11:38 am

MollyL

Negro is a proper noun, thus not recognized by Enable

11:44 am

Dmchez

Thank you Molly

11:44 am

TheByzantine

Help:
TYPES OF WORDS NOT ALLOWED
Proper nouns, abbreviations, contractions, hyphenated words and foreign words THAT ARE NOT IN THE ENABLE DICTIONARY.

The contingent precedent to acceptability is whether the word is in the Dictionary.

11:52 am

Judi

Which must always be followed by the caveat: "Enable sucks".

11:53 am

Judi

Greetings, all!

11:57 am

TheByzantine

Seems an accurate assessment. There are times a word in the dictionary is not accepted in favor of another word. The program tells us the unaccepted word is not in the dictionary? Quite bogus.

am4.6 was my mom's first bank-issued PIN. After that Was 'navy' then 'army'. After that she started choosing her own. :)

12:26 pm

hurshy

aw MAN, can't do geronimo

12:27 pm

dcseain

yeah, proper name, even if an exclamation.

12:28 pm

hurshy

adonis started as a proper name and can now be used as a common noun. i believe geronimo has reached the same level of usage.

12:35 pm

dcseain

true. as with valenitne

12:35 pm

dcseain

and zipper

3:52 pm

cybernan

3:53 pm

m9f9l

4:11 pm

Uneaixoise

4:12 pm

4:14 pm

while looking for the en6/27 I'm listening to the Vaughn Williams variations and I still didn't get it ... lordy these senior's moments are getting longer every day ... ... time to take another break

4:25 pm

Gillie

Elgar's variations, you mean?

4:26 pm

cybernan

first fe 6 please

4:28 pm

m9f9l

weird variation on fantasy figures

4:28 pm

Gillie

Also plural of fe5.

4:28 pm

m9f9l

although I guess it's scottish for healthy.

4:29 pm

72 Temple Owl

noma

4:29 pm

Gillie

Oh, that fe6! Sorry.

4:31 pm

therealblah

i didn't have either so thx gillie and m9

4:31 pm

cybernan

have the winged fantasy creatures -- a variation of that?

4:32 pm

cybernan

no idea on the scots healty -- thought that was sonsie

4:32 pm

therealblah

yes nan, start with fe instead of fa

4:32 pm

m9f9l

THanks for the Vaughan Williams.. now listening to Fantasia on a theme of Thomas Tallis because of it.

4:33 pm

m9f9l

wow. If you like it then you should have put an ing on it.

4:34 pm

4:38 pm

cybernan

ig 8 please?

4:39 pm

cybernan

nm -- what a dumb dumb word

4:39 pm

cybernan

we'll have arsonifies and arsonifiers next!

4:41 pm

cybernan

I think the rule of thumb these days is that if you don't have anything interesting or profound to contribute, then you makes up words so that it sounds like you do

4:42 pm

72 Temple Owl

well, conversate is now a word.

4:42 pm

cybernan

I rest my case!

4:43 pm

cybernan

I'm surprised we don't have longifies

4:44 pm

72 Temple Owl

the parts of speech are no longer taught. so what can we expect? teachers try so hard to get kids to write that it matters not if they spell correctly or use proper tenses etc. just look at the clues here on any given day, you'd think there was no such thing as tenses.

4:44 pm

72 Temple Owl

were no such things as tenses.

4:45 pm

cybernan

remember the days when we had to parse sentences as a grammar exercise?

4:45 pm

therealblah

yes!

4:46 pm

cybernan

lo 8 please?

4:46 pm

72 Temple Owl

subjects, verbs and predicates? you pedant you!

4:47 pm

72 Temple Owl

totally irrelevant in the modern world@

4:47 pm

ivesy3

nan ..havent seen you in a lo****** !

4:47 pm

72 Temple Owl

oh you have to be kidding me!

4:47 pm

cybernan

ty ivesy -- wonder when that became a compound word?

4:48 pm

therealblah

seriously, that's one word?!

4:48 pm

ivesy3

in babble its one word lol

4:48 pm

ivesy3

yw

4:48 pm

cybernan

and phrases, dangling participles as well as parts of speech

4:48 pm

therealblah

yeah always have to remember that disclaimer

4:49 pm

72 Temple Owl

verbs, nouns, adjectives, adverbs.

4:50 pm

cybernan

I guess in the modern world poor spelling and poor grammar is no longer an indication of a poor education,

4:53 pm

72 Temple Owl

apparently. i went through a masters cohort with coworkers. i was astounded and the cohort format puts the work on those able so those who should not be there get degress.

4:54 pm

hurshy

it actually is not weird for that to be one word

4:54 pm

ChampFit

Out of lurking to mention that the lo8 is bull poop!

4:54 pm

hurshy

his eulogy was given by his lo8 friend, Charles

4:55 pm

therealblah

ah thx hurshy, it does work in that context

4:55 pm

72 Temple Owl

i have no doubt that a modern dictionary would show it acceptable. usage dictates propriety, not the other way around, these days.

4:55 pm

ChampFit

Well, there ya go. I immediately when to the two word meaning.

4:55 pm

therealblah

but not 'i haven't seen you in a lo8' lol

4:55 pm

hurshy

yeah i mean i can see why people think it sounds weird in a "haven't seen you in a lo8", but, if you think about it you probably have seen it used the way i used it :)

4:56 pm

72 Temple Owl

i thought it was hyphenated.

4:57 pm

therealblah

well, it still makes me crazy to get an email with poor grammar and incorrect spelling. call me old-fashioned :)

4:57 pm

hurshy

me too, blah!

4:58 pm

hurshy

but then, i (like so many of us) don't bother with caps most of the time, and frequently drop punctuation also, so...

4:58 pm

hurshy

i wonder why it is that some of the grammatical conventions seem more important to me, and others (like capitalization) don't?

5:01 pm

ChampFit

My teenage daughter chastised me for my excessive use of periods in texts. Basically ANY use of periods is excessive. I went to Catholic school...I use punctuation!

5:01 pm

therealblah

my emails always have proper formatting (caps etc)...chat, not so much lol

5:02 pm

therealblah

i was shocked - shocked! - to find out that you no longer type 2 spaces after a period. Apparently that was back in the typewriter days so the keys did not get stuck. :P

5:03 pm

ChampFit

True!!! It's how the younger peep know our age...approximately. There is no way on this earth I could change that at this late date.

5:04 pm

72 Temple Owl

it looks funny,doesn't it?

5:04 pm

therealblah

i know! i have to be very mindful to not type the 2 spaces automatically

5:05 pm

ChampFit

I can't do it. It's automatic. It would slow me down too much. And possibly make my brain explode. :)

5:05 pm

therealblah

lol, i know the feeling

5:07 pm

therealblah

but i used to write a lot for work and the editors would yell at me when i used 2 spaces, so i'm somewhat rehabilitated...not entirely...

5:07 pm

ChampFit

That's like the nuns trying to change my dad from being left-handed...which also didn't work!

5:08 pm

therealblah

my brother is ambidextrous thanks to the nuns

5:09 pm

ChampFit

Didn't work with my dad. But then again, he was a different kind of stubborn.

5:10 pm

therealblah

wonder how many times he was called the devil's spawn lol

5:11 pm

ChampFit

Clue for the right column O please?

5:12 pm

ChampFit

nvm...it was a cousin to the other word...gahhhh!

5:13 pm

cybernan

on 6 -- a little like the lo 8

5:14 pm

ChampFit

Yes, thank you!

5:16 pm

cybernan

first si 7 please?

5:17 pm

cybernan

nm - got it -- so used to spelling that word with an sy at the beginning

5:18 pm

ChampFit

I haven't listed, but have one that comes after si 6/24?

5:18 pm

cybernan

no -- this is a 7/28 -- part of the formula for glass or pottery glaze

5:19 pm

cybernan

and usually spelled sy*****

5:19 pm

ChampFit

ty

5:22 pm

periwinkle

5:22 pm

is the si 6/24 a root for the 7/36? - don't have either

5:23 pm

I have 3 si 6/24s. One is a root of the 7/36.

5:24 pm

ChampFit

5:25 pm

cybernan

5:29 pm

5:30 pm

5:32 pm

cybernan

5:34 pm

MollyL

One who flees from their country for political reasons

5:35 pm

5:35 pm

MollyL

Well, you never know with this game

5:35 pm

cybernan

5:37 pm
