I do wine ta 8 every time I visit a winery -- don't know why it isn't accepted
I think you're misspelling it, maybe?
try with a less vowel
i was referring to the plural
itself
Ah...
tu9
same applies to the st
hi7
good clue diz :)
good night everyone :)
ta7 x 2, ta8
May I have stats, please, for the lone T in the fourth row, third column (above the F)? And good morning
Never mind!
Found it
What a grid! The 11 reminds me of Thanksgiving
second row i?
Is 5/10
ty liz! nbt :)
The 11 is from the first column, bottom row
Yw
and HOET. 73 to go - bbl hopefully.
Good morning Babblers.
scrab! what is going on with those bills!
they find a way to lose every game, it's like the mets.
Waaah. The defense couldn't maintain the lead and the offense had terrible turnovers. *sob*
nauseating game.
gotta run. sorry to leave you with that downer.
Are the TU9 and 10 words I'm likely to be familiar with?
I will look with you, matty.
They are from a rare metal
not sure. add one of the 50 US to the tu 4
TY
That did it - thank you! Not a word with which I am familiar, it must be said (though I do know the metal)
yw
tried the yeast medicine 3 times - not accepted
Which one?
Its an FU word :)
Fungicide. Not there.
diff. finish
most of the US 50
I see.
oppe you had a nice break lickety but its really nice to have you back!!
I passed halfway. See you tomorrow. Enjoy the day.
name that proper noun! venerable Japanese religion
out of curiosty do your police have tasers? If so are they spelt with an s or a z
i think S, but neither version counts in any word game i have played :(
top row grey!!
they are Taser because that's the brand name
212 left!
I'm visiting US next week anddont want to get tasered however its spelt!! (not likely anway!!)
you're not a black man, so you should be fine ...
LOL
if it makes you feel better I've never seen or known anyone in real life get tasered
it's not funny, it's true and sad
no I know it wasnt really a joke Hurshy its the same here excepot our cops dont have guns most of the time
yeah you at least have sensible gun laws
well technically you were talking about stun guns and then it got changed to gun guns
you all do know a taser is not a gun, right?
I want expexting to be tazered Hokie it was just a joke I was really querying the spelling
indeed, but both are used more on minority men
i think they went with S because it was somehow like laser?
per the googles it's actually TASER, which is a loose acronym of Tom Swift and His Electric Rifle, which is a book I've never heard of.
go figure
FYI there was a shooting at UVA last night. 3 dead, 2 injured. I think the shooter was a former football player and shot football players and fled.
and then there was that horrid crash at the air show in dallas on saturday :(
yeah, I saw that.😢
ohhh, an eleven. the challenge is one.
one what?
one eleven?
on. sorry, no coffee.
ahhh. lol.
hi all. clue for any 8 please
I only have SE8, like places in books
ty
too many ou words
but I'm just on 2nd row
just found fl8/9
um, se8 comes from the third row, silly
lol, sometimes I jump around if it sticks out
lone T please
I think ta8 should be allowed, like wine ta8. (I did just find another ta8)
i thought the same, hokie
and no te8
yeah but ta8 is the one that we've definitely heard in sentences
yes
ah, tennis is canceled this morning due to frozen courts. have to say I was not looking forward to it.
hursh, did anyone call Shinto as the religion? I lost track of the chat :)
that must've been before I got here
ding ding ding!!!
I wish there was a T next to the H...
I know!
ooh, finally found a 9
I only have one too
pretty satisfying though, so far!
just on 3rd row but the 9 I found was on the bottom
kinda stuck on the A
nm, moving on!
it's the O I'm stuck on right now
have 5 o's but haven't gotten to it yet 🤣
hah, I have seven and I HAVE gotten to it lol
phantom outfit
ooh, got another 9
nice
hmm, didn't someone ask about the single T?
it's the act of going to my alma mater, lol
<---racks brain to see if mael has ever said her alma mater
got it!
:)
<----chuffed. got the 11
The I's are giving me a headache
awesome! chuffed is a word that sounds bad to me but I reckon it means you are happy about it.
And iris is haunting me
I am very happy about finishing the z on first look.
do you want the stat for that middle i, player girl?
Yes please and the one in the 4th column,
is5/10 in 3rd col, io4 and 5 in 4th
4th column io 4/4 and plural
Thank you
Thank you sukee and hokie carla. The io I should have seen but I'm not familiar with the is.
I only know the is5 from here
Not finding the is either
ends like something a ref uses or a thorny weed
ahh, got it, ty
have to run, power is running out on my laptop :)
get thee to a charger!
1st pass done here - HOET and 50 remaining. TTFN.
Still missing the E from the 4th row, 4th column and the 10
es7.28 comes from that E. Large properties
Totally in the dark as to mael's alma mater
well, it's what you do to a home dec pillow or ottoman with a button to make a little dip
the univ is tu5, which is from the t next to the clue she gave
I think of it as small clump of hairs.
If you read the chat again, it looks like she is saying that the 9 she found is the act of going to her alma mater, not the lone T. Again, it is hard to follow these chats when people don't specify what word they are talking about.
so many meanings
And I believe the university has an S at the end
yes, tu5 like I said
My ortho doc went there, Harvard and MIT. Genious much?
and if you reread, I said, didn't somebody ask about the single T, and she replied, the act of going to my alma mater
Ha, and I can't even spell genius.
yeah, somebody's extra 🤣
I was just making a joke about the tu7 from the middle T :)
People always like to mention where they went to college if it is somewhere prestigious
sure they worked for it in many cases
And they should.
Oh good Lord, Tu5 requires a GPA of 4.04
and if Harvarding was a word they could also make that joke, but alas!
joke's on Tu5 too, I did not even have a GPA. I had A Levels and Italian exams instead
I always like to ask my ortho doc, "why not Princeton too?" 😊
What is his response?
or her
He just looks at me like I am a smartass, which I am.
I could have gone to a school that accepted a 4.04 GPA. But with two babies, I lowered my sights.
I had nowhere near a 4.0 gpa.. I feel a bit dumb in this crowd
we had a whole other system, but when I went I can't say there was a firm GPA requirement...
also, I transferred in from Harvard night school soo....
my school used a 100pt scale and my graduating avg was 103.something, so I think that's +4.0
*my high school
this is a nice grid for once
I agree, ru
Who knew the first name of the Prime Minister is actually a word?!
Aw, for anyone who watched Days of Our Lives, John Aniston died. Farewell Victor Kiriakos. He was also Jennifer Aniston's Dad.
oh, I didn't see that
and I did not know the PM name. actually, I knew it was a word and already have it, just didn't know who the new PM was.🤣
I'm not sure who replaced Boris
well, I googled it
and then I saw it said oct 24, so then I didn't feel as bad for not knowing
wow.. never heard of him
what happened to the woman?
she resigned
(I think I remember hearing that)
we could send them Donald Trump to help
ooh, brilliant
people say he's the best at helping the brits out
oh yeah Charles just loves him
This is why I get so tickled by people in other countries and their knowledge of our politicians and politics. I know jack shit about the politicians and politics of other countries.
when birds poop it's airsh4
Does anyone remember the scene in "Top Secret" where the flying people are dropping on a statue of a pigeon?
molly, I was just thinking how the brits here are either laughing or cringing at us for not knowing
not i, i haven't heard of that
oh, top secret is a classic val kilmer movie. haven't seen it in a long time and don't remember that scene. was prob too young to "get it".
of course it isn't streaming for free anywhere
it's a satire/spoof of spy movies
So many movies are not streaming or rarely stream for free
maybe someone will add it
i think it's kind of an amazing thing that liz truss only lasted 6 months but it just so happened to be in that time that she got to be involved with the switch to a new king, something that hadn't happened for like 7 decades!
Google says she only lasted 44 days
six WEEKS hurshy
yeah, I didn't think it was that long
oh six WEEKS sorry
even crazier then
anyone know what my missing S is on top row? 24, I know that's a tough guess unless it's just obvious.
apparently my brain had trouble computing the idea that anyone could last only 6 weeks
my last one was the nap
nah, have that, thx
there's a sr4,4
not that either, good guess though
she sort of self-destructed. ie by wanting to lower taxes to the rich so they would spend more and raise the economy...crazy idea
oh yeah.. we get that idea here too with republicans saanich
maybe the sh5/12 that falls between the leg part and the poop?
nope
trickle down economist.. the only trickle is pissing on the middle class
you are right on that
going to look at my plurals and stuff
maybe it is se6/18
I do not have one of those, so I think you're onto something!
I had to look up one word in morewords.. never saw it before.
I just read that the owner of our local NFL team paid 48 million in cash for his house/mansion. IN CASH.
holy smokes
well he's going to sell the team for 7 Billion
well of course when they say "in cash" it doesn't mean in actual physical cash, just that he didn't need a mortgage
it will be good for you guys to have a new owner
LOL, I don't think any of us were thinking stacks on stacks on stacks
it would be pretty entertaining to see a box full of cash totalling that much
Good riddance to the little tyrant
is this se6 a regular word?
yes
hmm. I must be literally blind to it
it's not a word you would use every day but it's not like WEIRD
it's a group of a certain number
Although I am not sure Jeff Bezos will be any better
aha, I always miss those
top row gray!
did he buy the team?
I can see it now the Washington Amazons
lol
then it would be a women's team
women checking their packages :D
I could dig Matthew McConaughey as owner though
I am reading a list of potential people interested in buying. It will take months to close the deal.
did people say what the 3rd col T is? i missed it
TU7
ack
aha thanks got it
morning all, can I have stats for the lone I?
is5/10
morning, dan
got it carla ty
10 left, including the 10
sigh
lol
I thought you were sighing at having 10 left
what does the left i have besides the preposition?
oh, got it. I kept seeing the phantom metal, there ya go
oh i have no 9s or the 10 or the 11!
a pronoun, hursh
I don't have that other i
thanks mael
one left, an O7 which I assume is just more of the same type of O words
like a mario bros pronoun? itsa me!
I have one O7 but assume there is more
i had more emotions than you, mael, perhaps?
ah, thanks
that's the one! thank you!
FW!
i still miss 4 of those O ... lol
close on the pronoun, hokie :)
ooh found an 8/9 combo
congrats
to mael on the fireworks, not to hurshy🤣
got it finally
well it's my first 9 so i will pretend it was also for me
woohoo, got the 11, Os Overcome!
first col grey!
that 11 was iffy
yeah
T is my biggest Trouble today... need 10 more... out of 22 words to find
why am i always stuck with s and t at the end?
Just guessing, but s and t usually have the highest word counts
but it's weird because the word count doesn't necessarily correlate to how hard they are... like i only need 2 S, but 10 T
so... anyone know what the 10 is?
tu10.91
does it go with any shorter words?
yes, but it is not compound
it is a chemical. the 10 is the plural
aha thank you
yw
phantom: teeth
Something is wrong with Lickety's statistics. It is showing the smallest grid as 2 words 25 points on September 7. I just checked all of the September 7's and no 25 point word count.
yeah we have not had a grid that small in the years that i've been playing
no single digit word counts
I wanted to see what a two word grid looked like
ugly, most likely
That was the day we ran out of puzzles.
but hurshy, there is teef
All dates of September 7 have word counts and they are all over 2
🎶the day the puzzles died🎶
I was all vowels or somesuch nonsence. Dr God reset and lickety didn't
surely I'm not the only one that remebers that?
No, it is in the chat that there was a problem. But I remember no grid, not a grid with all vowels.
There had to be some letters or when lickety posted, he couldn't have had two words if there were no letters.
any definition for the ou11?
on thanksgiving, i wont be home. ill be OU11 ;)
oh, thanks
Oh that clever Eva
hmm, just realized I only got ou8 from that so then got ou9 and now trying to figure out an 11.
me too, Carla
one ou8 has a 9, the other has the 11
11 is gerund
I am only getting a 6/7. Hm
got it thanks
pk, I guess it's another ou8
I have no ou8s
Found the 11. Ty
well the one I found seemed to fit eva's clue but prob means to say something more or better than someone else
My question is what is the 9? My 8 doesnt have a 9…..or i am missing something
I don't get Eva's clu
I do have another 8 but i need clues or help with the ten.
telt
well, that was random
sorry don't have the 10
I got Eva's clue thanks
What do you do on thanksgiving? You have a meal that is a f****. Eva wont be home but will be ***. Combine the words
ah thank you mkg that is Eva's clue.
Yw
Oh i dont have a 9. Ouch. So i need both 9 and 10
help with lone T please
and lower E in 4th column please
I got an E
still need lone T
Little bit of hair + gerund
thanks Molly
thanks Molly
Weird word
old fashioned word
So is scurrilous. That doesn't mean the majority of people recognize it or know what it means.

I'm at exactly half now.

good afternoon everyone :)
hi nan, moo, harry
33 left 4LOET haven't found the 10
hey mab
hey nan
back
I don't have the 10 either
Can I help anybody? Happy to clue...
I still have 45 to go. wouldn't know where to begin :)
just found the ou 8-11 combo -- a hint for the 8-9 please?
nm - found
There’s a fl 8/9 combo. Think raw meat, Nan
Bah!! Too late. As per!
oh - didn't have the pl. on that one - ty
ah got the ou89. ty
Just took a wild, semi-educated guess on the tu9 and tu10!
3 x 8 and 1 x 9 to go
oh that is my last 9 then - looking
I have 1x8, 1x9 and 1x10 left
that 10 is a bit mysterious... some discussion earlier, but still undeciphered.
found the tu 9 -- is the 10 related?
i think so
not coming up with it
yes it is
40 left. that's all for me. good night!
good night harry
Goodnight Harry
bye harry
tu10 is def related to tu9!
tried every ending I could think of, and still not getting it
it's plural of the 9, nan. it's in there.
tried latin plurals - they don't work
just type it in - it's the normal old plural
duh -- was thinking it was an 8-9 combo, not a 9-101
hurrah! i do that all the time, ie killing myself for a 5 that's actually a 6, etc.
downt to 59 -- taking a wordle break
will always remember tu, although won't come up again for decades.
18 left here
just found those, tx for the clue that it existed :)
3 at wordle, 3 at foodle and a start on both bees
do you call them bee A and bee B?
that superlative ending is becoming useful today
yep
down to 14 here
got busy at work 63 left
ooh, found three words
not often we have both the superlative and the gerund in the same grid
and a three letter prefix too :)
just needed a -tion
Skincare GWP promo
yes :)
sorry for that random comment - copy and paste accident!
I was waiting to hear about the skincare promo ;)
you'll look 21 again in no time
not sure I want that then...
side effects include burning sensations
there is nothing that will make me look 21 again
30 - time to list
clawed my way to 9
0-3-5-1
I'd be happy with something that would make me look 50 again!
ingish - a language consisting only of vowels
er verbs not vowels :)
that's the Skincare GWP+ promo - only $5,500.50 a tube
a bargain
inout n. - slang for door
with three s's, it's certainly easy to miss plurals on this board
I find I have missed the one word out of many that goes in the opposite direction
ah yes
found a word!
funito n. - the point at which enjoyment ends
that's the point at which I list
Any hints on the as8?
you'll be surprised when you find it? ;)
it is amazing that you haven't found it dauber
sounds like you're taken aback nan :)
yes!
you could say that I am as 10 - if only that were in the grid
would be shocking for sure
one might even be lost for words when finding that word
have you found it dauber - or do you need another clue?
wow, took me for ages to find that last i on the left
7 to go
good for you, mool
still need 10 and I am using the list
R S T G SS F
either fe 7/40 or fe 5/26 maybe?
tx
*!*~*!*
congrats!
there is an st 5-6 combo I have never seen before
ah yes, I've seen it before
holy cow, I'm shocked I didn't find it. Thanks, all!
but didn't have it
yay daub!
'sdo you have the gh 4? and there are two gi 5
yah, just 5's 6s and that f7 you let me know about
all vowels done
oh, it's that alternate spelling for the qu word
4 to go
R S T
there is a plural ta 8 from that top t that is unusual
and the F of course
do you want a clue for the f?
have all my 8s
just 5's and 6's missing
1x5 and 2x6
ah, found the f finally
do you have the rh?
toesis - to be afflicted with digits on your feet
found my t
just an R and S on the top row
nope, was missing rh
so just an s6 off the top s remaining
the group of six?
yep, that was it
fw!
thanks to you nan :)
grats, mool
normally I would have just given up on those last few...but it felt gettable
tx
and tx for sticking around to help
yw = going back to the bee now :) Hagd everyone
anyone left?
hi, carla :)
I've spent a lot of today under cats, as they are chilly.
hey seain
hmmm
I'm down to 67 left to find.
40 left here
not my fave
Still need a 9 and the 10 clued. Or at least stats. Ty.
I need 1 9, the 10, & 11, sorry
the 10 is the plural of tu9
a compound I didn't expect.
Any clues for the tu word? I have tried tu words so so much
that's apparently my missing 9
ah, it's a chemical word. TU9 starts with a lightbulb filament material, ends with what our country is divided into.
I have tu 4, 7, 5, 4 and 5. Where is the 9? And the 10? Ouch.
Really? Wow.
tu9 is between tu5.16 and 5.12
ok, thx
very weird
I looked it up, it makes sense once I read about it, but yeah, weird generally.
Got them!!!!! Great clue dc. I only know the sten ending but this one takes the cake. Ty.
One more clue needed: for the second row I word.
ends in what a ref uses
I mean it is the end of the thing the ref uses
Ty. What is the stat please?
is5/10
5/10
Ty
I got it! Ty for super clue
I am done for the day. Anyone need clues i might have?
35 left here, will prob just go a little longer.
I aim for half way only. That is plenty for me time wise. Work also calls me.
I have 56 to go, will keep going fora while, thank you.
as8 please
oh, I don't have that one
surprise greatly
ty Gillie
yw
hi babblers
where's the 11?
Hi joy - ou11/136
ty gillie
Just found it. Odd word
yes
I think it means going out to eat!
I imagined it in the context of two villages competing in celebration
and that is the definition I found. Gillie :)
thank you for that
yw :)
fw - any last clues wanted?
te 6,33 please am blind to the third letter
poof!
aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!
change a letter from te6.18
No - I'm still here
and a variant
thank you both, my heart can begin to beat again....
Poof again!
finally found them. Thanks so much
:)
I'm back - that as8 gave me my last T in 2nd col too, thanks
and finally got the 11!
yay!
now just need 1 U for that col
Back on the ipad….
pen!
Carla!
ut4
ahh, thanks
Two U 4 words…
now 29 left
At least I have two…
30 here…
Slow going …
yep
39 more, Z-R done.
25 here. I keep getting sidetracked.
13 now…
Still missing four Ss and three Ts…
I still need 7 t's on the right
My three Ts are all on the right…
I found 2 that we only know from here, sounds like a ferrety animal
but with a t
found a word!
Hmmm….
Oh i do have that one….uses high point letter?
one with, one with alt letter
hoo boy was that as8 not expected by me
Ah, ty…
I was surprised by it too, seain. and there's a word inside the word
there is, indeed!
Yes, have those…
and firewords!
well done
Congrats…
a fun slog, if yet a slog today.
guess I will list so I can fold my clothes
It’s been a slog for me…
same
other people called this fun too, this one was not fun for me but one I thought was fun and easy others did not. who knows.
Agreed….
I am missing one O….any guesses?
I still need 2
All of mine are “not in†words….
well, one of mine was the 8 that goes with the 11. thought for sure I typed that.
I have those…
do you have ou7/44?
Yes…
my other was ou6/21 that is kinda stupid
involves eyes
Do you have five ou 6/21 words?
there are 6
Ah, that eye one was my last one…
Os done…ty
tried several times to find more n's and nothing until I just glance at the n on the list and know immediately what they are.
hello....30 here.
harry!
can clue if needed
hi, harry
not going to finish - just passing through.
I am missing 11 words…EE, TT, SSSS, E, F, L….
Hi harry…
I'm no help on those until I get to them on the list. still can't get one N and I know the 3rd letter.
Ty, DC…..trying to get done without the list, so I don’t know what I am missing….i know i am missing two 8s….
There are four N words that start with the same three letters….
oh geez, my upper e was something a painter uses
That was the last E i found…
yeah, I can't find the 3rd one of those Ns
Think of a small version of those three letters…
Six letters…
yeah, I got nothing
one of my e's was es4. I should just quit. :D
Just stay in the bottom two rows…
good night. this grid is for the birds
agreed, harry. good night!
Bye, harry….
I was missing that ES 4… ;oP
pen, your e's are on the bottom?
ha!
I think your upper e's are ea7/8. direction as a gerund
You are correct….didn’t know you could gerund that word…
me either, but I tried it this morning just in case
Never heard of some of those Os either…
yeah, those are just ridic
Agreed….
ok, one of my f's was the most fe4, which I didn't know was a word. since fe4 is a noun.
and another was alt sp of fe5 with high pt tile
Hmm….
I have the one with the high point tile….
for L do you have kind of not right? that was my missing one.
Is that the fe 4/7 ?
Oh…found that F….ty…
there's fe5/16 and fe5/26 that I assume are the same word
Yes, have those…..all done with my Fs…
fantastic
down to 10 s's and t's now
Missing TT, SSSS, L….
well all my s's are ST
The ones you are missing?
yep
well, turns out the as8 had 2 words inside of it
You have the things you climb?
I found them all now. did not have those though.
Ah yes, had those words from the AS..
Found a couple odd ST words…a five and a pl…
well, there are 2 t's with the high pt tile that are alt sp of the other
My last ST words rhyme with the actor who last played Bond…
yeah, I only found those with the points
well that is it for me. better fold my clothes so I can go to bed!
Ok, goodnight….
what do you have left now? I'll think while folding.
I have five left …. One is apparently the second T that uses the high point letter….also missing an L and a couple SS….
did you see my L guess a few min ago?
Found that T word…no, did not see it….will look…
dont forget the T plural
Ty…. I have two L words that are not right….
there's a 7 in the middle of those two
Ah, ok….will look…ty…
note the rest of my clue - kind of
Found it….a TITT word…
Just missing two S words now…a five and an eight….
from lowest?
Middle…
only one 8, a plural
Duh, that was it…
maybe the plural se5/10 that doesn't end in s?
The latin pl?….i have one of those…
there's only like 3 from there that aren't in pairs, and they are regular words, so check your plurals.
st5 that's like bulky or a heavy person or a beer, a thing in a movie that has a person fill in for the actor, past tense bee action. I think everything else is plural.
I have the beer….my plurals seem to be all there, but I will check again
I will have to either check the list or Best Word list….ty for the help…
aww, sorry, but I know how that goes
No big deal….
