re 7, to 7-8
good evening everyone )
mo7 and good evening, nan!
nbt, nbs
good evening all!!
Hi Sammysmom and everyone
mo8
Clues are up
thanks, lickety
st7
ce 7
x 2
em 7
thanks, nan
yw
still looking for yur mo 8
it's a 6 and 8, if that helps
but not related to the 6-7?
found an mo 7-8
I don't have a 6-7 (and I do have a 7) so I'm going with no
have a 6-7 and now a 7-8
mo 8: workers earn mo***. and ending to it which i have never seen before. that is mo 8.
(I now have the 6-7 and a 7 and 8 that are not linked to each other
so now we have mo 7 x3 and possibly a 4th
mkg - you sure that's the 8? I have a 7 like that
mo 7: to dress and cover yourself so you are very mo****. and then add same ending as the 7. neither word seems like proper english. i really didnt think these were words.
umm... do you have the 7 and 8 reversed?
justafreep, the 7 is the what workers earn. sorry. the 8 is the one that means to dress so your body is covered. you are then mo****. and add 2 letter ending
right. those are the two I called. And nan called a mo6/7 that is different than those.
And nan also called a mo7/8 (that I have not found)
sorry that is all i have so far.
I guess it is the dress one I don't have
that's okay - I was just trying to dispel any confusion since I was pretty sure you had your calls/numbers reversed
fu4&5...and this is why I love babble///
ok - found the mo 6-8
cu7
ok so: mo 6-7, mo 6-8, mo 5-7 and mo 7-8
Not that unusual the mo8/50 surely?
and I still need 13 more m's!
i have never used or seen that mo 8 that i have
don't believe it is really a word, sam
Store
only in babble!
i agree nan. also the mo 7 that is what you get paid with. not a real word
MO8 comparative form of mo6/24
I listed the ones called at 12:38, sam
MO7/40 is an archaic word according to my dictionary
I'm not calling mo8 just explaining why I think it's not an "unusual" word
and why the mo7 is!
no such comparative is our point - not proper english usage
Don't get it....why shouldn't mo7 have a comparative?
that also means there's a superlative of the mo6 in the dictionary... which makes more sense as a word to me. but if it exists, so most the 8
(must)
because it is mo4 mo6, not mo 8
I'm in the 'I've never used it' camp, too
I've just checked a couple of prestigious UK dictionaries and it appears that you are correct! One lives and learns!
can't stay awake any longer - see you tomorrow :)
night,nan
Certainly mo4 mo6 is more elegant. Presumably, there must be other words which follow a similar pattern?
Sure are. Like, we would say "I'm more in love" and not "I'm in lover." :-)
that doesn't seem quite the same thing to me...
(It isn't. I'm being silly cuz it's bed time. But yes, the mo4 xxxxx phrasing is frequently used. mo4 certain vs. certainer comes to mind. Probably there are rules that would guide us)
not bed time here of course! Sleep well....or weller or wellest...
ha. I choose the last one (err... latterest? lastest?).
omg the F words LOL LOL
*Hears the sound of pearls being clutched
only fair if merde is allowed :) and the C word
Merde and the c word are allowed
The f words have interesting etymology. Originally the singular meant fornication under consent of the king.
Hahahaha. I recall years ago here when a modest Babbler departed for the day when the C-word was in the grid.
I know they are allowed, that's why I said that.
And mo6 wins you a trip to the PB
Thanks, didn't see that :)
I see it now. *stuffing face with toasted bagels*
hello all. I miss the penalty box
Hi Peri. I am enjoying myself here in the penalty box.
are there cabana boys?
Yes, I am talking to Miguel now.
:)
Good old days
I always think of FM when I hear "penalty box"
So, Hugh Grant is playing an Ooompa Loompa in the new Willy Wonka movie :)
I miss FMitch. She was fun and funny.
yes she was
hello, I'm joining if there's also coconut drinks in there
I hope there are some sparkling drinks too :)

top E? all ey words
ty mael
ohh, I got to the F. lol
OH no, Norman Lear has died. He was 101.
I just heard that on the radio news.
He was with it right until the end too.
he was
I have an mo7 and an mo8 but not mo7/8
Norman Lear was a television great. He will be remembered always.
May I please have a clue for the mo8?
More humble
ty Molly

I have 1
yo4, ye6
I don't have the ye6.
it helps to be a trekkie... it's a low rank in the navy/starfleet :)
Got it. A naval rank, I think.
that's what i said lol
Oh, my brain focused on Star Trek.
natural
sigh, gtg
salutations
hi Bea
this grid seems friendllier than yesterdays
it does
help with to7/8 please
peri - to cause suffering
ty
i've been waiting for that word to appear!
why?
because it's a great word
i can't say i'm a fan
off to luncheon
oh no,,,
left col grey!
what's wrong gemini?
is it the fact that "mosh" doesn't count??
alas
alas indeed, since i still need a lot of Ms
phantom: destroy
I had to look up a few words to finish this one.. words I'd not seen before. just a fyi
good morning everyone :)
Can't say I have ever thought of to7/8 as "great words".
hi nan
I kind of like that F in the corner. I tend to use it a lot in my language
hi ru. was just reading the chat -- surprised that our Brit loving hurshy thought of star trek for the ye 6. I always think of the Beefeaters guarding the Tower of London
you just can't figure out the brains of the trekkie people.. they're fanatics about the show
I can nevere remember if Star Trek was the one on TV or the movies
i got into trek before i got into british stuff.
trek = tv, our galaxy, future
wars = movies (first), galaxy far far away, long past
but now both have had both tv & movies, and books which may or may not be considered canonical
plus i heard that even Gene Roddenberry did not consider Star Trek V (movie) canonical
(he was the creator of trek) (George Lucas is wars)
but doctor who is even better than both :D
did realize the show had become a religion :)
yeah the canon is about as important to each fandom as it is in a religion! lol
but yeah i started watching trek reruns at age 7, because my dad watched 'em. so like if you asked my HS friends what i was most known for, it would be being a Trekkie.
watched the first runs and laughed whenever I saw a rerun - it seemed so ridiculous and phony.
I'm the rare nerd who has never watched much of Trek or Dr Who
Me either mael. Not a nerd but so not into either show.
it's not their fault good special effects didn't exist yet
doctor who has the same issue for the early years
Nan, you have cast aspersions on the altar of Star Trek
i can't find any more worrrrrrds
The Anglo-Saxon word for copulate is in the grid
yeah
but i already greyed the left col
woot, i found the other two Y words!
phantom: comment
sorry - slipped out for breakfast. You are correct about the terrible "special effects" but it also would have helped if Shatner could act
ah, well, there is that, too, lol
there's some meme that goes around about a game where someone randomly yells "SHATNER!" and everyone immediately has to over-act whatever they're doing
ok so i have to8 and 2 mo8, i don't see any other 8s having been called, does anybody have any?
only have one to 8 - part of a 7-8
do7/8/7/8
ohhh those are my missing D words so that will be good if i can find those
actually monkeyed those do's -- ridiculous looking I have to say
have the to 8 that causes distress - stats for the other?
no luck yet here
what makes you think there is another?
How do you "monkey" a word like that?
oh - I thought you said you had to 8 x2
no that's mo
may i have a D clue?
You would think they start with the opening to a room but lose a vowel
I tried the most obvious first 3 letters molly, then added everything I could think of to them
one would think they start with that... but they don't? or they do?
Loose the vowel
right, i just didn't know if the implication of "you would think" was "but you'd be wrong"
but i have been trying that, much as cnan described, to no avail
oHO got one pair of them at last
Add what an ascot goes around
and there is the other
yay thanks
Change the vowel in what the ascot goes around
now i have all the 7s! one more 8 to find
Like Nan said, ridiculous
wouldn't you know it, another kind of fabric
i've already forgotten the one we had the other day
wandal or something??
no it was WADMAL
i shall try to remember them together. do7 and wadmal.
Yeah, you probably will remember them
top row grey!
are there any cu words?
yes, cu6/7 pair and cu4, at the very least
oh found a cu 4
the 6/7 go well with those F words...
still missing c x2
bottom row grey!!!
well if you only need 2 C then those are the ones i just mentioned and i guess i do not need any more CU for my last 3 C words
andd m x 11 - ouch
oh - ty hurshy
oooh i just found a buncha Ms that i had sillily missed
c's done
now for the m's
my favourite lemons are there - but alas, a proper noun
can you tell me how many CE words? i have 10 so far
oh - the french subway
lemon tree, very pretty and the lemon flower is sweet but the fruit of the poor lemon is impossible to eat
phantom: remorse
you have all of the ce's
ok then i must need 3 more CO!! gah
got one...
cu x3 and the rest are all co's and all normal except one co 6 and typed that in by accident
clue it?
oh maybe i found it
is it like, you're out cold, but minus "at"?
there are far too many m's in this grid. Think it is time for me to list
yes, that was the one
9 to go!
ohhh, the ice man co6
ty hurshy
yw
oh and the last 8 is re8
more normal than many of the other 8s
done
finding words new to me that I would never have found without the list
finished the grid or the c's?
*!*~*!* Hagd everyone :)
i wasn't referring to the to7/8 as the great word in the grid.
Well if you read over the chat where Peri asked for that to7/8 and you then said you had been waiting for "that word" to appear and it's a great word, it seemed like that was what you meant.
i understand that
nameste
howdy folks
ugh, these c's
phantom commode. do ghost need a commode?
... no ...but the not quite there commodore might
the comodore might need a comode
ugh, the M's aren't any better
FW! My helpful hint is that if you think the word is there but you don't see it, try the same letter from the other side. Several like that today!
congrats! and yes, already happened with re6 (tv accessory)
FourWords! Got all my 4-words!
but, onwards...
any hints for ye?
