Happy babbling tomorrow, I'll be in the air

10:46 am

moussaka_thief

what on earth does 5/14 mean? sorry, am new therefore do not understand the abbreviations

10:47 am

mkl

Bunny, did you get the et word for "drawing"?

10:47 am

moussaka_thief

i think i already got that word though

10:47 am

floesy

5 means # of letters in a word/ 14 means pt value of the letters

10:48 am

abe79

Moussaka- eg 5/14 means that the first two letters are eg; the word is 5 letters; worth 14 points. see Angelsongs babble page link on bottom left for more explanations

10:48 am

bunnyvicious

YW Button.
Moussa, there is a link at the bottom of the page under friends of babble, Angelsongs, explains the game. 5/14 = 5 letters, 14 points.

10:48 am

moussaka_thief

oh okay thanks

10:48 am

bunnyvicious

mkl, yeah

10:48 am

Scarlet

Moussaka, go to the bottom of the puzzle page and look at lickety'slist for length and values assigned

10:49 am

bunnyvicious

I'm down to 8 left without the list...few more minutes and I might make a break for it.

10:49 am

abe79

you can do it Bunny!

10:49 am

mkl

Moussaka, 5 letters doubles the points, 6 letters triples, 7 letters quadruples, and so on.

10:49 am

72 Temple Owl

hey bunny! how are you?

10:50 am

bunnyvicious

Usually I ask because I get lazy towards the end.

10:57 am

mkl

Sometimes I ask because I'm just dense, like today.

11:51 am

Merk

Oh, duh on the 4,5. Another word for semester in school.

11:51 am

purplepufff

I take it you already know
Of tough and bough and cough and dough?
Others may stumble, but not you,
On hiccough, thorough, lough and through?
Well done! And now you wish, perhaps,
To learn of less familiar traps?
Beware of heard, a dreadful word
That looks like beard and sounds like bird,
And dead: it's said like bed, not bead -
For goodness sake don't call it deed!
Watch out for meat and great and threat
(They rhyme with suite and straight and debt).

11:51 am

periwinkle

Hi all, tu5/14 and tur/18?

11:51 am

Merk

Never heard of the 6,21 before.

11:52 am

Denny

Thanks Caitlyn - she's just had her first fish!

11:52 am

purplepufff

A moth is not a moth in mother,
Nor both in bother, broth in brother,
And here is not a match for there
Nor dear and fear for bear and pear,
And then there's dose and rose and lose -
Just look them up - and goose and choose,
And cork and work and card and ward,
And font and front and word and sword,
And do and go and thwart and cart -
Come, come, I've hardly made a start!
A dreadful language? Man alive!
I'd mastered it when I was five!

11:52 am

I kept wanting to use fest, but it was not accepted. But in the dictionary, fest has two meanings, but fets has none. It sends you to the thesaurus. Now does that make sense?

12:31 pm

no sense letting the Christians or even the secular community monopolize things

TY metaleather. Life is amazing.

12:36 pm

metaleather

more so everyday if lived well

12:38 pm

Scarlet

Metaleather, you're creative, so you look at elements and "tools" in a totally different context than most... and some colours are music and the reverse is also true

12:38 pm

klaurel

curling up and resting before heading out and trick or treating with the kids

12:39 pm

moussaka_thief

hmm nayone got mu4/8?

12:39 pm

metaleather

ty Scarlet. this is definitely a cultivated, learned attitude for me. Although I've always been artsy fartsy... I'm also naturally depressed and glum so learning to see the beauty is not natural for me. It feels better than the other way, just not my natural first step., lol@self

12:39 pm

klaurel

BTW, Metal, I am agnostic at best. :) And we go to a Methodist church, so, not pagan at all

Hey, all, just in for a moment. That O on the bottom I have only two of the three -- the not-twos and the not-offset.

12:41 pm

metaleather

nods, no offense or assumption meant klaurel... I'm a "lapsed" LDS living with an atheist who might sorta almost be pagan if he wasn't so determined to buck the system and be an atheist

12:41 pm

bubba218

add second vowel to se 4,4 before it

12:41 pm

Moussaka Thief, we drink our coffee in mu**.

12:44 pm

moussaka_thief

12:45 pm

Is that fireworks Ank? Well done

12:45 pm

metaleather

good approach klaurel. easier for him to have something to base things on

12:45 pm

Thief, think BIG.

12:47 pm

Scarlet

The human race is always looking on the exterior to fill great, gaping vacuums within... so we create little atolls of amusement... the kicker is free will... will we participate or not? Always an interesting topic.

12:47 pm

moussaka_thief

not the BIG one!

12:47 pm

Hu 4,8 something that is really big

12:48 pm

metaleather

I was very into the whole deal years ago... then life changed, my research got stolen, life changed again... and all of a sudden, I'lm in my late forties, no kids and the whole thought of genealogy just makes me sad...

12:48 pm

metaleather

for me anyway

12:48 pm

metaleather

I don't have the heart to do all that research over again

12:49 pm

moussaka_thief

oh dear D:

12:50 pm

Scarlet

Ank... not trying for erudite... just responding to the entire pagan vs other spiritual approaches to specific days on the calendar, and the bubbling pot of stew it usually creates!

12:50 pm

:( sorry Metal

12:50 pm

Pain, stupidity, aggressive block-headedness and many personal bad choices can either kill you or give you a micron of wisdom. I opted to stay alive and treasure each day! Compassion is second nature... and I have my own scars to prove it!

ce 6 is the shakespeare word for "of course"

7:58 pm

JeeWhiz

Temple...add carpet to the t, and then plural

7:58 pm

Jacula

TO - the tr4 is a basket for carrying cut flowers or veg in the garden. The tr5 is the plural.

7:58 pm

stidmama

tr 4: shallow basket for carrying flowers, sounds like dr**store... then plural

7:58 pm

jillibus

TO - the tr words are a kind of basket and pl -- t + carpet

7:59 pm

JeeWhiz

8:04 pm

72 Temple Owl

8:04 pm

8:05 pm

stidmama

spooky disappearing words again, eh? *strange music from beyond...*

8:05 pm

Jacula

I hear the theme from 'The Twilight Zone' .

8:06 pm

Jacula

Speaking of themes, tomorrow's is 'light fittings/lamp shades'. Wondering whether to scan in an old pic of my daughter dressed as Lucy Lamp Lady from Letterland.

8:07 pm

72 Temple Owl

ok still missing one t4 and one s4

8:07 pm

stidmama

light fittings? oh dear, I don't know what to do for that, might just go back to my usual icon.

8:08 pm

stidmama

TO, the T4 are te x 4, tr, tu x2

8:09 pm

72 Temple Owl

ty stid

8:09 pm

Jacula

s4's - se4/5 - religious group, se4/4 - the letter has been posted; it is se**, so4/4 - male offsping + a vowel. st4/4 - printing/copyreading mark meaning 'leave as it was before'. st4/6 - like the twanging the guitar strings word before it but minus a consonant.

8:10 pm

arleneehm

The t4's: te4/6 - 2-yr-old sheep (rhymes with what you use to keep the washing on the line), te4/5 - school period in UK or te4 of office. te4/5 - examination. te4/4 - sounds like French for heads minus a vowel.

8:13 pm

Jacula

'Night Stid.x

8:14 pm

Jacula

8:19 pm

Jacula

Is that what you call them in USA?

8:19 pm

72 Temple Owl

yes - but i ealized after looking at the grid that you had to call them pegs

8:20 pm

Jacula

daisy - my ex and I had mostly paper shades from Habitat in our first house. These days, I have lots of fancy light fittings in my home - harder to keep clean than the simple old paper ones, though.:(

8:20 pm

mrwrite

Any clue for the 8?

8:21 pm

tndaisy1960

*sigh* this house needs so much done to it...it would be easier to bulldoze it and start over, as far as I'm concerned....but he insists on making a silk purse from a sow's ear...

8:21 pm

Jacula

The one here in the study/office is the worst; being 3 upward-facing 'handkerchief shades. They get full of dead insects!

8:21 pm

tndaisy1960

eww Jac...I pity you.

8:21 pm

pam

hi, all

8:22 pm

Jacula

mrwrite - wr8/70 - poor souls. 'Amazing Grace, how sweet the sound that saved a wr6/36 like me...'

8:22 pm

Jacula

Hi Pam.

8:22 pm

tndaisy1960

bbl all...Techzilla is hungry.

8:23 pm

Jacula

daisy - we've discovered the car vac hoovers them up without the need to dismantle the light. Cranefly season is the worst time!

8:23 pm

mrwrite

Doh. I had the basis of that word (i.e., to visit the porcelain god), but hadn't thought to add the w

8:23 pm

72 Temple Owl

lol daisy! i feel the same way about mine!
hi pam!

8:23 pm

Jacula

mrwrite - that's the re5/14 & 7/36 for worshipping the toilet God. LOL.

8:24 pm

Jacula

I know you knew, mrwrite. Just added that clue for others.

8:25 pm

mrwrite

Aye. the re5/14 is also called the "technicolor yawn." It's sad, I know so many euphemisms for that.

8:25 pm

Jacula

LOL MrW!

8:26 pm

72 Temple Owl

well i have to go wsah my hair. business trip tomorrow. happy babbling and i will be back onthrusday or friday

8:26 pm

Jacula

I guess you know about pavement pizza, too? Or 'sidewalk' pizza as they may or may not say in USA.

8:26 pm

pam

speak not of them all, mrw--some of us are (barely) recovering from headache hell....

8:26 pm

pam

Good luck, TO

8:26 pm

72 Temple Owl

ewwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww

8:27 pm

pam

i second that reaction, TO!

8:27 pm

Jacula

Oops! Sorry Pam! Would you like some Beecham's 'Resolve'? It's wonderful for settling the stomach and the head.;)

8:27 pm

Jacula

See you, TO! Safe trip.

8:28 pm

pam

LOL, Jac
It's a nasty sinus migraine combined with the stress...I have good meds.....

8:28 pm

Jacula

That's okay then, pam. Sinus pain is awful.

8:29 pm

pam

indeed it is...

8:29 pm

Jacula

How can you even look at a computer screen with a migraine? Or do you have a filter?

8:30 pm

pam

I am post... and I have long learned to deal enough with all but the worst of the sinus ones

8:30 pm

pam

What can I say? For the longest time, I didn't even have good pain abatement, I thought I just always had a headache...

8:31 pm

Jacula

To be honest, I've only ever had 2 migraines in my life so far - both caused by overlong exposure to early computer screens (back in the 70s).

8:31 pm

Jacula

I have a few incidences of sinus pain though.

8:31 pm

pam

those screens were the worst--my ibook is HUGE improvement on the computers I worked on in the early 80's

8:32 pm

pam

the barometric pressure can trigger mine, as do hormones --which are then different headaches....

8:33 pm

Jacula

My Other Half sometimes gets weather and or stress migraines. The monitor we have now is okay for him. Technology has come a long way since the 70s/80s.

8:34 pm

Jacula

I get a headache well before a thunderstorm is due, but not a migraine headache.

8:34 pm

pam

I feel for him, Jac
and, some techno advances are sooooo cooool

8:34 pm

Jacula

I know the hormonal headaches, too.:(

8:34 pm

I guess it's all a spectrum....

8:35 pm

8:42 pm

pam

8:42 pm

aknitter

8:42 pm

Jacula

gwenski - ch7 - real meaning is:a coin and monetary unit of Bhutan, the hundredth part of a ngultrum. I'd go with aknitter's clue, if I were you!

8:42 pm

jillibus

ou7 - I ou**** my clothes when I gained weight

8:49 pm

jillibus

8:50 pm

72 Temple Owl

i don't know why it kept looking like a dr - it seemed to be a customer service rep of some sort

8:51 pm

72 Temple Owl

jjili - do you think so?

8:51 pm

Jacula

Who, Doctor Doctor? (The incredibly superstitious one.)

8:52 pm

Jacula

Jacula

Drat! You've already got it!

8:54 pm

jillibus

I'd like to clue it as humungousest but the hu might be confusing

8:54 pm

Jacula

jilli - that is NOT a word and TO should not have got the answer from that clue! ROFLOL. (Oh, I love Babble!)

8:55 pm

9:15 pm

9:44 pm

mkl

Where's he stationed?

9:45 pm

Jacula

I got hardly any trick or treaters because I stuck up a police notice telling them to bugger off. I don't mind the little kids, in home-made costumes, who come with adults for fun or sweets. What I do hate is the older kids who just want money for booze, fags (cigarettes) or drugs. I went out to the local shop earlier, after hearing much shuffling outside my porch and ran into a whol gang of at least a dozen older lads with masks and IRA-type balaclavas on. I pointed to my sign before I opened the door. 'I'm blind!' the lad with the 'scream' mask told me. 'I hope you don't trip over then!' I replied. We all walked off my drive together,... 'trick or treat?' asked one masked lad. I shrugged. 'Have you got a pound then?' he asked. 'If I had,' said I. 'I'll be spending it in the shop for a lettuce for our dinner!' We all walked over to the shop together, no one snatched my purse and every one of them failed to pinch something from the shop.

9:45 pm

aknitter

Don't know if you know where it is Mamabear, but I was born in Fulton Illinois

9:48 pm

Jacula

Hi Harp.

9:49 pm

mamabear

can't say I ever heard of Fulton, mkl - whereabouts in IL is it?

9:49 pm

mkl

Iowa, Illinois border. About two hours from you.

9:49 pm

harpjane

It's very coldl here, around 10 F, so we had way fewer trick or treaters than usual, only about 300!

9:50 pm

mkl

Wow. You're colder than we are right now.

9:50 pm

babbz

jac - do trick or treaters in the UK beg for money?

9:50 pm

mkl

Does anyone give out popcorn balls anymore?

9:50 pm

mamabear

North Dakota was supposed to get 5 or 6 inches of snow today

9:50 pm

Jacula

Do you need any clues, Harp?

9:51 pm

mamabear

popcorn balls are iffy, since some people put razor blades in them in the past

9:51 pm

Jacula

babbz - Yes - as I said in my earlier posting. It's older kids who ask for money. It's for booze, cigs, drugs or fireworks.

9:51 pm

babbz

harpjane where in montana are you? My daughter went to college in bozeman and my son lives in woming.

9:51 pm

9:52 pm

harpjane

There's a family on our block that gives out popcorn. They stopped one year, because they were concerned about the problems, but the kids all asked where the popcorn was.... i think we live in a little shangrila or something. I'm in Hamilton, 45 miles south of Missoula

9:52 pm

mamabear

hi greengeeny!!!!! HAPPY BOO day to you too!

9:53 pm

babbz

wowsa, I can see where you'd be ticked off. We would probably crack up laughing if anyone asked for $$ here = it's such a bizarre tradition, this trick or treating and begging for candy.

9:53 pm

9:55 pm

greengeeny

Well, we had a blast!! This is probably the last year that Andrew will trick or treat, and he had so much fun. He made his own costume...a ghoul. And, Christian is just at the age where he was so excited about people giving him candy. I made his costume...he was a robot. Everybody seems to have a negative feeling about Halloween, but we had a good time.

9:55 pm

Jacula

(I reckon Harp is as stubborn as me, when it comes to asking for clues versus finding the damned words even if it kills you.);)

mamabear

Buttonman

10:09 pm

Buttonman

10:09 pm

Jacula

ce6/21 - short for piece of paper you get for passing an exam (not a diploma) + the sound (in 2 letters) of the 19th letter of the alphabet.

10:09 pm

mamabear

to take an exam again

10:09 pm

gwmc

10:09 pm

Jacula

10:09 pm

Buttonman

10:10 pm

mamabear

re 6 - to take an exam again

10:10 pm

gwmc

se 5/10 would have me finished...

10:11 pm

mamabear

add a vowel to the end of the se 4/4, gwmc

10:11 pm

Buttonman

fireworks

10:11 pm

Jacula

re6 - if you've been to hospital, or to the garage again, one before, and the problem has nor been detected... then a re*** (re-examination) may help with a diagnosis.

10:11 pm

mamabear

OK. I gotta go now.... nite all!!!!!!! CONGRATS BUTONMAN!!!!

10:11 pm

Jacula

Well done, button!

10:11 pm

10:12 pm

Buttonman

goodnite Mama

10:12 pm

Buttonman

Goodnight all, I am turning in too

10:12 pm

Jacula

se5/10 - wht you did when you posted the letter or parcel + a vowel.

10:14 pm

Jacula

'Where's my cheque?' 'I don't know! I've definitely se** it to you!'

10:14 pm

gwmc

Thanks, got the se5. Too bad it's not in my word list....

10:14 pm

Jacula

Fireworks for you then, gwmc?

10:15 pm

gwmc

I thought there were supposed to be some! Unfortunately, I'm not seeing or hearing anything...

10:17 pm

Jacula

gwmc - Have you been a non-paying (non-pro) member of this site for more than a fornight (two weeks)? If so, that's why yu are not getting the stats or the fireworks now.

10:17 pm

Jacula

*fortnight

10:18 pm

gwmc

I thought as much. Guess I'm gonna have to pony up the cash...I'm in the US, but I know what a fortnight is. I'm also familiar with Guy Fawkes.

10:18 pm

autumn moon

I just can't find that mo5/16...help?

10:18 pm

Jacula

Going 'pro' on this site cost around $14 something, or around Â£7.50 in UK terms. Not much for lifetime membership.

10:20 pm

Jacula

mo5/16 = mo + 'she/that woman' with a different vowel in the middle.

10:20 pm

gwmc

Guess I'm gonna go delete some spam. Thanks again and see y'all later.

10:20 pm

Jacula

No use me saying it's how Cilla Black would pronounce the stuff on your head, I guess.:(

10:21 pm

greengeeny

37 left...just started when I said happy halloween...this is the fastest that I have completed so much!!

10:21 pm

autumn moon

Thx Jac....Couldn't see it for all the other words I think are there, that aren't

10:21 pm

Jacula

gwmc - that's just what I did when I finished Babble earlier. I went away for a week last week and had 39 spam in one place, 10 in another and 4 in another to get rid of.

10:22 pm

Jacula

autumn moon (lovely name!) - we call those phantom words.

10:23 pm

autumn moon

Thx again, Jac. It's the translation of my chinese name

10:23 pm

Jacula

Unless, of course, the word 'phantom' is in the grid... then we'd say what you just said.

10:24 pm

Eggcorn

I call them words outside the grid; or WOTG's

10:24 pm

Jacula

Good description, Eggcorn.

10:24 pm

autumn moon

I actually have a tendency to call them !@#$% because they aren't in the list!! lol

10:25 pm

Jacula

LOL, autumn! Incidentally, what site, if any, did you get your translation of your name from? I'd like to know what my own is (real name, that is).

10:26 pm

Jacula

Mind you, these days, with so many people on the net and in real life calling me Jacula...sigh!

10:26 pm

autumn moon

Jac...it's my real chinese name, translated into English.

10:27 pm

Jacula

Autumn - is there any way of doing the reverse?

10:28 pm

Jacula

I guess 'Jacula' is 'night being' or something?

10:28 pm

Jacula

I'm a night owl, mostly, for sure.

10:28 pm

autumn moon

When naming our 'non-asian' friends and spouses, we usually find the meaning of their name and then ask one of the uncles to find a translation that sounds good.

10:28 pm

Jacula

Which is how I got my internet name...

10:29 pm

Jacula

autumn - unfortunately, my real full name means 'usurper'.:(

10:30 pm

Jacula

Ist name, that is.

10:30 pm

autumn moon

I'll ask for the translation of something to do with the night. Look up your name in other languages to see if you can find something you like

10:31 pm

autumn moon

I have 27 to go and I want to try to finish this one tonight without my dictionary

10:32 pm

Jacula

I know what my name means, autumn. It's very negative with my ex-married surname but positive with my former (rare) surname.

10:32 pm

Jacula

Ask for clues, autumn, and I will give.

autumn - click on my icon for my profile :D

10:42 pm

jillibus

You mean just now, jac? From supper - lol

10:43 pm

Jacula

I had relatives on Vancouver Island, but nw they've moved to Courtice, Ontario.

10:43 pm

autumn moon

Jilli....May have to talk to you about your danes. Hubby wants one. I think they drool too much. I have 11 left so I am going to be ignoring the chat until I finish.

10:43 pm

libarebel

hi, all-- jilli, you are scary! great icon!

10:43 pm

jillibus

good heavens, jac, whyever?

10:43 pm

Jacula

I do, jilli.

10:44 pm

Jacula

Hearing that old rock track now...'Seems like a long time...'

10:44 pm

jillibus

Danes don't drool if they're properly bred

10:45 pm

jillibus

hi lib -- boo!

10:45 pm

libarebel

eek!

10:46 pm

greengeeny

ou7 anyone?

10:46 pm

Jacula

Jilli - relatives got older? That's why they moved? Don't know. Assume Danes advice relates to Great Danes? Still hearing Rod Stewart re the long time song. LOL.

10:46 pm

Jacula

ou7 - if you got too big or fat for your clothes, you ou7 them!

10:47 pm

libarebel

I ou7 my size 8 shoes

10:47 pm

libarebel

I ou7 my size 8 shoes

10:48 pm

Jacula

A child may ou7 her shoes. and when yu tell people about it, it will be past tense, you'll tell them she ou7 them!

10:48 pm

jillibus

yes, jac, Great Danes. As for the relatives leaving balmy Vancouver Island for freezing Ontario with heat, humidity and bugs in the summer -- who knows what reasons people have!

10:48 pm

greengeeny

10:49 pm

jillibus

ask and ye shall receive, gg!

10:49 pm

Jacula

jilli - No idea, re the relatives in Canada, but I do know Ontario was where they started off about 35 years ago.

10:49 pm

Eggcorn

must be quite a place with freezing heat

10:50 pm

jillibus

one extreme to the other, eggy!

10:50 pm

greengeeny

first te4 and te6??

10:51 pm

Jacula

I've not visited them over there yet, though they have been back 4 times to see all of us, or for funerals etc. Got a great photo of my late gran over there though in a typical gran pose... she's standing by the statue of a Red Indian and feeling his bum! LOL. It's my favourite pic of her.

10:51 pm

jillibus

first te rhymes with ova but is minus one cons

10:52 pm

jillibus

te6 is like an earthquake but with 2nd and 3rd letters reversed

10:53 pm

greengeeny

I have that te6...need the one before it..

10:53 pm

jillibus

jac - naughty granny! Guess you take after her?

10:53 pm

Jacula

te4/6 - sheep in their 2nd yea of before 1st shearing. Rhymes with (apparently, as I learned tonight) UK word for the things you keep your washing on the line with. (Little Margerets? Old fashioned shortener for Margaret.)

10:53 pm

jillibus

the other te 6 -- cons + chewy stuff

10:54 pm

10:57 pm

autumn moon

FINALLY!!! Jilli...I know its all in the breeding and the size of the flukes.

10:57 pm

Jacula

Guess not! tr's are a shallow basket used in the garden for holding cut flowers of vegetables.

10:57 pm

jillibus
