Well, that di7 has me baffled
12:39 am
gremlinn
sh7, st7, and anyone have a third s7?
12:40 am
justafreep
not yet, no
12:40 am
gremlinn
only one left for me
12:41 am
gremlinn
ah, another st7, fw
12:42 am
justafreep
nicely done
12:42 am
gremlinn
Gillie: di- is the "two" prefix
12:43 am
Gillie
ty - I'll look
12:43 am
justafreep
it's similar to one from just the other day
12:43 am
gremlinn
yeah, these two di7s are both formed by adding a letter into a common di6
12:43 am
gremlinn
that's how I usually try to remember them
12:44 am
Gillie
ty - got it
12:44 am
gremlinn
st7, only one vowel
12:46 am
Gillie
Well, it's not sthrunt
12:46 am
justafreep
are you sure?
12:46 am
justafreep
try it again. Maybe you mistyped it.

9:01 am
hokie carla
yes, I posted that too but my stupid connection keeps cutting out. have 6 red boxes on my screen right now.
9:01 am
hokie carla
and just found re8, which is what the GPS did when you didn't go the way they wanted
9:01 am
mael
st8, loud and screechy
9:03 am
hokie carla
well, I just found st8 but did not think that's what that meant
9:04 am
mael
I guess loud and grating is more apt?
9:05 am
hokie carla
gotta type etui just in case. alas, not there.
9:05 am
hokie carla
I'm not sure what I thought it meant. imagine my surprise when I clicked the dictionary link.

9:14 am
rururocks
hi welks
9:14 am
MollyL
I didn't think that is what st8 meant either
9:15 am
rururocks
st8 means brassy
9:15 am
MollyL
I think of it more as urgent
9:16 am
rururocks
are there two st8s?
9:17 am
MollyL
No, but one definition of the st8 is insistent.
9:20 am
mael
I've always seen it in relation to sound
9:20 am
origami
Good morning
9:20 am
mael
or rather, even when it meant insistent and annoying it was because it was being compared to a loud and grating sound :)
9:24 am
mael
my cat is in fact being st8 right now
9:26 am

ah found my last 8
