The best advice I can give is to look for four letter words that you know. The idea of the game is to find words - you're defeating the purpose if you try to rely too much on clues.

vi - just remember, if you are good at bluffing, you can play poker in a volcano and still keep your poker face
12:51 pm
Vicuna

Why, because I'll fail to notice the volcano, like I always do in Babble?
12:51 pm
72 Temple Owl

hi nut!
12:52 pm
hurshy

lol, no vi, it's just a mnemonic device...because the volcano is the poker word backwards, so if you get one, you can think to get the other
12:52 pm
Vicuna

I AM good at bluffing -- see, bet you can't tell what I'm thinking!
12:52 pm

No, hetty, but the singular is.

hetty

Agreed
1:48 pm

re 6/24 = with a bad antenna, your tv will get bad re****ion
1:52 pm
brandyjack

I know, haven't seen it forever, kept getting fooled by the look of the fresca, although it's not green enough..... Now that I know what I'm looking for, frustration is likely to set in permanently......

that's like something to grind grains in... like the regal word, but change the fourth letter to a consonant
3:11 pm

so sure i MUST have monkeyed that before vic....nice clue tho'
3:13 pm
Vicuna

Can anyone please give me a clue for the te5/12 and te5/10 immediately following the te6/21. I'm assuming htey're related? But maybe that's part of my problem?
3:13 pm
stidmama

CE 6/24 please? It's the last C I need...
3:14 pm
Vicuna

ce6/24 - night-blooming plant, sounds like "You can't be se------!"
3:14 pm
seano216k

sounds like john macenroe...you cannot be ce 5/24
3:14 pm
gwenski

te5/12: indian dwelling
3:15 pm
Vicuna

Thanks, gwenski. I looked at that a hundred times and thought it had to have 4 e's. Serves me right for assuming ANYTHING where enable's involved!
3:15 pm
stidmama

thanks for the CE, done with that letter now! :-)
3:16 pm
hetty

Vi, they are NOT related. The first is an Indian tent and the second is withoit defn--looks like latin for eareth minus one of the t's
3:16 pm

please could anyone help with thept
3:17 pm
dromano66

pt9
3:17 pm
hetty

I'll try again Vi.For te5/10 take latin for "earth", take away on eof the hoo0ks, and add a third vowel
3:19 pm
gwenski

from an earlier clue: p + Miss Hatcher + to eat
3:19 pm
Vicuna

pt9 - starts like prehistoric flying reptile, ends like the io6/21 chemical
3:19 pm
stidmama

pt 9 looks prehistoric...start with a type of flying reptile (5 letters), change the o to another vowel and end with the four letter word meaning "to eat"
3:19 pm
hetty

Th pt is a real dilly,add a wor beginning with the second vowel that looks as if it has something to do wth being learned, except a third vowel reolaces the fifth one and it ends in a hook instead of a cross before the final second vowel
3:20 pm
stidmama

hetty, following that clue I think I just did a fancy ritual that absolves me of my sins... LOL
3:21 pm
caitlyn

lol stid
3:21 pm
hetty

Stiud has an excelent clue. I couodn't think what the prehistoric crteature was
3:21 pm

All those hooks and crosses will do it, eh, stidmama!

3:22 pm
Vicuna

di6/21 - Spanish money
3:22 pm
hetty

di6/21 simply adds a third vowel to one who eats
