my first ever 8!!!!!! Hooray!!!!!

7:47 am

Dragoncarer

what???????? i can't believe it just accepted the french naughty word!!! WTF??????? This game is so crooked! It won't accept 'Irish', but it will accept 'Welsh' and a completely french word which has a definite English equivalent???? Can I just point out how ridiculously unfair that is? Can I???!?!?!?! Mind you...points points points!

7:52 am

ciel

Wow, and it's even worth 13 points.

7:54 am

biped

you're right, of course, but babble accepts welsh as the verb 'to welcs = not paying debts', not as an adjective describing things from Wales

7:59 am

Dragoncarer

what? To welsh? I checked a couple of dictionaries and I didn't find a definition as that, only pertaining to Wales or the language...funny. American word? Meanwhile, 'Merkin' is not accepted! MERKIN!!!! grrrr

7:59 am
