Good morning, word freaks.
Disappointed that hoho isn't a word
*Puts ho-ho's and oreos in the PB
good morning
'morning, owl, everyone
hi welki, hi TO and everyone
good morning. scrabbler, i saw a news story made me think of you. i've been trying to find a photo with no luck.
I'm finding this board rather tricky!
Hello, friends.
hi bea
time to get going. happy babbling.
Hello Bea. Are you tired, listless? Do you poop out at parties?
Yes, yes and yes.
The answer to all your problems is in this little bottle.
Funny you should mention that.
howdy folks
Hey, Carla.
O words, any clues?
Why Bea, are you drinking your breakfast today? 😊
How's things out west?
Only found 1 😬
this is certainly not starting out well. I don't see any c's.
just started, ajb, but will look
Found the dessert waterhole
au revoir hokie
stats for the X, pls? I hate X words
Thou shalt not blurt
Those C's were not easy.
there's a couple O babblets and plural
There is a c4 that is like the Dutch way of spelling of Cough
thanks, shirl. I always miss that one!
xe7.48
Is there a Babblet dictionary resource?
haha, there should be
but you just have to memorize them over time
you can look at the list of 4 letter words from lickety, if you want. They just pop up all the time
There is the o that is said in surprise.
the ones that remind me of the US state
Hi all. Any clues for the C top corner? Also missing the N top corner. Clues and stats welcome.
Sprite's profile has a list of Babble words (I hate the term "Babblet") but you have to scroll down through her dictionary of made-up words. Her profile is like ten pages long.
alright, i give, i need a clue for the X, not just the stats. pretty please?
Ends like a liver disease
ends with not bro
THANK YOU!!!!
thanks
yw
Liver disease but change first letter and spell as it is said. Should do it.
NBT so now off to play wordle -- still on my streak, though almost missed yesterday's, got it on the last one! lol
I somehow managed to get yesterday's in 4
Any clues for the top corner N or top corner C words? Ty
but a lot of people struggled
8:04 shirlock literally gave me a clue for the c
n5 - relating to the nose
Ty for n 5 got it
Cant find the dutch C. Sorry
I don't know that one either, but that's not the clue I was talking about. it's the italian goodbye.
that it is
Got a c word but hardly cough…….the dutch is kaf. Not in grid. But ok ty.
Ty all cluers.
Any stats and clues for the 8 please?
crikey
is that a clue or an observation? :)
Mael i also am confused. Perhaps it is an acident
Accident
Why isnt faxer a word???????one who sends a fax.
Crikey is an expression of surprise. The co9 is a weird compound - fuel you burn that makes things dirty + pisces
Thanks, matty.
I know you are excitred about your upcoming visit to see the babies.
I am so very much!
I only have one C from that top left corner (the weirdish cu4/9) - may I have stats for the other two, please?
ci4/5
ci4.5 and cu5.16
Thanks!
The four I should have seen, the five not so much
hello all
co5.12 & 6.21. Never ever spelt that way!
isn't grreat what tony the tiger says?
yes
maybe grrreat
finally got HOET.
I'm still on the seconmd row...
Been on the phone with med people all morning.
yeah, but you work it differently
I went to raleigh yesterday
How is your boy?
I was in Wake Forest yesterday, Shitty day, wasn't it?
he's good. just took him some things.
yeah, and it was even icy here on the trees when I left, so I had the rain all the way there and all the way back. plus fog on the way back.
Okay, I waded through all that crap in Sprite's profile and started a list of words rarely seen except in Babble (Babblets if you must). Feel free to mention things to add.
Sorry, forgot to add its in my profile.
ureai or however it's spelled
I had another and now it's gone
oh, the multiple spellings of meow
and maar
urari?
uraei it appears
Hwell...I lost both Wordle and Dordle today...looks like Babble's not gonna do me any favors. gak!
74 left.... back later, thanks for the clues
down to one guess on wordle. I just mistakenly wasted 3 guesses because I'm multi-tasking.
was able to get it at least
no idea what dordle is. haven't seen that one.
there is one called nerdle that is apparently math related but I haven't tried it
I just read a very funny piece entitled "Why Does Everyone Think I Care How They Did With Wordle?" 😊
just found a LOTR wordle
lordle
first ho6/24.....clue please
I don't have any ho6. guess I will look for 2, thx.

an o short of yelling
ah, that's that H finished. huzzah.
bottom row gray!
well, I better get busy. 28 left for later. a whole lotta c's, s's, and h's.
good morning everyone :)
yay, babble time!
phantom: cushion
I don't think Molly plays wordle!
hello all....
I found it pays to have a system - start with a word that has at least 2 vowels and 2 of the most common consonants: r,s,t,l,n.c(sound familiar?)
NTPN: ferry terminal in Normandy
Calais
*gold star for hurshy
What's the big one?
co 8...
co 8/65....
Thanks
yw...
Hmmm... Probably totally wrong but is it a type of fi/4
there are 20 4's I have not found -- how can that be?
yes....compound word....
ha! whaddya know
i just started....still have 101 to find...
i am not liking this grid already....
lol - it was friendly enough until I got down to about 60
i think it's a bit hard
what is the x?
The x ends like liver disease
ty
xe 7/48
found it....ty....
giving up and heading to list
Thanks for confirming, never heard of a C...f... Before
me either...
can someone please give me STATS for the top left C?....
keep forgetting the chief blade of grass
i have cu4/9
Dutch way of spelling cough, cu/4
and ci4/5
ty...
the chief blade of grass???
yes -- you've heard of the al 5 leader of the pack? -- figure this one has to be the biggest blade of grass
oh, i see. i think it's just an alt sp from a different language
but that is funny
lost me....interesting that dictionary.com now just changes your spelling if they don't have a definition for a word....can't get it to recognize a word that was accepted here....
probably isn't a word
probably not....or the enable people couldn't spell... ;o)
there are 2 in the a's that have no def
two of those C words, too....
one looks like it is a mineral that can be chopped
C is the hardest today i think
a mineral that can be chopped? are you referring to an A word there or a C word
yes, still missing 17 from that right C....
*better quit before Molly accuses me of blurting
I just cleared the second row C with an absolutely ridiculous word.
good to know, i guess....
or you could just blurt since most people do not mind
was it the ca 6/24 bea?
That's the one!
another alt. sp.
The second ca6
woot, thanks for that one
oh - don't have that one yet
is the 7 related?
oh well then i guess i need another one
The 7 is plural
and a 7
ok got the 7
sometimes you feel like a nut, sometimes you don't
so there is another ca6 before that?
too true, carla...
very ridiculous
i only have one...
Yes, hurshy.
oh...have the other now...
the first one is like a town in NC north of Myrtle Beach but missing some letters in the middle
how many points
same as the other
actually it's an astringent substance from plants...alt spelling....
ty
when I saw the first one I thought of " goodnight mrs. ca------------, wherever you are"
hah...exactly what i thought...
hmm, maybe before my time
don't think carla and hurshy are old enough for that one, pen
perhaps...
Yeah but Jimmy Durante is a classic for all ages
just made up a word (at least I did not know it) and it was accepted...gotta love that...
now George was a great comedian -- put a lot of our current ones to shame
George who?
burns maybe?
no it wasn't George - it was Jimmy Durante
Gobel?...
But what does that have to do with Jimmy Durante?
isn't he the one who said it?
George burns was a great commedian. So was jack benny and henny youngman and so many from way back.
i never said cesar romero was tall
yes, Jimmy...
God,I am so lost.
George Gobel was also terrific.
who's on first?
I thought you were talking about Carlin...
boy i totally forgot about george gobel. Wow. Memories.
GEorge Carlin was brilliant.
This chat is like people just saying random things and none of them connect.
damned if i know...
*slowly backing out of the conversation*....
these pretzels are making me thirsty
both were great comedians - Jimmy Durante and George Burns
La la la
LOL @ Carla.
yes - I liked Carlin too
you rush a miracle man you get rotten miracles
My head is already swimming as I've been on the phone all morning with health insurance and medical clinics.
Oh now Hurshy has to throw Billy Crystal/Princess Bride into the mix. Ru, time for your Anne Hathaway comment.
ugh, that sucks, i'm sorry Bea
i feel your pain, Bea...
The pain will come when I have to write the check...
yeah, the worst
I can't wait to see the bill for all this PT I've been doing.
i got a letter from Anthem saying that my PT is no longer accepting Anthem....not surprising since Anthem is months behind in paying providers...
eek
anyone have co6/27?
new computer system they say....guess it's designed to delay payments!
I think mine only pays 40%, but the PT for vertigo is like super expensive compared to PT I've done for various other body parts.
carla, say it like this: these PRetzels are making me THIRSTY
my friend's chiropractor also dropped Anthem...
I'm trying to get a break on an injection my mom needs every month. $1400 per injection.
ah yes, TO.
whoa!!
I do not, hurshy
aha, i finally got it
neither do i, hursh...
or geoge: THESE PRETZELS ARE MAKING ME THIRSTY!!!!!!
It is stupid that a medication would cost that much.
agreed...
yes, also agreed. but you have the outrageous prices for insulin and epipens too.
not for nothing did we suck at seinfeld trivia night. i wish the questions were as obvious as that.
we found that costco had decent prices for medications.
what about that new thing mark cuban set up to provide more affordable meds?
I'm assuming the injections bea is talking about is from a dr office and not available at costco.
It has to be given at in infusion center.
okie dokie. i think four threads of conversation at once is m limitl.
haha
doctors can go to bat for their patients for manufacturers' assitance for copay
most drug companies have programs for specialty, new and high prices drugs.
well, lunch break over here. back to work. 26 left for later.
bye
The drug company has a program I am trying to get her into.
bye, carla...
i paid $25 for a drug thaat cost $800
our doctors got us in.
so have you all found the herb used in lieu of medicine in this grid? leaving for a walk in the beautiful sunshine.
back again for a few, CO 6, 27, no Hurshy, do not have, sorry, but I am on C...... slow going today
the Cs are a pain today
I'm back after grocery store and lunch
back after garbage detail and breakfast
back after checking out the Bee....
co
bee is much better than yesterday
phantom: claxon
I keep looking for that N for claxon too
oh, I had the C plant. I just don't associate it with medicine haha
another phantom: fuchia
I just know is as a beautiful native plant that the pollinators love
Hurshy, got it, just messing around,
yep, never heard of it
I think it's fuchsia, right? but also yes, definitely a phantom
is the c plant a co 6/27?
yes
yeah probably
clue please?
plant is also known as fairy candle plant
no idea sophie
if I knew anything about plants, i would probably already have the word... ;o)
type in those 3 words
moving on...
must be something that grows in the east or south?
maybe someone will have a clue for us pen
we can only hope...
I'm sorry, I thought typing in fairy candle plant would work, it shows the plant and another word for it, CO...
moving on...
sophie I prefer to google things only as a last resort
ok, I understand....well, I'm sorry, I can't come up with a good clue
ok, here we go.... last 4 letters of it
dumb clue
remember spice girls????
word for fancy????
now change her beginning letter to H
that's the last 4 letters, you know the first 2
thanks for trying, sophie...moving on... ;o)
ty sophie - new one for me
nooooo
don't quit
oh i won't quit....just quitting on this word for now...
pen: co + one of the cartwright brothers with last letter changed
ty, nan....got it...
anyone need the CO 6 30, no spice girls
no, thanks...got that one...
have all CO s now if anyone needs a clue, apparently not good clues :)
i am just moseying along....i don't do letters in any order....
but thanks for asking...
he 7 please? figure it must begin with a curse?
don't have it....will look....
looking
he 7/52
yes, curse, then vowel, then 3 letters used at the beginning of some Calif cities
ty, sophie...
ty sophie
just knew it wasn't Superman's bedtime activities :D
heh heh....i need a break....bbl to find my last 39....bye all....
thanks for the hint sophie
bye pen
hope that cancels out my spice girls clue
there wasn't anything wrong with the spice girls clue, sophie -- it is a generational thing. Only reason I knew who you were talking about is because I had two teenage boys when they became popular
Ha, me, too..... I just couldn't come up with anything else...but I'm prob older than most here, and remember all the Cartwrights..... esp that I wrote to the youngest one, and got a glossy photo back!!!!
I see that you are also a retired teacher -- did you read the winter boots story in my profile -- I guess if you've always lived in a "no snow" zone that situation never arose for you.
Oh, no..... I grew up in Topeka, never heard of a snow day, and worse yet, had to wear dresses, until the year after I graduated..... so, yes, slacks under the dress, omg, what a horrible memory
I think you are probably younger than me -- my grandkids range in age fro m 32 to 9
mine are 14 to 6 we waited a long time before having our first..... until G stopped working for company that transferred a lot I'm 70
yes, I have a few years on you - close to 79 now
well, you seem much younger :)
just love the grands....... had i known they would be so un , i mighta had them first !!, but---- the great grands are amazing.. i have five of the m ranging from 14 to 3 and not a throwaway in the bunch !!
lol, sam -- it is a lot more fun when you don't have to discipline or reason with them or even have them underfoot all day, month, year long.
hi all. help with corner S please
alfa
yes, I agree on the grands!!!
Iam really enjoying my adult grandchildren now -- we have such a good time when they come for a visit. The little ones are great but just have soooo much energy.
Plural, Peri.
I'm leaving a couple of H words and moving on
Are there some weird n words? I've got the one related to the nose
sorry, not there yet
all are NA
hi all, diving in
A couple of the three vowel N words we normally get .
((zoom)) good to see you :)
Nan 💕

Thanks zoo, learning the babblets slowly
sounds like it should have gills, Nan
Ends in animal you have with chips and salt and vinegar,l Nana.

Zoom is right, lots of vowels on those N words
I'm missing one of them. It's literally trial and error ðŸ˜
Ho 4/10 been staring at me all along
Good morning all! Hi zoom {{ hugs }} Taking a break to babble, because ... well, I don't have to explain to any of you!
*!*~*!* not the easisest grid.
thanks for the warning, nan.
Hello, Ch1212 💖
Hey Zooz😘
halfway done, woot
Hello, Matty! â¤ï¸ðŸŒ¹
Zoom, are the HO 6 and 7 related....don't know how I get stuck on some :)
Yes one is a plural.
I bit like a way of saying cheers!
Hi zooz, can't figure out the pl for the corner S.
which h starts those two please?
Aches and red, peri.
nm just found the plural for the corner S. feeling stupid
ty zooz
H on the left, CH
H on the left.
thank you.
ZOO perfect clue!!!!
excluding dialects there are 22 foreign and undefined words in todays grid, or 37%
well, thanks for that cheerful tidbit
Yikes. Okay. (Mentally reminding self it's okay not to finish, it's okay not to finish, it's okay....)
I just want to reach 100
yes it is ok. for years I have finished most of the grid until lately.
some are more fun than others
Still trying to work out, aches and red
yes, this one lacks the fun element
lol -- enjoy the rest of your day everyone -- time for me to manufacture some lunch :)
My feet are feeling a bit so4 today then plural.
ajb, sometimes if I run a fever, I get a cold _____ on my lip
enjoy, nan.
plural
yesterdays's did too Sophie
too many C words today. I do not like C words
I thought it was Ho, not So 🤔
33 left, be back later this evening
Is there a type of flower beginning with F in top left corner?
it looks like there should be, but there isn't :)
there is a plant though
I do not like C words, oh no! I do not like them in a row. I do not like them going down, I do not like them going round. I'll skip them all, Miss Peri said, and concentrate on Fs instead.
There is a Fi 5 tree or shrub.
Thanks Zoo
Also a FL 4 & 6 which are blue flowers.
LOL ch
right!
though it mostly refers to the color of the fiber
True, Mael. also a FL7 for that as well.
monkeyed the 8, woot
Nice, Gwen! Chips with it?
Didn't know fl4 was flower, just knew it as Fl.. Seeds
Surprised axies isn't a word
chips -- i want chips -- yum
Add another letter and you got one, Ajbns.
Nice, another word I've not heard of
2/3 done, woot
taking a break, bbl

my sister's was there days ago, and our great aunt yesterday.
Hail to the February babies
at one point, we had 17 members of my family in the first 14 days of February.
Seems like your family is partial to gettin' busy in May
I'm so done with this one.
I just had a lovely Indian meal. Yay delivery!
huh. I did not expect that ca6/7 to be accepted.
hey hush.. what's bill's last name to send him a card?
14 left. 1 R and the rest are S
Fireworks! Anyone need a clue??
seain - it's a type of atringent not the nut.x

Hi Harp.
Sorry to love you and leave you, Harp. But I have to go now. BBL. Happy Babbling!
I'm only half here....see you later!
found a marten
and a baby bovine
and a salmon
I was sad to see a candle for Volleymom Dee. I missed her when she went away.
On the other hand I was so happy to see Zooz is back. He's such an asset to this group. I hope he knows how much he is loved.
harp - there is also a big white bird that honks, and a co8 swimmer on the the wildlife front.
Yes, Westford. Always sad over all these years to see yet another player die.
Oh dear, we lost another one? Was it posted on FB?
I'm glad some of you kept in touch with her.
hi jacula and mich and harp
I went away and came back for the flip, btw. Probably my last late night foray on the internet, which gave me my night owl name of Jacula over the past 30 years
morning all
Hello Westford
