That te7 is tricky - I almost couldn't believe it was actually there
12:38 am
justafreep
Yeah. I hear you can just type things to prove if something is actually there or not. NOT THAT I'D EVER DO THAT!
12:39 am
Gillie
Well, I entered it, then spent some time staring at it trying to figure out where it was
12:40 am
justafreep
I hear that
12:40 am
cybernan
not seeing eitherof those last two -- time for bed. Good night everyone :)
12:40 am
justafreep
I am unhappy with the J. I am going to pretend it's not really in this grid.
12:43 am
Gillie
I've got 5 J's, included at least one that I'm not sure I've ever seen before. For me, that's not too bad (before listing).
12:43 am
justafreep
I'm at 5 now, too, but I feel it is taking a disproportionate amount of time. Boo. Fie on the J
12:44 am
dizgrannie
the last J is 'very happy'
12:45 am
Gillie
Darn it - I hadn't seen that one
12:45 am
justafreep
6 Js, as I was saying....
12:46 am
Gillie
And now I've managed to get all of them. Time to go, I think.
12:46 am
dizgrannie
how about 5/30
12:46 am
Gillie
That's the one I really don't remember seeing before
12:46 am

it's great to have all the Js. I'm glad it's in this grid!

Oh no! Yo 5/16 - one of my pet hated words! Too many years as a chalkie, I guess.
3:44 am

It's up there with "could of", 'would of" etc., and instead of "I thought..." or "I said...", it's "I'm like...".

5:55 am

5:55 am
MollyL
And the sw is much easier than the he
5:55 am
mattygroves
Yep, so it is (to both comments). The SW has been found
5:56 am

The H has now also been found. Thanks all!

yeah, I do rem. carnac but couldn't rem. his name until you said that. wasn't sure if bea was helping me or just reminiscing.
9:46 am
BzznBea
Yes, Carnac. His answers were sealed ****etically
9:47 am
MollyL
Was the airtight comment about that word?
9:47 am
hokie carla
yes, I know that's not a word
9:48 am
welki
<-- went to suny binghamton for a while

was trying to hit delete and hit return instead 🤣

are there 2 weird j's?

there's a jo 6/42 I don't have yet

jo6 is happiness

I have that 5. will look for that 6.
9:52 am

thanks Bea
9:52 am
hokie carla
wow, I thought that was just a phantom
9:52 am
MLFAN17
ty for the jo6
9:52 am
BzznBea
Carla, there is a plural of the jo5 that makes a 4
9:53 am
hokie carla
yeah, have that too
9:53 am
MollyL
A plural of a 5 makes a 4?
9:54 am
MLFAN17
mark can you reclue the et7 pls?
9:54 am
marksdolly
starts with a Greek letter and ends with the ending of "one who does"
9:56 am
MollyL
I need to back away from this chat. It's like a bad acid trip.
9:56 am
hokie carla
omg, it's the baby roo
9:56 am
BzznBea
Told you...
9:57 am
hokie carla
I think technically the 5 is a past tense and the 4 is a present tense if that makes it less confusing, molly. I knew what bea meant.
9:59 am
MollyL
If you are talking about 5/30 and 4/13 they are past and plural
10:00 am
MLFAN17
completely lost on that one
10:00 am
BzznBea
I'm sure.
10:01 am
MollyL
The chat makes it sound like you two are talking about the baby roo with the plural of a 5 making a 4 thing though
10:01 am
LuvWordGames
sa 7/36 please?
10:01 am
HarryHood
I don't think the 4/13 is plural, I think it's the verb form
10:01 am
MollyL
Who's on first
10:02 am
HarryHood
I'm no grammar king, but that there aint no plural nowhow.
10:02 am
BzznBea
sa7 is a state of being full or complete
10:02 am
HarryHood
nohow.
10:02 am
HarryHood
ty for sa7.
10:03 am
hokie carla
according to the def. it can be a verb or noun, so plural and present
10:03 am
MollyL
Oh for the love of Pete, the dictionary says "plural form of jo3 for the jo4"
10:04 am
HarryHood
I guess if you're using the 3 ltr as a noun, it could be a plural.
10:04 am
HarryHood
*moping*
10:04 am
LuvWordGames
ty Bea
10:04 am
MollyL
Okay, everyone get out your dictionary and look up pedantic now.
10:06 am
MollyL
I'm guessing that the same word starting with c and meaning bovine now is subject to the same. "Well, it depends on whether you are using it as a noun or a verb"
10:06 am
BzznBea
Most certainly...
10:06 am
HarryHood
yes - absolutely
10:07 am

10:08 am
HarryHood
go ask alice, molly.
10:09 am
hokie carla
I'm just saying if there's a past tense there's a good chance it's a verb and the 4 that looks like a pl would be a present tense. but english is weird and I'm kinda nerdy.
10:09 am
MollyL
Ahahahaha, it is a plural verb....ahahaha
10:09 am
HarryHood
ooh found my 4th 8!

good morning everyone - saw the clue for the sa 7 in all the chat about the yo4, but am no wiser. The only word I can think of that answers that def, requires 2 a's
10:30 am
BzznBea
It ends with the sometime vowel, if that helps any.
10:31 am
BzznBea
That is the sa7. yo4 has nothing to do with it.
10:33 am
MollyL
State of fullness Nan
10:34 am
cybernan
yes I know molly -- the only word I can think of for that is satiated
10:34 am
MollyL
Well that doesn't end in a sometimes vowel now does it?
: D
10:35 am
cybernan
oh - found it -- new word for me -- unnecessary too :)
10:37 am
MollyL
Really? I don't consider myself as having the world's best vocabulary, but I know that one. And it has plenty of uses.
10:37 am
hokie carla
ah, thanks, bea. couldn't get past satiated either

fritz would be stout if he had his way when it comes to food, but, i do not allow that
2:49 pm

Miep is getting older. I think it's part of why she vomits if her tummy is too empty. she's not wildly overweight, so we just go with it.
2:49 pm

aw, poor baby

There is no he8?
