i guess i need to explore those links more at the bottom of the page. if i could drag myself away from the puzzle
12:47 am

zo plus 2 vowels, next Z, add a consonant at the end
2:24 am
mattygroves

Merci, Cat!
2:24 am
Cat9x

sorry meant the next Z is the same as zo4/9, but with a consonant added to make it zo5/20 :)
2:24 am

2:26 am
mattygroves

Gratzie, Efcaristo (ok, my spelling is poor, but you get the drift..) :D
2:26 am
Cat9x

Maddie, they are both related to the di8/50, different end spellings is all
2:27 am
mattygroves

Oh, I have the de8/50, not the DI.
2:28 am
Maddie26

i dont get it cat!
2:28 am
Cat9x

di8/50 relates to, hmmm, how about Montezumas revenge? :)
2:28 am
Cat9x

2:28 am
mattygroves

Crikey - I can NEVER spell that word - lessie how I do...
2:28 am

2:29 am
Maddie26

yes cat.
2:30 am
mattygroves

OK, I've got the eight, and one of the nines (but thankfully, not the word LITERALLY - my bowels are fine) - just looking for the other?
2:30 am
Cat9x

then add a consonant at the end to give you di9/66
2:30 am
mattygroves

Are there two di 9s then?
2:30 am
Cat9x

both nines are related to the di8/50 Matty
2:31 am
mattygroves

Okey dokey, I've got one of them, looking for the other.
2:31 am
Cat9x

the one without the ending consonant is the 2nd one, ends with all vowels
2:31 am
Cat9x

a wierd combo of vowels :)
2:32 am
mattygroves

Got em both - thanks cat (for the words, not the condition)!
2:32 am
Cat9x

lol, you're welcome :)
2:33 am
Maddie26

i havent got the 2nd 9-letter?
2:33 am
mattygroves

Try Google - google the eight, and look for an alternate spelling.
2:34 am
Cat9x

ok Maddie, take the di8/50 and remove the ea at the end, then add 4th vowel, then2nd vowel, first vowel, you will have di9/66
2:34 am
JMann

Maddie, try taking the DI 8/50, and adding another vowel between the last two vowels of DI 8/50. The last three letters are a weird combo of vowels, if all else fails, just keep typing
2:35 am
Cat9x

now, off to find more words :)
2:36 am

2:42 am
mattygroves

I'm missing one eight - I have the runs (not literally) and the ghastly train accident...
2:43 am
JMann

its another spelling for the DI 9/66, but with a weird three vowel ending combo
2:43 am
Cat9x

also a re8/50, what they do to "fat" they re6/21 it, then add on to make it re8/50
2:43 am
JMann

Cat9x

another name for a geek is a ne4/5. When you don't tell the truth, people call you a li4/4. Something that is unusual or hard to finds is ra4/5. When you apply for a job, it is because you want them to hi4/5 you.
3:37 am
Haz1558

How many words do you have JGalloway? I always recommend finding four letter words first.

Jemma & JG, you need to look a bit harder on the grid before asking for clues, and you need to be specific about the clues you want... please.
3:39 am
Jemma444

Ok, sorry
3:40 am
Haz1558

Gas, coal and petrol are forms of fu4/8, fishermen hope to have a good ha4/6 of fish, and if you have an accident your car may have a de4/4 in it. Those are the free ones I'm giving. You need to do some hunting for yourselves.

Hi Maddie
3:57 am
Cat9x

question Haz, how it is you know what to look for, like when you said you are looking for a word having to do with payment for a house. Is there a page that clues me like that?
3:57 am
Preethi

Hey PM
3:57 am
Maddie26

hi preethi
3:58 am
mrpresident

yeah, it is the chat box!
3:58 am
Haz1558

No, Cat - I was giving a general clue for an re word that has to do with payment for a house. I should have indicated it with re4/4 - sorry for any confusion caused.
3:59 am
Cat9x

ohhh LOL mrp :) I thought maybe one of the sites below clued the grid words that way, sorry :)
3:59 am
Cat9x

no problem Haz :)
3:59 am
Preethi

Hello mepresident
3:59 am
Preethi

mrpresident. Sorry for the typo
3:59 am
mrpresident

cat, you could email the powers and ask them if that is possible?? user demand tends to be a good reason to try.
3:59 am
mrpresident

Hi Preethi!
4:00 am
CJ25

prethei there are a few Re6/21's which RE8?
4:00 am
Haz1558

There is an interesting ca4/6 - rhymes with the fisherman's ha4/6. Irish legend has it that if you are born within one of these, then you are destined to have good luck.
4:01 am
Maddie26

does anyone have any clues for the ha7/36?
4:01 am
Preethi

this is the re 6/21 which means to give
4:02 am
Preethi

or to present
4:02 am
Haz1558

ha7/36 is someone who runs a company to take things to places
4:03 am
Haz1558

It is formed off the ha4/6.
4:03 am
Haz1558

Thanks Preethi - I have it now.
4:03 am
Preethi

:) yw
4:04 am
Maddie26

i dont get it haz!!
4:04 am
Preethi

some other clue for ha 7 Haz. I dont ahve the ha 4
4:05 am
Haz1558

Okay - ha4/6 is what fishermen hope for - or another word for 'to pull'. The past tense is ha6/27 and ha7/36 is the one who does the pulling
4:06 am
CJ25

what witches brew in s that in there?
4:06 am
Preethi

Thanks Haz
4:06 am
Preethi

Got it
4:07 am
Haz1558

No - but use the start of that word for the ca4/6 I was talking about earlier.
4:07 am
JMann

actually, Haz, the past tense is HA 6/27, the person doing it is HA 6/24, and a company doing it would be HA 7/36. There is one missing in there, but it's all so close
4:09 am
Preethi

Dint get the Ha 7. Got the other two
4:11 am
Haz1558

Then put another vowel into your ha6 to get the 7 Preethi.
4:11 am
JMann

okay, start with HA 4/6 - a fisherman's HA** (or their take). Then, the next 3 build off of that word.
4:12 am
mrpresident

Oh truly, h's are evil!
4:13 am
mrpresident

The the c's ! they are self explanatory!
4:13 am
JMann

the next word is the past tense of HA 4/6. the one after that is what you would call someone who actually did HA 4/6. The final word again builds on HA 4/6, but adds one more vowel before the final two letters the word before it
4:14 am
Haz1558

I've found a de8/50 - what happened when the train went off the tracks.
4:14 am

PM26

4:18 am
Maddie26

do you have the O words PM
4:18 am
Haz1558

The bottom two o words are oh4/6 - make this into a past tense word. oh4/5 - almost an American state but ending in a different vowel.
4:18 am
Cat9x

ac6/24, a plus vowel plus a hawaiian ***.
4:18 am
Haz1558

The top o words - the one I have is on7/28 - meaning more cross or cantankerous.

He's done something with his columns - if you enlarge the window then drag it smaller you can see how the checkbox column moves and the others stay put. Should be easy to fix as soon as he knows about it

There's something a little odd here. I've got 2 to get and I've got 11 of the 13 R words. This agrees with Lickerty - I've got 2 RE 6 to find, but my word stats show that I've got 2 x 6 and 1 x 9 to get. Plus, I've entered one of the DI 9 letters and it's been credited as a 10!

There are all related - one nine is a variation of the spelling of the eight, and the other is the condition relating to it.

this is like one of those children's games of telephone....I have had the tu word for a long time, but then when hetty wrote "seat", I thought it peculiar, because there is no s, and then grace or someone wrote about tu8 and that confused me too . As you can tell, I am easily confused.

Gee, Miss Hetty, I have just AHED and **** at your clue!

Haz1558

od4/5 - a poem and a vowel, oh4/6 - past tense of the letters given, oh4/5 - differs from the American state by the last vowel, on7/28 a comparative adjective for a word meaning cantankerous.
10:27 am

Haz, you are wonderous ... and wonderful -- thanks for that cantankerous 7
10:27 am
Haz1558

You're welcome!
10:30 am
hetty

Yup, I agree Haz--tho I was looking for another"r' in the word, so I'll just alert others to its elision
10:31 am
Becca Lorum

Haz - you're a star - just got all the o's. Thanks
10:32 am
Haz1558

I'm glad it helped Becca.
10:32 am
Haz1558

hetty - you'll notice the verb form of elision is in the grid?
10:33 am
ch1212

Haz, do you mind my asking -- are you / were you an English instructor?
10:33 am
hetty

I* hadn't got that far, Haz. Thanks
10:34 am
Haz1558

No - I studied languages but have never taught English.
10:35 am
hetty

You have all the necessary skills to do so, Haz, plus the essential caring and sharing nature
10:35 am
ch1212

Ah, you studied languages. That explains it! My beloved is the same way -- he is fluent in 4 languages and reads/writes in several others. You speak like he does at times when he defines words.
10:35 am
Merk

I'm stuck on two ha words. One is ha4/6 first or second in Lickety's list. The other is the first ha6/24 on Lickety's.

10:37 am
Becca Lorum

Merk - thinking of moving house?
10:37 am
Haz1558

ch1212 - it becomes second nature to define words in a particular way, in the same way as my husband talks in medical terms. A nosebleed is never a nosebleed, it's an episode of epistaxis!
10:37 am
ch1212

I do, Miss Hetty, I do. He was a marvelous guide when we toured Italy last year, and could speak with everyone we met -- Italian, Spanish, German and of course English speakers.

Is that for the ha6/24?

10:39 am
Haz1558

Merk - ha4/6 is another word for 'to pull'. ha6/27 is the past tense, ha6/6/24 is the person doing the pulling and ha7/36 is the company prepared to move your goods around.
10:39 am

10:41 am
72 Temple Owl

merk: think of what you sprinkle on icy sidewalks and driveways...
10:41 am
Haz1558

The earlier one is ha plus what you put on top of a jar plus a vowel.
10:42 am
Merk

Thanks, Haz. You always come through. Now I am missing either the first or second ha4/6. I have the one that ends in a past tense ending. It's the other one.
10:43 am
Haz1558

The first ha4/6 is the scottish version of had, and the second one is the low fence that sounds like a laugh.
10:44 am
abe79

that is a low fence? wow, i never knew that. thanks haz
10:44 am
Merk

It must be the fence one I am missing, but I don't know the word for a low fence. I got the sound of a laugh, but do I end in a vowel?
10:45 am
Haz1558

Yes, Merk - it's just a repeat of the first two letter.
10:45 am
Haz1558

Abe - in days of yore the aristocracy built low fences that would not spoil their view of the countryside.
10:46 am
Merk

I am so mad at myself. I have to check the grid more. I was starting with the wrong H and couldn't find the final vowel of course. Duh! So that's a low fence. Where? In England?
10:47 am
Becca Lorum

More of a hidden ditch than a fence, but yes, of course, where else but England?!
10:47 am
Haz1558

The word certainly appears in some of Jane Austen's works - I'll not be able to quote the exact reference. I doubt whether the term is used much any more.
10:47 am
abe79

i'm glad that it has an actual meaning, unlike some of these words!

10:48 am

Yup in England--where they also built follies. Now Hax I'm stuck on what you put on top of a jar. Can't build from a "c'--?
10:49 am
hetty

And Elizabeth admired the one at Darcy's estate in P & P
10:50 am
Haz1558

It's what you also can put on top of a bin. It rhymes with the dry ar4/5
10:51 am
hetty

Thanks. Of course.
10:51 am
Becca Lorum

Erda - I bet he had better views than the English aristocracy too!
10:55 am
Haz1558

And now I must take the dog for a walk - providing that I can get get her wakened from her slumbers, that is. Have a good day, everyone.
10:55 am
hetty

If he was South African he woud be a colonial. Yo know hgow this Britd took the old empire with them wherever they went. In ruralo Manitoba there's the remains of an estate where they built a ballroom and kept a troop of foxes to oblige their imported hounds

dr 5/12 besides "i DR5/12 " the fish slappingi'll get when i finally find this word"...

Yes, they do. One is an adjectival form of the 8/50, the other is the British/medical spelling with the addition of an o before the last vowels.

Hi all.

it is either before the drab one or immediately after it
1:15 pm
firefly779

TO - is the one that sounds like what a train does when it comes off the tracks?
1:15 pm
Haz1558

ca7 - take the four letter word that means opposite of warm and change the vowel. To that add a long period of time, as in the Edwardian ***
1:15 pm
Charm

TO - do you have the d + train track?
1:15 pm
Angelsong

missing one of the first two dr5's. I have the one for depressing, as in a very cloudy day.

1:20 pm
Haz1558

rumple - medical condition, along with vomiting, associated with food poisoning. The di8 is one version, the di9/66 is an adjectival form and the other di9 is the medical/British rendition with the addition of an o before the final vowels.

I just figured out a neat trick. if you use lickety's list and Firefox browser, this will work for you, and it may also work with other browsers.

the first re6/18, the third re5/12 and the second re6/21
5:23 pm
FranMag

CAT, were those the ones you needed? also means to draw as in plans
5:24 pm
FranMag

re6/18 is genuine + two vowels in reverse order
5:25 pm
periwinkle

have re6/21- does the re8 build off of that
5:25 pm
FranMag

re5/12 is color + opp of off
5:25 pm
FranMag

yes peri
5:26 pm
FranMag

second re6/21 is latin plural of the 5 before it
5:26 pm
periwinkle

can't figure out the re8 even with the clues :(
5:26 pm
periwinkle

two vowels in reverse order?
5:27 pm
CAT7519

WOOHOO!!!! FiREWORKS!!!! THANKS FRAN!!!
5:27 pm
FranMag

the re8 is the past tense of the re6 that means to draw in a realistic way
5:27 pm
FranMag

yay cat!!!!
5:27 pm
FranMag

peri, the later vowel comes first
5:29 pm
periwinkle


Fran, found the re6 but it will not accepted past tense
5:29 pm
FranMag

did you add the talking horse peri?
5:30 pm
periwinkle

I tried but it was not accepted
5:31 pm
FranMag

type slow peri, it worked for me.
5:32 pm
periwinkle

Fran, I have tried 3 times, refreshed 3 times and typed in slowly and it will still not accept the past tense of re6, RATS
5:32 pm
DawnGray

Maybe you're looking at the wrong re 6/21. It worked for me.
5:33 pm
DawnGray

Re 6/21 that becomes past tense is also something you do with an animal to get meat
5:33 pm
FranMag

make sure you're working off the right re6 peri, it's the one after the re4/5 that means to rip
5:33 pm
FranMag

but before the lease
5:34 pm
FranMag

my monkeys are stumped, anyone have a clue for the on7/28?
5:34 pm
libarebel

on7/28--more stubborn, contrary
5:35 pm
periwinkle

Uhoh, it looks like I do not have the right re6, the one I have start with a word that means genuine, is that the right one for the re8

5:35 pm
FranMag

no peri, it's towards the end of the REs
5:35 pm
periwinkle

may I have a clue for the correct re6
5:36 pm
periwinkle

so I was driving myself crazy for nothing :)
5:36 pm
FranMag

peri, it means to draw in a realiztic way, comes off the 4/5 before lease
5:36 pm
FranMag

yes peri, you were!! ;-) there were a lot of clues flying
5:37 pm
FranMag

sorry, that's realistic way

Mole Poblano is a mexican dish made with sesame, almond chocolate, several kinds of dried chiles, you make the sauce and serve it with chicken or turkey
10:12 pm
StephieC

thanks!
10:12 pm
nrkii

Mole (moh-leh), of which there are several varieties, is an Oaxacan tradition. Most moles are used as sauces poured over chicken or turkey or used to flavor foods such as tamales. The black mole is what Oaxaca is most famous for, and one of its many ingredients is chocolate. You can find black and red mole in the market. Establishments that sell fresh chocolate often grind and mix the ingredients for more and sell it as a paste. These kinds of mole keep very well.

good thing you've got that banana split to keep you company, daisy
10:57 pm
Minveryork

LeslieAnn, that is a good idea to copy and paste the list to a word document. I never thought of that. It would save time w/writing. type faster than I write.
10:57 pm
anders

stid, thanks, it's a haida piece. i have a collection of native and inuit art. love it
10:57 pm
LeslieAnn

10:58 pm

Hi Leslie - I do have that spelling, and the other - but is the 2nd 9Di another variation?

mymuseisme

I';m stuck on the re 6/18 after depended, could I get a hint plz?
11:54 pm
Cat9x

Thanks Fran :) Not really hard to find, it's just that I am particlular, so I keep looking till I find just the right one. I know the day will come when I won't be able to incorporate a cat in the theme.
