Gabbyrell, try a different "H." I found most of those words around one particular letter.

12:41 am

Gabbyrell, an h5/34 uses the z, but if you click on the little definition "?" by the word it doesn't have an entry for it... weird.

12:43 am

okay

12:28 pm

There's an n4/5 as well.

12:29 pm

N5/12

12:30 pm

N5/12 - reminds me of Metallica.

12:41 pm

i cant find but ONE a word..am so stuck.

12:44 pm

ty

12:44 pm

i have only found 76 words..and have been working on this for an hour and a half...i am getting discouraged..the clues are greek to me..ack.

12:47 pm

LOL, anything remind you of Frank?..am old..ha. My son knows metallica stuff..not me!!

12:48 pm

a6/21 - a kind of mosquito! Bagged out last night at 91/1254. Took me an hour today just to find one more word. This is one tough grid!

12:53 pm

I sure dont have THAT A word..just a simple one..(like me)..mosquito eh? ty.

12:59 pm

u5/10 x2

1:01 pm

Gah. Three As so far but no mosquito.

1:04 pm

sfneil - what other As do you have? Except for the mosquito, all I've got is the obvious a4/4...

1:07 pm

one is your a4 with an extra letter, that I can't find a definition for, but I suppose could be a plural form. Plus I just realized my other a IS the mosquito... I just typed it in as a guess! So still one more A to find.

1:17 pm

Fneh. Taking a break with 98. Can't believe there are 7 Ps I can't find. Like I said, fneh.

1:18 pm

The last A is an a5/14. Got it by guessing -- never seen it before. But if it helps, it's an old French measure of land: about an acre.

1:19 pm

Yeah I'm taking a break, too. I need coffee!

1:20 pm

I HATE the A's!!!! lol. I now have 2 of the (swear word) I even went through a dictionary..(which I hate to do)..A words suck..(ha, wait til i get to the other words..i dont know you may hear a barrage of swearing, followed closely by apoplexy!!)

1:26 pm

Thanks, sfneil. Got the French acre and am nearly blissful at being able to cross A off of my list.

a6/21 - A mosquito of the genus Aëdes, including A. aegypti, which transmits diseases such as yellow fever and dengue

sorry about that... a6/21 - A mosquito of the genus Aedes, including A. aegypti, which transmits diseases such as yellow fever and dengue

1:59 pm

u5/14 x 3

2:03 pm

u5/14 x 4

2:15 pm

Any clues for the 4th a? I've got the obvious a4, the mosquito and the french measure of land...What am I missing?

2:16 pm

Down to the last u. u6x2, u7,u5x7, and u4.

2:17 pm

sj- add a vowel to the end of one of your a's.

2:18 pm

Thanks smithchick! Any other hints you might want to part with :)

2:18 pm

If p5/16 past tense to open is acceptable, why is it's oposite u7 not?

2:21 pm

For the life of me I can't get the French measure of land. Any help??

2:23 pm

a5/14: According to Columella, a Gallic word for a measure equiv. to half a Roman jugerum. Formerly, a measure of land in France, varying in different parts of the country

2:24 pm

Cagey: add another vowel to your a 4/4

2:27 pm

I have m4/6, m5/14, m6/24 and m4/6 in alpha order...which am I missing?

2:31 pm

PAV3 - I've got that one I think - I've got a6/21, a4/4, and a5/10 - I think I'm missing and a5/14 right??

2:31 pm

smithchick - u6x3

2:33 pm

PAV3 - m7/36

2:38 pm

Any hints on the u7?

2:38 pm

hints on the m7?

2:40 pm

M7 - add a letter to the M6

2:41 pm

u7/36 - a fruit that's even less mature than another one could be described as this.

2:41 pm

U7 - Not sure this helps but.. Not fully ready or prepared.

2:42 pm

hmm. the only thing I think of there is a word that's not on the grid. :)

2:47 pm

how many m6 are there? I can't figure how to add a letter to mine to make it an m7....

2:49 pm

Nicole - a person that uses the m6 might be called the m7

2:50 pm

ah, that m6 can be made in two ways, and I was looking at the wrong one! Still trying to figure out the u7...

2:51 pm

add a letter to u6/24

2:52 pm

has anyone made headway on the i words?

2:52 pm

thank you cagey - it made sense now.

2:55 pm

i4/5, i5/10

104 words and I am giving up to go watch the Red Sox. No computers in the ER, nope. Good night.

7:08 pm

7:17 pm

IceBoy once more to the rescue... thanks! Man, I am blind today! Now all I need is an R and a U and I can go back to having a life!

7:24 pm

jfactor: yep -- add the de to one of your p4/8 words ....

So words don't have to have actual definitions to be considered words?

7:31 pm

anyone want to try to explain that to bakedpotatoesoup !!! It's one of the great Babble mysteries!

Sorry, this is my first time playing. Do you just keep plugging in random combinations and hope it's a word?

7:36 pm

repost: Today's babble stats: 7 x 8 6 x 19 5 x 36 4 x 56 --- 119 words --- A -- 4 D -- 9 E -- 3 H -- 16 i -- 2 M -- 5 N -- 3 P -- 38 R -- 26 U -- 12 Z -- 1

7:36 pm

bakedpotatosoup: I was joking because we do sometimes have words that do show a definition when you click on that little box that has the ? mark in it [next to each word in the list]. All of us do what you're doing - call it 'noodling' - and I've expanded my vocabulary by learning new words that way! Of course, no one I know except other Babblers know them!! LOL Please do ask any questions - and we'll try to answer them. Welcome!!

7:36 pm

Ugh. Finally done. Thanks for all the help, everyone... especially IceBoySF!

7:37 pm

oops - type --- words that do NOT show a definition!! sorry

8:04 pm

10:31 pm

this is sad...i'm missing an r4 and a u6

10:34 pm

katesmom, scroll down a bit for the stats; you have to wait till after the puzzle closes to see all the words- click on the name of someone who got them all to see their word list.

not to worry, sage. everyone who's going to beat this one has done so already. I for one am desperately trying not to munch it too bad on this one. I only have 93, and running on fumes.
