Uneaixoise

7:24 am

Uneaixoise

Nm!!

7:27 am

MollyL

Une got ce8 and found it on her own
: D

7:29 am

Uneaixoise

Indeed!!

7:44 am

mael

8:11 am

hurshy

phantom: kernel

8:12 am

mael

oh nan, I just saw. I am so sorry.

8:24 am

hurshy

this is a nice grid, except for the K

8:25 am

hurshy

ooh just found 2 more k

8:49 am

ChampFit

Agree! Still have 5 left there.

9:04 am

rururocks

someone called a ke 7 but i cannot find it

9:06 am

rururocks

that's because it was really an 8

9:07 am

ChampFit

Just found the 8, but don't have that 7 yet.

9:07 am

rururocks

there is no 7 just the 8

9:08 am

ChampFit

Thx!

9:16 am

Uneaixoise

Clue for ke8 please?

9:16 am

rururocks

misspelling of the lamp oil

9:17 am

Uneaixoise

Tx!!

9:18 am

hurshy

um, that's how i've always seen it spelled

9:19 am

Uneaixoise

Me too :-)

9:22 am

rururocks

that's the heathen way to spell it :D

9:28 am

MollyL

The I (eye) spelling of the ke8 is the alternate. The E spelling is the most common.

9:29 am

MollyL

Ru probably buys propine gas for his grill.
: D

9:31 am

rururocks

it is spelled kerosine

9:32 am

ChampFit

I've never seen it spelled that way, but it's not a word I see often.

9:32 am

MollyL

All the spellings Google turns up are with an E. All the store spellings of the lamps are with an E.

9:33 am

rururocks

at least in school it was

9:33 am

mkg

I have seen the Ke word spelled this way and the other way. Both are acceptable.

9:34 am

MollyL

There was no question of acceptable. Just most common.

9:35 am

rururocks

people with a scientific background spell it with an i

9:35 am

rururocks

where's sciencegeek when you need her? :D

9:36 am

origami

I have a science background and spell it with an e. Good morning.

9:37 am

parisla

I do too. Unless it's to be used on a violin :-)

9:39 am

rururocks

neither spelling is in morewords though

9:43 am

rururocks

good morning sniffles

9:44 am

saanichcat

re the lamp oil: both are correct spellings, but the 'e' version is more widely accepted and used.

9:44 am

periwinkle

both spellings are in morewords, I just checked and btw I have always spelled it with an E

9:45 am

periwinkle

9:50 am

MollyL

Who knew you used ke8 on a violin?

9:51 am

parisla

It was a pun...

10:06 am

rururocks

ori is allergized right now molly

10:07 am

origami

Really sniffly

10:09 am

rururocks

that pun makes me nero-tic

10:19 am

MollyL

No, people actually use ke8 to clean violin strings

10:32 am

rururocks

11:52 am

MollyL

Zooz hasn't been around for a while. I'm hoping he is deeply immersed in some good mental health assistance.

11:54 am

MollyL

I agree Ru. I hope Nan gets a chance to see all the good thoughts and prayers that are headed her way. That is a comfort when there is a loss.
