Dictionaries aren't intended to judge words, just to record and define them. That said, Enable isn't actually a dictionary and definitely has some oddities as a word list.

hello all....
hey pen!
hey, carla...
just checked yesterday's bee. was 2 pts from genius but couldn't get it. very annoying he has balalaika. that seems to break all the rules on his list.
i did get to genius yesterday....made it on my second attempt...
nice
never heard of babka....
you must not have watched seinfeld
there was a whole episode about a chocolate babka
never watched seinfeld....
saw a few minutes of one episode and wanted to slap a character...
it's like a bread you might find at a jewish bakery
there seem to be a lot of NY ethnic words that are accepted in the bee....
maybe the bee editor has never been out of NYC....
maybe
I listen to some podcasts with NY hosts and sometimes I just have to laugh at how clueless they are about the rest of the country.
i totally believe that...
eek, just got to the j
nm, saw a route that led to some words
don't panic! 😜
they weren't as impossible as they seemed to be....
well, I only found 7 and moved on but hopefully will see the rest later.
do you have the lone i ?....i could use stats....
yes, hold on

Tiring but lovely - it was fantastic to finally meet those kids!
wb, matty....
awesome!
I'm thinking of going back for a couple of weeks after Christmas. We'll see
I hope you can!
May I have stats, please, whilst you're all here, for the centre E?

ty hurshy
There are at least 2 then.
Thx hurshy.
clue the other champ?
robotic ending
ah thanks
why isn't dino a valid word...it isd the dictionary--jist curious
The dictionary used by Babble is goofy.
It has the word "coon" which I consider a slur
Spelling Bee doesn't have it
ah, rhNKA
should have been, ah, danka
This isn't the last time you're going to question this dcitionary, Duke! ;)
there are quite a few words in this dictionary I find offensive!!
Dictionaries and word lists are non-judgemental. They are collections of words. Criteria for being allowed in either a dictionary or a list has nothing to do with the meaning of the word.
I'M offended by gi5/16 for being an alt spelling of an archaic french word. alt sp, archaic, AND french? three strikes, should be out.
does it even come close to qualifying as English at that point?
mael, did you get balalaika yesterday on the bee? I'm still offended by that.
I am so mad because I had gotten balalaika on a previous board but not yesterday
and yes, no reason for an archaic french word not even spelled normally here.
I'm disappointed in myself!
I don't understand why that is included when he leaves out real words people know.
I would like to find the name of one (1) person who has used gi5 even in an academic paper in the last 20 years
in fact, I just searched google scholar and gi5 only comes up as the last name of a few authors, not as a noun. So there, enable.
wondering if I'm going to be able to monkey this notorious gi5
I bet
found it!
:)
phantom: peahens
morning all
moo!
hey hoke, how's stuff?
