Periwinkle (@ 6:33), think eels or snakes...

8:11 am

EvaNadine

the snake clue was a great one...stumbling a bit on the pig one...heh

8:21 am

Treble99

I think the pig clue is the way they eat

8:23 am

EvaNadine

thanks treble and wilson -- i had the 2 words leading up to it, but i just wasnt seeing the 8-letter one. got it now!
:)

8:24 am

EvaNadine

heh...helped me find the rest of my 7s too.
;)

9:05 am

EvaNadine

hrm. i have one of the Y6'es but the second one is alluding me...

9:10 am

baggo

do you have the one that you say when you finally find words in the puzzle (y6/39)?????

9:11 am

Gail

One of the y6 is somebody who never stops talking, the other is something you say when you are happy or excited.

9:11 am

baggo

or do you have the other that you do like a dog, when words elude you??? (y6/39)

9:11 am

dicktrickle

well, if you get the other y6, either you're gonna scream out in excitement, or you're gonna talk like a chihuahua

9:12 am

EvaNadine

thanks to all three of you!
i dont think i ever tried it because i never thought it was a real word...haha
but *thatword* indeed!

9:13 am

baggo

9:44 am

dicktrickle

9:45 am

EvaNadine

dicktrickle

9:56 am

Gail

p5/34 Any of various North American plants ... having opposite leaves and flowers with a variously colored salverform corolla.

9:59 am

EvaNadine

thanks gail -- i dont think i EVER would have gotten that!

10:01 am

Gail

You're welcome. Funny thing is, that's the first word I found when I started this morning.

10:24 am

carolecs

Thanks, my dictionary didn't have that in it, neither did a2z wordfinder, obviously an obscure word that one as it cant even give itself a definition in the game.

10:26 am

EvaNadine

ive got 4 of the 4 A words, but neither I word, only 2 of the E words and only one ) word. vowel-words are always hard for me!

10:26 am

EvaNadine

3 of the 4 A words, i meant.

10:39 am

Gail

o6/27 A small round calcareous grain found, for example, in limestones

I only have 3 a words and 2 o words.

EvaNadine

e4/11, e5/28

10:52 am

boatierra

I keep entering the S pig word and the Y excitement word, but Babble won't accept them. The P is not right next to either Y, so I am wondering if I just have to keep entering them, over and over.

10:53 am

EvaNadine

mulhermujer -- P doesnt have to be next to Y for either word...so you might not be entering the right words...

11:08 am

Gail

For e's I have:e4/7, e6/27, e4/6, e4/11, e5/28, e4/13 which extends to e5/28

11:25 am

EvaNadine

got the last O -- O4/7

11:31 am

EvaNadine

11:42 am

COMFERT

11:44 am

Gail

e6 - a crude stone artifact

11:45 am

EvaNadine

thanks gail!

11:50 am

Bash

for the s word, think "like a pig, but even more so"...

11:54 am

Krys10

Or think about a two year old with chocolate cake

11:57 am

baggo
