Lizlin

Just noticed - no Lickety. Checked - his list has an extra word. I've emailed him to let him know. If you work out what it is, please let me know and I'll email him, so he can correct it.

Q

lizlin - looks like lickety has 10 f's, to babble's 9.

12:34 am

Lizlin

Thanks Q - I'll let him know

12:35 am

Q

it's the 8 letter one (lickety has nine 8 letter words, to babble's eight)

12:35 am

Lizlin

Thanks :)

12:36 am

justafreep

I haven't looked, but there SHOULD be an f8. I mean, it's a word....

12:37 am

Lizlin

I tried that and just accepted that babble didn't like it.

12:37 am

Lizlin

Enable is such a weird word list anyway!

12:38 am

justafreep

That's what I told my kids when they were babies, too. "Sorry. Can't give you one of those. It's not a real thing." Went well!

12:39 am

Lizlin

It's only 3.38 pm here, so Lickety probably won't get to the list until after he gets home from work.

12:39 am

cybernan

Lizlin

I've let Lickety know

12:41 am

justafreep

I am in the grid as well. Also extra.

12:43 am

Lizlin

You get the crown ;)

12:49 am

I will be a benevolent crown-wearer. I will decree F8 a word! And everyone gets a pony

Hi IG

I need to warm up

7:16 am

ItalianGreyhound

just noticed the Gerund- fun grid!

7:16 am

bichon

It's been cold, rainy and windy since Saturday

7:17 am

Scrabbler

We had that on Friday and have warmed up since then.

7:18 am

bichon

Brought back the fleece top and sweatpants

7:18 am

Scrabbler

Yes. We were in the low 40s on Friday. It was miserable.

7:22 am

bichon

Of course we didn't turn on the heat

7:22 am

Scrabbler

I increased the temp from 65 to 67.

7:23 am

bichon

And, we had taken off the flannel sheets

7:23 am

bichon

But, we have the dog to keep us warm

7:23 am

Scrabbler

I still have mine on the bed, haha.

7:27 am

MollyL

I love the 40's. It's cool and the air is fresh. I'll take that over humidity any day.

7:29 am

Scrabbler

The sun is what makes a day for me.

7:32 am

Scrabbler

I passed halfway so I am done. Enjoy the day.

7:36 am

hokie carla

I could see that argument for 50s but 40s is way too cold

7:43 am

BzznBea

Carla, have you had your grad party?

7:43 am

hokie carla

8:01 am

MollyL

That's interesting. I don't consider 40's "cold"

8:01 am

mkg

Any clues for the o word 4th column?

10:50 am

joym999

I seem to have woken up this morning to a bunch of boobs. I might have to go back to bed.

10:50 am

10:51 am

dan2bit

10:51 am

dan2bit

thanks for the mammaries

10:52 am

joym999

Leave me alone, I'm nursing a grudge.

10:53 am

joym999

Although I have to admit this conversation is titillating.

10:53 am

rururocks

I wish there was some kind of a formula for better puns

10:54 am

MollyL

It never fails. There are always repeats. Or in this case, reteats.

10:55 am

MollyL

Well, as long as you don't bottle things up, things keep flowing.

10:56 am

ItalianGreyhound

these puns are suckling

10:58 am

rururocks

that depends on how you latch on IG

10:59 am

ItalianGreyhound

we are really milking this topic

10:59 am

joym999

We are certainly milking this subject for all it's worth.

10:59 am

joym999

IG and I are drinking from the same cup, or maybe bottle.

11:34 am

Vioxx

ha 7 add a gerund ending to the ha4,6

11:34 am

joym999

the HA 6 is weird

11:34 am

hokie carla

I mean I was wondering if my other missing one was a related 6

11:34 am

MLFAN17

11:35 am

joym999

11:35 am

joym999

The HA6 has a lot of vowels

11:36 am

hokie carla

if you own something you ha** it, mlfan. I think the ha6 is scottish without the consonant.

11:36 am

cybernan

ha 5 - dif. conjugation of one of your 4's

11:36 am

hokie carla

I am ha* lunch, but leave out the consonant

11:36 am

joym999

ty nan

11:36 am

MLFAN17

is it ha and then a cons then the vowels?

11:37 am

hokie carla

no

11:38 am

hokie carla

leave out the cons in the middle of the ha4 word - I ha** something (not in grid) but leave the other 3 letters and add the gerund

11:39 am

joym999

It's really a pity ionize isn't in the grid.

11:42 am

ItalianGreyhound

12:33 pm

joym999

12:34 pm

ItalianGreyhound

mis-spelled sea shack (or song)

12:34 pm

ItalianGreyhound

sorry - you didn't ask for that clue

12:35 pm

joym999

ty IG.

12:39 pm

joym999

I didn't ask...but you knew that I needed it!

12:39 pm

joym999

I've got 50 words left and I'm going nowhere. Time to list.

12:41 pm

hokie carla

made it to 31 with some help from the chatterbox

12:43 pm

hokie carla

well 29, didn't see the latest clues

12:45 pm

hokie carla

hmm, I guess my missing F is that fe6. not sure i know another word that means feral but I guess I'll try some things.

12:46 pm

hokie carla

aha. thx

12:47 pm

joym999

Just starting listing. Why or why don't I remember to add plurals?

12:47 pm

hokie carla

yes

12:49 pm

hokie carla

any guesses on my missing z? not the 7

12:49 pm

joym999

Anyone know the meaning of that DE4,8? I've seen it before but it's not in the dictionary and google thinks it's an anagram.

12:50 pm

joym999

The other 4 Zs are 4/5 pairs

12:50 pm

hokie carla

don't have, so I couldn't guess!

12:51 pm

ItalianGreyhound

the De is an abbr. thought not allowed?

12:51 pm

hokie carla

so, I guess what you were saying about making things plural applies to me too :D

12:51 pm

joym999

lol

12:51 pm

Gillie

Merriam-Webster defines it as "challenge/de------" (from the French, I guess)

12:51 pm

hokie carla

oh, we get that de4 a bit. not sure if I ever knew

12:52 pm

joym999

ty gillie

12:52 pm

ItalianGreyhound

google says decentralized finance

12:52 pm

hokie carla

so it's the noun version of the verb that ends in y per m/w

12:53 pm

hokie carla

pretty sure I've never seen or heard it used as a noun

12:55 pm

joym999

yes, but it's not the first time you've seen a word in the grid that no one in real life ever uses.

12:55 pm

hokie carla

truth

12:55 pm

ItalianGreyhound

amen to that

12:56 pm

joym999

any clues for the EN7/8?

12:56 pm

ItalianGreyhound

several in this grid

12:56 pm

hokie carla

didn't have the 8, thanks

12:56 pm

ItalianGreyhound

e + country

12:56 pm

hokie carla

12:57 pm

ItalianGreyhound

call it a tie

12:57 pm

joym999

ty both

12:57 pm

hokie carla

I was too busy talking about how I missed another plural

12:58 pm

phaeton

zo7?

12:58 pm

hokie carla

more so than zo4, which isn't allowed (think suit)

12:59 pm

ItalianGreyhound

try working that word into conversation and watch the faces

12:59 pm

joym999

zo4 suit is a always capitalized I think

1:00 pm

hokie carla

agree, but why isn't the adj?

1:00 pm

Gillie

It probably isn't accepted because it's only used as part of the phrase "zo-- suit"

1:00 pm

joym999

makes no sense, you're right

1:00 pm

ItalianGreyhound

or proper name ?

1:00 pm

phaeton

ty

1:01 pm

hokie carla

what is the other i on the bottom?

1:02 pm

ItalianGreyhound

clumsy ?

1:02 pm

ItalianGreyhound

or angry

1:03 pm

hokie carla

ugh

1:03 pm

hokie carla

thx

1:03 pm

hokie carla

it was the 5

1:03 pm

hokie carla

can't go backward

1:05 pm

hokie carla

is it safe to assume all the bottom R's are Ri?

1:06 pm

hokie carla

can't find one

1:06 pm

joym999

Yes. There are 9 RIs.

1:07 pm

joym999

they are all normal words except for one

1:07 pm

hokie carla

stats please?

1:08 pm

ItalianGreyhound

which RI is abnormal?

1:08 pm

joym999

one of the RI4s is weird but it's easy to monkey

1:08 pm

joym999

one RI6, the rest 4s and 5s. You can find them.

1:09 pm

joym999

I have faith in you.

1:09 pm

hokie carla

LOL, big mistake!

1:09 pm

ItalianGreyhound

It is Carla, Joy. : )

1:10 pm

hokie carla

it's not ript, even though I've tried that roughly 26 times

1:10 pm

ItalianGreyhound

shampoo and ri

1:10 pm

hokie carla

lol, it was a very similar 4 that I had the 5 and 6 to

1:12 pm

hokie carla

so moral to the story, not only check your plurals but check your root words as well

1:13 pm

hokie carla

23 left, mostly big words. does not bode well.

1:13 pm

ItalianGreyhound

make sure you plural that gerund

1:14 pm

hokie carla

well not all of them

1:14 pm

ItalianGreyhound

just one

1:16 pm

hokie carla

ha, found the last 2 T's. compound that always gets me.

1:16 pm

hokie carla

finally, a col/row grayed! (middle col)

1:16 pm

hokie carla

oh, also top row gray

1:17 pm

hokie carla

last 2 A's were missed plurals. starting to look up here. but still 4 7 and 3 8 left.

1:19 pm

hokie carla

ooh, there's an 8

1:19 pm

joym999

I've got the SP7,8 combo, the Scottish one, but I can't find the other SP7s. Any clues?

1:20 pm

hokie carla

ooh, there's another 8, 1 left

1:20 pm

hokie carla

I don't seem to have the one you have. or any sp7. will look. still need 7 S's from that tile, yikes.

1:21 pm

phaeton

1:28 pm

penquis

1:28 pm

hokie carla

joy mentioned sp7's so that's what I was looking for

1:28 pm

joym999

I'm looking for an SP7 (not an 8), the one right before the creepy crawly

1:28 pm

penquis

sorry....it's the third one, LOL>..

1:29 pm

hokie carla

ah, there's a PT of a 5 I didn't have

1:30 pm

hokie carla

it's before the 8 legged creature but I don't know if it's right before.

1:30 pm

penquis

it's a gerund....

1:30 pm

hokie carla

1:31 pm

joym999

1:31 pm

hokie carla

Moving day, due to living so close to a seniors home, I am on the public wifi, it is weak and spotty but I'll take it until I hook up my network tomorrow.

1:37 pm

hokie carla

1:37 pm

sukee

The move went smoothly, 2 hours from start to finish.

1:37 pm

sukee

1:38 pm

hokie carla

1:39 pm

hokie carla

I dread when we eventually move. have been in the house too long.

1:39 pm

sukee

Having a patio helped, they brought everything in that way

1:39 pm

hokie carla

ooh, found my last 4

1:39 pm

sukee

I threw out so much stuff before I moved, it is crazy.

1:39 pm

sukee

Now I have a huge storage closet, which could be dangerous :)

1:39 pm

hokie carla

have been decluttering since Jan 2020 but still have too much stuff.

1:43 pm

hokie carla

rest of my words now are 1x5, 4x6, 1x7, and 1x8, so I think i'll have to list.

1:45 pm

sukee

Have to run, need a nap :)

1:46 pm

hokie carla

have a good one

1:46 pm

hokie carla

hmm, last 2 R's were plurals. I still didn't learn joy's lesson.

1:50 pm

hokie carla

and last 2 s's were a plural and a PT

1:51 pm

hokie carla

now I am moving on. finished with heavy help from chat and 6 on the list.

2:08 pm

penquis

it's interesting that, according to Enable, you can be more zo 4 but zo 4 is not accepted....neither is capitalized in the dictionary....

2:18 pm

Pinikula

any hints for the 8s, plz?

2:26 pm

penquis

two sn 8 words are comparatives (more of the word)....

2:27 pm

penquis

one sp 8 is also a comparative.....another two sp 8s ending with gerunds.....

2:27 pm

penquis

gotta go....hope that helps....
