Hello again. A friend gave me an Arum (Calla) lily and it is weeping. l tried to find out why in Google. Does anybody in this smart room know about that?

4:14 am

rubyfoo

Is it sad to be out of the greenhouse?

4:21 am

MollyL

Apparently it is normal and it is the plant getting rid of excess moisture. "Sweating" if you will.

4:22 am

MollyL

What I read said it is normal and shows that the lily has a well functioning vascular system. It also says call lilies are the symbol of rebirth. Nice.

4:28 am

MollyL

*Calla

4:44 am

rubyfoo

Hello Molly. l tried to find that in Google but couldn't, so thank you. ldid learn, hower, that it is considered a noxious and toxic weed in Australia and New Zealand. What do theyt knoiw? LOL

4:44 am

rubyfoo

however*

4:59 am

MollyL

I guess the calla lilies are taking over all the land they need to grow wheat for that vegemite stuff.

lbdawger

sorry for the multi postings, my enter key got stuck. *blush*

5:11 am

MollyL

They are not normal and also not made up. They fall into the "Old English" category. Which, to me, makes them too ancient for qualification. But you know how those geek Enable word list makers are.

5:17 am

lbdawger

thank you Molly. I'm embarrassed as the corner letter is missing on my grid so my brain didn't register it. had to play those two words on my tablet. must debug my computer.

5:29 am

MollyL

You are the second person here to say that T's are not showing up in their grid. I wonder what is going on.

5:39 am

1:06 pm

TheSquid

hey all

1:34 pm

TheSquid

can I get a clue for the x?

1:35 pm

GMO

Ok, so as I lurk here it occurs to me that I don't kow what NBT and NBS means...anyone?...please?

1:35 pm

TheSquid

no blank tiles

1:35 pm

TheSquid

and ummmmm no blank stats maybe?

1:40 pm

MollyL

It means that you have one word from all the Tile Stats and one word from all the Word Stats. No zeroes showing. I have no idea why it became some sort of landmark here.

1:40 pm

TheSquid

humans just like reaching landmarks. It's almost like a halfway point (so to speak) between beginning and finishing? That's what I think anyway

1:40 pm

GMO

Ahhhh...ok that makes sense now.Tks Molly and Squid

1:43 pm

TheSquid

:D

1:43 pm

TheSquid

(also seriously does anyone have a clue for the x

1:44 pm

GMO

Like Xe--, warrior princess with a different end vowel plus a consonant.

1:46 pm

TheSquid

OH wow
ok
thank you

1:48 pm

GMO

:)

1:56 pm

TheSquid

could I get a clue for that lower left E? I think someone said it was an er6?

2:06 pm

Soodle

Er6/30.... Poetic word for 'before' and present tense....

2:07 pm

Soodle

Or ... The last three letters of the word to describe white cold stuff falling from the sky ;-)

2:09 pm

TheSquid

ahh thank you!

2:09 pm

TheSquid

that's
a weird word

2:09 pm

TheSquid

(also nbt yay)

2:09 pm

Soodle

Not the best cluer, happy you got it :-)

2:10 pm

TheSquid

no it was really helpful actually!

2:12 pm

Soodle

Further clues available on request....

2:13 pm

TheSquid

AWESOME do you have the ro7?

2:14 pm

Soodle

I do.... Let me try to clue it....

2:14 pm

TheSquid

yessss you're the best

2:14 pm

TheSquid

even if it's not a good clue it will probably still help me because the longer words are always tough for me. Babble really makes it clear how wrong I am about my "big vocabulary"

2:15 pm

Soodle

Ro 7/36.... First three letters follow from the preceding ones, cons, & French for 'water'. *** de Cologne...

2:16 pm

Soodle

Give your monkeys a workout, Squid, You'll get there!

2:18 pm

TheSquid

I'm like pretty sure I'm super close I'm like right there I can taste iiiiiit :')

2:19 pm

TheSquid

my monkeys are not the most talented writers

2:19 pm

TheSquid

they're giving me stephanie meyer not shakespear

2:19 pm

TheSquid

e

2:21 pm

Soodle

You have the first two letters& the final three letters, you are missing 2. Think abbreviation for the University of Liverpool.... (Short of drawing a picture I can't be more specific!!!!).

2:22 pm

TheSquid

THERE WE ARE I swear I typed that in

2:22 pm

TheSquid

like I SWEAR clearly I am wrong but

2:24 pm

Soodle

Lol, Squid, happens me all the time.

2:24 pm

TheSquid

in my defense I am like hour 3 into a migraine and roughly 6.5 hours from the end of my day

2:25 pm

Soodle

I'm not too proud to admit that I consult Morewords in times like this!

2:25 pm

NatashaW

I always think I've typed the super-obvious ones... like po4,5... but then at the end I realize I, um, didn't...

2:25 pm

TheSquid

I'm always like "no that's cheating" so instead I force you guys to do my cheating for me

2:25 pm

TheSquid

also Natasha I ALWAYS miss the obvious ones

2:26 pm

TheSquid

and the unobvious ones

2:26 pm

TheSquid

mostly I'm just really bad at this game ;)

2:26 pm

NatashaW

it's not cheating to beg for clues. It's socializing :-)

2:26 pm

NatashaW

I didn't know about morewords... looks useful! Thx

2:26 pm

TheSquid

yes exactly thank you for enabling me

2:26 pm

Soodle

And that, folks, is the joy of Babble!

2:32 pm

TheSquid

4:31 pm

kittychan

My wordfinder list says that there is a word with a consonant at the end of the ring over the angel's head but babble won't take it. That's the last word I have to find but there doesn't appear to be any other option to finish. Does anyone else have it?

4:33 pm

kittychan

Wasn't reading carefully - it looks like that's the same word hoyamd just monkeyed - could you clue it?

4:34 pm

NatashaW

it's quite weird that this board has xe5 but not ha5, which as far as I know is in almost every home... in your handy fire extinguisher...

6:22 pm

HarryHood

xe5 is an element. ha5 is a class of compound, and it's really just a shortcut to say a variety of more specific halogen containing compounds

6:22 pm

HarryHood

that said, I'm still searching for the first column e.

6:30 pm

it is a 6 letter word meaning before this time
