?
ul 4
oy.
thanks
I've got a TR7 and a TR9, but I'm not seeing the TR8. Is it related?
only related with the first syllable
hmmmm
still need the first pa7, it's not the bear, there's a pa7/44
Umlaut, umlaut, umlaut
is that a clue for me Molly? umlaut?
I have one that rhymes with snacks made out of sugar
oops, that's 7/36
I think Molly's calling out a phantom? like tubular is for me, same corner
it's a clue for AB6/7
ty hokie for the explanation - just nailed 'em
not sure if anyone asked for it. we had a discussion earlier about umlaut.
now I have a new phantom: ablution!
(slinks off, back to work...)
does anyone have that PA7, 44??
looks like it should end with -tomy
not I
phantom parable
its between the chinese animal and the 7.36
ooh, found it
so many pa7s!
ends like the phantom part of 80s phrase "totally tu*"
but this one is before the "bear"
Oh, that helps. I thought it was before the chinese animal and I was looking for a PAB.
you are on the right track, joy, don't change. don't ever change. :D
errgggggghhhhh. So it is a PAB then, damn.
ah, that's a 7.44 thanks, carla
pablum? pabst blue ribbon?
oh, i clued wrong one, the 7.40 oops
pabst, tituba...
my post never appeared
Maybe it will arrive tomorrow, Hokie :D
maybe
not finding that pa7/40 between the 2 things. seems like not a lot of options there so how hard could it be?
it ends with a variant of 'say' in Latin
Most of the chinese animal + first two letters of the month after november + first and last letter of a three lettered word for what scissors do do paper.
thanks, could've sworn I tried that
ty
Veitch st is in Arlinton, VA (rhymes with each)
It's not a clue for ab6. I wou8ld never clue a six letter word with 4 of the letters in it.
CSITT!
there's an ab6 not a past tense?
I wouldn't do that either 😜
yes, seain an AB6/7 combo
similar to the dots that go over some german letters
ooh, found an i!
and a 7 to boot
clue for the pi8 please
nm
hmm, didn't know I need one
It is a pi 7 & 8
Ends in what Nan normally types when she has finished lol
this? !*!
painted, literally. thanks
The word, Hokie lol
I have decided to list. so far, don't know the words. so that's good I guess.
spoke too soon
and that's bs, I know I typed tr5/10 multiple times today and it always said it wasn't a word.
back again
hey.
hey, how was the PO?
having to skip words all over the place on the list.
still 46 left here
fine, it's a satellite PO in a gas station, so not the long lines
groovy, ive got a couple of small ones near me that are pretty quiet most times
Okay with 4553 points I am going to go to bed. Happy babbling everyone!
and this is a 5 min drive vs. 15-20 for the 2 official ones closest to me
night zoo
good night, zooz
nice
11-9-8-11-6
5-4-3-5-2. have already seen those 7s and had to skip
oh, good
oh, the 2 is 8's (working on one now). I have skipped 2/5 of my 7s
now skipping the 8
heh, don't have those yet
I didn't say which ones😂
oh, thought you said there were 2 is8s
whoops, I meant the 2 I was referring to were 8's, not 7's because I read the hurshy notation wrong
almost antithetic :)
oh
but I was missing one i and it wasn't an 8. but it was a word I've never seen before.
was in a 6?
do we think foreign coin, scottish word, or ancient armory
no, a 4!
ah
yeah, know which one you mean :)
can have an e instead of the last letter
I think
well, according to the link it is an acronym. no idea why one no one's ever heard of is in there but things like ASAP is not.
russian log hut
Before I totally lose the will to live, can somebody give me a dummy’s clue for pi 7/8? Please and thank you
for when you're roughing it in Siberia
looks kinda like a mispronunciation of the thing stuffed with candy that you beat
or maybe if you said it with a cold?
tx, didn't have those
but I'll try to break it down - pointy thing used in sewing, etc. + a t word that I use when I finish a lot and said t word is not in enable (think what a magician might say)
In6/27 please?
une, this is a ridiculous one, hold on
in + what an irishman calls his father + most of a sheep sound
You legend, Carla. Thank you.
LOL
np
yeah, wouldn't have got that one...tx
Thanks!!
that completes my i's
you don't know south african conferences?
bit rusty on them
down to 40
still going through the list and still skipping words
sounds fun
39 to go and 21 of them from that middle column, 12 from the s
can't even find things that seem they would be obvious due to the list
I actually got down to 3 S's pre-list, but I've had to skip all 3 of those.
well, found an s
wow, of course I didn't have the sheep sounds even though i used it in a clue mere minutes ago
ewe missed them huh?
guess it has to be rammed into my head
now 9 left after going through the list
where there's a wool, there's a whey
38 left, after looking at that s more
oh, another s
and a b
what's the length of the last B you have?
b4
still have 2 b's to go
has there been some discussion of that AB7,8 combo? Did it fail to penetrate my thick head? Can someone rescue me from this fate?
what if I spoiled it and told you there is a set of 5/6 after that 4 and I can't figure out how it's possible?
not really a combo, joy
I found the 5 hoke
there are 2 ab7 and one ab8, none related
you have what you do to the turkey, right? And where the turkey lives? And the British rolls?
sigh. They're not related? Bleh.
the 8 is something like pavement that causes a skinned knee
the b5 is a currency of course
okay, moo, how can I not get it?
because it's a weird word
it goes up
I saw that clue before. That's the one that didn't penetrate. Asphalt?
what's a fancier name for a skinned knee?
or carpet burn
guess I can't do math because I wasn't counting right, thx moo
cuts and ab
so you say there's a six as well?
AB or BU?
bu
it's just a plural of that 5
I know the word but it's not in the grid. I will monkey
oh duh
heh
I find the hard one, miss the easy
i get the carpet burn clue, but not seeing how yall ar spelling it.
sounds like something that caused cuts joy
or perhaps an adjective
well, something that causes it has a different ending
the ab8
I think it's a noun form
yes, "sounds" like it tho
oh it can be an adj. if it has the quality to cause it
and to make it easier, there's no S in it
there's some weird words in this grid
very. this is the hardest one we've had in a long time
wow, now i am really confused!
wasn't there someone who does a difficulty rating? I don't remember how she arrives at the rating though.
A+man's name, plus insect
good one
10-6-5-8-3
ty moo for spoon feeding me
no worries
6 left here - SSS DD P
this board crosses your eyes, and dots your tease
true
the D's are another instance of I don't know how else it could go alphabetically
which d?
found one, maybe it's not a combo after all
di6/27
there is a 7 after it that can't be plural
got it, not related of course
indeed
still have 10 fours, so probably should look into that
yeah, I think i had 5 when I listed and only didn't know the one
my P is an 8 so that's fun
well there's one, and I've greyed the 4th column
know the first 4 letters, so that's fun too
oh FFS
excuse my acronym
sounds fun :)
it was P + a 7 letter word I found hours ago
ah
found two more words
ooh, another one
should've looked for 4's earlier
haha
ok, down to 2 7's left
28 left here
found 1!
oh two more
so many easy 4's I missed
down to 25
I'm probably gonna have to look up the last one
s7?
I like your pic, just saw what it was
yes
only have a lame s7
su7
there are 2, same point total
well I have one which has one more letter than the 6 before it
that is to say...the 6+a letter
yeah, this one is before the 6
found it
take the four before it and add to it
new word for me
perhaps it's an alternate name for sonar :)
well, there's only so many things I can try, surely I'll get it eventually
i just listed and am alreadynstuck on a's. lol
you know what they use for detecting things above ground right?
yes, some very weird a's today
found that p8 you referred to
ok, got it, thx

5-4-5-6-2
ok, know the V
can guess 2 of the As
missing the ab 6/27, 7/40 and 7/44.
TTTHHIS ISSREALLLY DDDUMBB
are they related?
there's an ab6/27 that is related to an ab5/14 before it
EI, do you know the word for the little dots over some german letters? the AB6/7 set ends the same
NO, IT'S FUN
i don't....
dangit, you proved molly's point earlier when I said that word was common knowledge
Well, two of you think so.
this grid will keep me busy all evening. lol
do you mind googling? google what are the dots in german words called.
i know the word for the spanish accent thingies.
if you've got nothing nice to say....
🤣
okay, got those. now for the 7/44
bathed and um...well done other things in the bathroom ei
cleaned yourself
oddly the 7/44 is a past tense of a word where the root word is not allowed
and I only learned there was a word for washing up here but apparently everyone else knows it
well the root is odd, because I think it's the -tions word
I don't know if it can even be singular
so the noun is being past tensed like a verb is what you're saying
that is weird and i did try the root.
english is weird
yeah
now for the ap7/32 and 8/45....
mineral ei
a type of mineral that makes you hungry perhaps :)
still 22 left here
I've found some gem mining with the kids

are any of the ar7's related?
I have three of them...and the first and third are kinda related...the middle one not
although I guess distantly it is
or in a "street market" kind of way
i have no ideas.
the first is a superlative
the second is someone who is very good at their craft, the third is one who creates the first
nice! thank you moo
yw toast
i have the painter, musician,etc. and the one who is good at their craft.
yes, thank you, moo
missing a 6/27, 7/40, 7/28 and 7/28.
so you're just missing the first one ei?
it's the superlative
there's two ways of spelling the painter/musician etc
yes. got that.
okay...just wanted to make sure
now missing 6/27 and 7/40 and last 7/28
these are a's or ar's?
ar's. the fist two after the ar4.
well the ar7/40 is ar + something that sounds like a cliff
yeah, those are weird too
6/27 and 7/40 that is
and the last ar 7/28 is ar6/18+ letter
tx for the stats on the ar6/27 7/40 too btw
which a does it come from? that might help me... of course, it might not. lol
the ar6/27 7/40 comes off the 1st column
the ar 7/28 off the 4th column
got those.
done with my a's! whoop!
b's done too.
well, I've had enough of this board....going to go do something less productive
