3:32 am
sprite
Have been thinking of you, FMitch. Hope you can give yourself time and rest for a while longer.
3:33 am
ren8
Sorry to ask but I don't know what is wrong FMitch
3:34 am
Andree
hi sprite , fmitch and haz and anyone else i've missed
3:35 am
sprite
why isn't coita the plural of coitus?
3:35 am
Haz1558
Because it would be coiti, I think - the a ending comes after a -um, singular.
3:35 am
FranMag
makes sense to me sprite.
3:36 am
FMitch
((sprite))
LOL delicately put Haz
3:36 am
sprite
Darn, you are right, I had forgotten that.
3:37 am
Haz1558
Not that there was much talk about the co word in Latin class......
3:37 am
FranMag
except coiti not in the dictionary either
3:37 am

strangely enough, because it is one of the very few Latin words everybody knows...

3:40 am

3:40 am
FranMag
andree, the 5/12 and 6/21 is an animal, add a vowel to the outerwear.
3:40 am
Haz1558
co5/12 - add a vowel to the garment?
3:40 am
FranMag
and then plural for the co6/21
3:41 am
FranMag
it's related to a raccoon.
3:41 am

FranMag

3:55 am
Andree
she is cute
3:57 am
Andree
not sure i approve am a great believer in using real words with kids
3:58 am
sprite
I thought she had made up the word herself.
3:58 am
FranMag
maybe it's just how she pronounces it.
3:59 am
FranMag
for "privates" right?
3:59 am
Andree
sprite think she is trying to say privates
3:59 am
Andree
miss 7 when she was 3 never stopped talking about her bajina!!!
4:00 am
sprite
Ah, that is so sweet :) And almost unpronounceable for kids indeed.
4:00 am
sprite
beautiful! I like bajina better.
4:00 am
FranMag
now that's cute.
4:00 am
Andree
at least she got close to the right word
4:01 am
FMitch

4:12 am
Atalante

4:16 am
Atalante
um yeah, sorry about that!
4:17 am

Ata, did you see that what you are making for me is almost in the g4?
4:17 am
Andree
boston take the n out of ata's phantom
4:18 am
bostonmermaid
what?
4:18 am
sprite
Don't they use 'sotto voce' in English?
4:18 am
Odin
ty sprite and Ata ...got it
4:18 am
Atalante
oh! yes! woohooo!
4:20 am
bostonmermaid
help! I need a clue for the 10!!
4:20 am
Andree
just gave one boston
4:24 am
bostonmermaid
I don't understand your clue
4:24 am
bostonmermaid
her phantom?
4:25 am
movieman
boston - andree means the "phantom" word that atalante just recently posted.......
4:25 am
Odin
scroll down to Ata phantom word 4:07 and go from there
4:26 am
sprite
no one on my sotto voce question?
4:27 am
Andree
I would use that phrase sprite
4:28 am
bostonmermaid
ahhh, THANK YOU, got it
4:28 am
sprite
thanks, wondered if enable was being an i5 or that the phrase was totally unused in english.
4:29 am
Andree
can't see it on morewords sprite?
4:29 am
Andree
enable is an id***
4:29 am
sprite
no, enable won't accept it either, hence my question
4:31 am
zysx
i need to add 10 letter words to my excel
4:32 am
sprite
phantom: cardigan
4:38 am
Haz1558
Perha[s it's not accepted because it's part of a two word phrase and not generally used on its own?
4:38 am
sprite
probably, yes.
4:39 am
Andree
thx haz that would explain it
4:39 am
Haz1558
Of course, the stupidity of enable would make an equally vadid explanation...
4:40 am
Andree
I have no co words after the cloth, help please
4:40 am
movieman
that can't be it, haz, 'cos "terra" is an acceptable word, but "firma" isn't.......
4:40 am
sprite
Looked it up in the dutch dictionary and it is listed there, in the meaning 'from under', like the lower hand when playing piano.
4:40 am
FMitch
If enable was straightforward and correct, would babble be as much fun?
4:41 am
Andree
I think terra is a word on its own movie
4:41 am
sprite
of course not FMitch! We'd miss the daily opportunity to nag :)
4:41 am
Andree
sprite said a word
4:41 am
sprite
ooohhhhh! I am sorry, I even had it :(
4:41 am
Odin
The co cloth is my last co Andree
4:41 am
Andree
and there is only diet food in the naughty corner
4:42 am
Andree
I know because i have already been there
4:42 am
kthdsn
morning everyone
4:43 am
sprite
I have the other half of terra listed in the cos :)
4:43 am
FMitch
Andree, you mean you ate all the good stuff and left the heathy!
4:44 am
Andree
there was no good stuff there, think thats the actual punishment
4:44 am
movieman
phantom: donations
4:45 am
Haz1558
It's the New Year policy, FMitch - people were sending themselves to the naughty corner/penalty spot. There has to be a deterrent element. (Could I be a magistrate in my spare time?)
4:45 am
sprite
you probably could, Haz! If you had any spare time, that is :)
4:45 am
kthdsn
it's not often we see a 10 letter word
4:46 am
FMitch
LOL I see Haz
4:46 am
Haz1558
It might interfere with babble, though.
4:47 am
sprite
I found the 8s, finally, now moving on to the rest of the 7s. Only one of the 8s was a plural to a 7.
4:47 am
Haz1558
And would a magistrate have any street cred with a spaniel sitting beside her?
4:48 am
Atalante
spaniels provide street cred!
4:48 am
sprite
Sure would, Haz. You could point at your sweet spaniel and say: "If you look for sympathy, look at her, not at me."
4:48 am
FMitch
OF course Haz, Im sure Spangle can do a stern stare.
4:48 am
FranMag
back from QP!
4:49 am
Haz1558
She could give them a doleful look and make them sorry for doing wrong.
4:49 am
Atalante
exactly! even a hardened criminal would melt under a spaniel stare
4:50 am
Haz1558
The paw on the leg, or the head on the lap would finish them off.
4:50 am
sprite
It would be such a fitting punishment, to have criminals walk around with a pic of Spangle and the obligation to look at her eyes each time they want to do something.
4:51 am
Atalante
or the ears flopping down associated with The Look
4:51 am
FranMag
hi andree
4:52 am
Haz1558
The last time I shouted at Spangle (digging a hole in the garden) I ended up apologising to her.
4:52 am
FranMag
thanks for that co5 sprite, didn't have that one.
4:52 am
Andree
will have to leave last 5 co words til later, have tried everything
4:55 am
Atalante
that happens here too, haz .... outrageous isn't it!
4:56 am
Haz1558
I was a strict mother as well - but all goes out the window with the dog.
4:56 am
FranMag
andree, do you have the co4/5,5/12 combo? change last letter of the penny.
4:56 am

Anyway, sadly I have to go, but will be back later. Bye all!

welcome back kthdsn
6:19 am
kthdsn
I'm having a really crappy day today, I feel really alone, my music is upsetting me and I keep shouting at the kids
6:20 am
kthdsn
I've got a friend coming to visit but i don't know what time
6:22 am
kthdsn
I know I'm doing really well in general, but right now I just want to fall apart and cry and scream, I would kill for a cuddle, for someone to tell me that everything is ok
6:23 am
BabbleRabble
Find a place away from your children and get it our of your system
6:25 am
BabbleRabble
Your children too in their way are grieving.
6:26 am
BabbleRabble
It will be all right if you decide it will be. There will be tough days, but you can choose to get through this.
6:27 am
kthdsn
I know babble, I am choosing to get through it, but right this minute it's too difficult to smile
6:27 am
BabbleRabble
Don't then.
6:29 am
kthdsn
the tough days are just so hard because there's noone here, I've got to go through it on my own, I don't have a shoulder to cry on
6:32 am
kthdsn
it's not him that I miss, it's just someone, anyone would do
6:32 am
jean1953
must away, been away from the computer for a few mins, kthdsn just read you chat, I really hope you can have a better rest of the day keep your chin up x :)
6:33 am
BabbleRabble
You don't need one. Do what you have to do .... you are entitled to grieve .... in the end, you must pick up the pieces and move on.
6:33 am
jean1953
bbl later:)
6:34 am
BabbleRabble
You said before when you friends came you would cry with them ... do it ... let all the emotions out
6:38 am
kthdsn
I miss having someone to hug and kiss and stuff, I miss chatting about nothing while I fall asleep, I miss having a man here
6:41 am
EspritdJean
(((((kthdsn)))) will a cyber hug help?
6:41 am
kthdsn
it helps a little jean
6:42 am
EspritdJean
do you have local support...close friends or family?
6:43 am
kthdsn
no, everyone I know in the UK lives at least 30 miles away
6:43 am
EspritdJean
do you have support groups in your area?
6:44 am
kthdsn
we moved here 2 and a half years ago and i haven't met anyone here, he made loads of friends at the pub where he works but he never introduced any of them to me, so he's gone off with a load of people around him and left me all on my own
6:46 am
EspritdJean
I know from the chat that this is very new and so still very raw
6:46 am
kthdsn
a friend is meant to be coming over today but I don't know what time and I don't have his damned phone number
6:46 am
EspritdJean
do you work outside your home?
6:46 am
mousey
hi mousey aaa i mean kth
6:46 am
kthdsn
i did but I quit
6:47 am
EspritdJean
anything you can do to keep yourself connected to the world will be helpful
6:47 am
mousey
no swearing kth
6:47 am
EspritdJean
and tell your friends that you need hugs!
6:48 am
Tiny
Good Evening Everybody
6:48 am
Denny
is it me or is this a seemingly nasty grid? i just cannot see words today!
6:48 am
kthdsn
my mum should be online soon so I will be able to chat to her, but it's not the same as her actually being here
6:48 am
kthdsn
denny it's a horrid grid
6:49 am
Denny
soo many phantom words...
6:49 am
kthdsn
brb I'm going to go pamper myself a little, see if I can cheer myself up
6:49 am
mousey
she better not see that your swearing
6:49 am
mousey
we can do that
6:50 am
EspritdJean
my free advice, worth exactly what you paid for it, is: respect your emotions as babblerabble said, try to involve yourself in activities and always have something to look forward to. And let people KNOW what you NEED
6:51 am
mousey
kth home come you never change your icon
6:51 am
Denny

6:52 am
mattygroves
Working on the AN words.

6:57 am
mattygroves
Can anyone clue the two an6s?
6:58 am
Denny

6:58 am
kthdsn
I have one an6, it's a plural, silly stuff you get up to, sorry not a great clue
6:58 am
majmom
good day all-been so busy with the holidays and kids being home plus working no time to babble lately-need a clue for the an 6/24 and an 7/32?
6:59 am
mattygroves
I've got the plural one, but not the an6/24 (and thanks for what, Denny?)
7:00 am
ursh
an7/32 - someone or thing that is against motor vehicle
7:00 am
mattygroves
Got that one - I'm after an6/24...
7:01 am
mousey
kth want to see what i might be for holloween?
7:01 am
kthdsn
Halloween? it's January...
7:02 am
featherbee
morning! is this one as tough as yesterday's?
7:02 am
mattygroves
AN6/24 help please?
7:02 am
ursh
sorry matty dont have
7:02 am
M.P.
Question generally directied to everyone: Is Qu 1 ir 2 letters ... more generally, do words have to be four LETTERS or four TILES?
7:02 am
mousey
kth do you want to see or do you not?
7:02 am
kthdsn
yes feather it's mean
7:03 am
M.P.
Sounds interesting, mousey ... I]
7:03 am
featherbee
qu is counted as two letters
7:03 am
mattygroves
Letters - so QU4 has four letters including the u.
7:03 am
doraphilia
M.P-- qu counts as 1
7:03 am
M.P.
It's still the aprostrophies ... I'm already planning
7:03 am
doraphilia
I mean two sorrry!
7:03 am
riemann
four LETTERS. I have an example today....
7:03 am
mattygroves
Pllleeeassseeeee....an6/24...?
7:03 am
doraphilia
I need the an 6/24 too!
7:04 am
M.P.
So ... it counts as TWO, dorphilia?
7:04 am
mousey
go to ebay then type in wwe superstar gear then go to the first thing you see
7:04 am
majmom
any more hints to the an 7
7:04 am
mattygroves
For example one of the Qs is a four letter word meaning to give up - three tiles, four letters.
7:04 am
doraphilia
yes, a word with qu and two other tiles counts as a 4-letter word.
7:04 am
riemann
matty: try an adjective form of one pole of a battery for the first an6
7:05 am
kthdsn
mousey I see different stuff to you since I'm in the UK
7:05 am
M.P.
Mousey, we're stuck in Babble land till we do this puzzle, or at least have more than one word ... just tell us.
7:05 am
riemann
the an7 is a compound word
7:05 am
ursh
an7 = an4/4 + ca4/5
7:05 am
M.P.
And kth's problem ... but I guess I can look (you're in the US, right?)
7:05 am
mattygroves
Thanks Riemann!

Mom
Bye Featherbee, congrats on the grayed box! :)
8:50 am
Scrabbler
Yes! Go featherbee! I like to grey out the boxes with just a few words, when I start. It helps my "Babble Self-esteem".
8:51 am
Scrabbler
Wow--I just greyed out the Q box too.

No E, therefore no RE today. Whew! And one S.
8:56 am
Scrabbler
LOL, FMItch--I like your metaphor.
8:56 am
Haz1558
Still - you're a lot further on than me. And paint drying? They even make television programmes about that now!
8:58 am
Haz1558
The lack of an e is frustrating, but with it we'd be here all day. What am I talking about, we ARE here all day.
8:59 am

9:25 am
Scrabbler
TY Annie. I got the cheese, as you can see, but I am still looking for the ri that is similar to the cheese.

I'd probably find more words if I didn't chat so much, but I need some laughs.
9:40 am

No, my role model for etiquette is the Queen. Though come to think of it, she's never shown eating. Goodness knows what she may get up to at those banquets.

M.P.
Dorens and hurshy, on the topic of profiles, have really neat pictures ... well, Hurshy's is more cute, but anyway
11:11 am
hurshy
well if you don't have an opinion, how do you know that it isn't scary?
11:11 am
M.P.
My opinion is that it's true, but I find that for things like that children aren't as scared
11:11 am
hurshy
my, this di is elusive!

11:14 am
Aloyisius
maybe it is the di5.14 that refers to a major division of the plant kingdom; the plants with two seed leaves
11:14 am
hurshy
thanks brabble
11:14 am
M.P.
I now wish for three-letter words to be allowed, although that would be easy to find
11:14 am
M.P.
(they would, I mean) ... but I know it's never going to happen
11:15 am
mousey
OUCH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
11:15 am
hurshy
personally, i think brabble's quote is empowering. the leaders have an advantage if they know this and the people don't. but if the people realize this, then they can say... we're mad as heck and we're not going to take it anymore!
11:15 am
hurshy
uhoh, did mousey get caught in a mousetrap?
11:16 am
M.P.
I have to agree hurshy that it's empowering
11:16 am
sherb
thanks Aloy :)
11:17 am
hurshy
i'll have to try to remember the def of that di5.
11:17 am
M.P.
I think so, and it was just luck that it pushed O-U-C-H-!-!-!-!-! and so on
11:17 am
smooth_pappa
I disagree, when you look at the other covert actions that we are learning about, that have beengoing on to strip that voice and power away from the people en masse
11:17 am
M.P.
Got to have lunch now, ta-ta for now

11:19 am
mousey
i just smashed it in to a a wooden chair
11:19 am
hurshy
i would like to share that i have found 2 mo7 and 2 ri7. if anyone else feels inclined to share what 7's they have found, i certainly wouldn't object.
11:20 am
hurshy
why would you do that, mousey?
11:20 am
smooth_pappa
no not at all... but the mindset of our current administration is chilling to me... The rationale that they use to defend some of these actions. And I know that (i hope) the actions aren't doene with sinister intent, but intent doesn't always matter all that much...
11:20 am
mousey
didnt see it
11:20 am

BabbleR, just read your bio. How true, how true!!! To whom was Goering speaking?

Correct, sherb.:)
11:46 am
Aloyisius
lol, scrabbler... I'm afraid my grey matter would atrophy since Babble is such a challenge listless... however, I know my limit and I just can't see weirdo words so it is hopeless to try

11:49 am
Haz1558
Yes, sit back from the computer, avert your gaze slightly and see if you don't see a glass of water!
11:49 am
Jacula
No, Haz. This is a summer pic. The Liverpudlians & The Scaffolding (sounds like a group) were in November.
11:50 am

I remember The Scaffold. They were from Liverpool as well.
11:51 am

Can someone accidentally put the following words in the chatbox? Second co5,12; fourth co4,5; third co5,12; second co6,21; the fourth and fifth co5, 12's, and the last co6,21. I will sit in the penalty box with you to keep you company.

Anyway, before I drown in nostalgia, I must toddle off. Nice to see you all - happy hunting!

1:29 pm
harpjane
ok atalante, (glad you asked!) I think that if people don't want you to wear shoes in their house, and they invite you over, then they should 1. tell you ahead of time and 2. offer slippers or something when you arrive, rather than expect their guests to go barefoot or in their stockings.
1:30 pm
Scrabbler
Clues for na6,21 and na5,10 please....I am suffering with this gr4.
1:30 pm
hurshy
oh harp, they did a sex and the city episode about that!
1:31 pm
Scrabbler
I agree, Jane.
1:31 pm

I'm not talking about cultures where there are differing customs. I'm talking about Montana. I use inserts in my shoes and I am very uncomfortable without them.
1:31 pm

1:31 pm

1:31 pm
harpjane
I think the practice of hospitality should "over-ride" the practice of wanting to keep your carpet clean....
1:32 pm
Atalante
I agree harpjane! or turn a blind eye and let people wear their shoes!
1:32 pm
hurshy
um... carrie went to a party and they made everyone take off their shoes because they had a young child who crawled and they didn't want him to eat dirt. and carrie was wearing ridiculously expensive shoes (surprise surprise) and then when she went to leave someone had stolen them
1:32 pm
BabbleRabble
if it was a meeting .. go to neutral ground
1:32 pm
KatieMcG
Thanks scrabble. I don't have people wearing shoes in my house as I have cream carpets and never thought it was an issue before........oops!!
1:33 pm
Scrabbler
Duh on the na6--I had formed the na5 singular in the other direction.
1:33 pm
LoriP
All righty then. Found my error. 13 left now!
1:33 pm
LoriP
G'd afternoon ren.
1:33 pm
hurshy
we don't wear our shoes in the house, but when people come over i give them the option. most people take them off, but if they don't feel comfortable doing so, they leave them on and that is fine.
1:34 pm
Scrabbler
If the shoes are clean and dry then it is a non-issue.
1:34 pm

Hi Scrabbler

katie, i can understand that. I hope offer alternatives. I was at a dinner party recently where the host and hostess had very nice slippers for themselves but the guests all were in stocking feet. All I had was my thin nylon stockings.
1:34 pm
ursh
i have the ri7 - italian cheese i think - clue for the other please
1:34 pm
hurshy
(i don't even really GIVE them the option, they usually ask cause they see the shoe rack full of shoes, and i say, whatever you want to do is fine)
1:35 pm
LoriP
Babies need their peck of dirt/germs to build their immune systems! Shoes on is a silly issue. Just use common sense, IMO.
1:35 pm
KatieMcG
scrabbler, that's the problem with my house, i am on a new estate and there is loads of mud around. It's not an issue in the summer but as soon as it rains it's a nightmare. Honestly cream carpets what a muppet!!
1:35 pm
hurshy
you need to change the 3rd and last letters, ursh
1:35 pm
Scrabbler
My feet are cold all of the time--even in the summer I sleep with socks on--so in the winter I like shoes or slippers on.
1:36 pm
Scrabbler
I have cream carpeting throughout my LR and DR.
1:36 pm
Atalante
if I want someone in my house, I want them enough to get the vacuum cleaner out afterwards if they traipse mud in!

no shoes? what's next, sniff the socks so the child isn't gagged by odor?

We have cream carpet and it's a nightmare with kids. I can't WAIT to rip it up!
1:36 pm

we have boot scrapers outside our doors; most of our friends know about them. When we have company, we suck it up and clean up later.
1:37 pm

When I save enough money I am getting hardwood floors.

hi ren - am back, armed with a pb&j, to finish this gr4. shoes on/off is an issue in our fam; some are shoes off and some don't mind.. so we do like the Romans..
1:37 pm
KatieMcG
I've just sold my house and the next one will not have cream carpets downstairs!! funnily enough I now expect to take my shoes off in all houses I enter which gets me some very strange looks if it's not expected by the host :-)
1:37 pm
LoriP
The hub thinks it should be illegal to sell cream colored carpets. LOL
1:38 pm
Scrabbler
Jane, do your friends (the ones not allowing shoes) also have their furniture covered in plastic and require toilet seat covers?
1:38 pm
hurshy
i like giving people the option because then at least there is at least LESS dirt, but nobody has to be made uncomfortable.
1:38 pm
harpjane
ok I'm done. back to the game....
1:39 pm
Scrabbler
PB & J---sounds like a great idea for lunch, except I have no bread!

1:39 pm
harpjane
If I know ahead of time I bring my own slippers. Ok, NOW I'm done!
1:39 pm
hurshy
the furniture covered in plastic thing is so weird! it's to keep it looking nice, right? but since it has plastic on it, it looks like crap!
1:39 pm
ursh
We have warm/hot climate here so most floors hardwood or ceramic tile with loose rugs so shoes not an issue
1:39 pm

2:16 pm
hurshy
oh, and scrabbler and mousey have got on the bandwagon too... i'm going, i'm going...
2:17 pm
M.P.
Hurshy technically should go exersize because if you don't excersize the excess calories and fat won't get burnt and if you don't burn your excess calories and fat all of it will build up in your body, more particularily in front of your stomach, and then it will shape into a big round ball and you're fat. So there.
2:17 pm
grammaterri1

libarebel
fa10--stat of enthrallment minus single hump letter?
4:46 pm
EspritdJean

4:47 pm
cybernan
fa 6/30: the piece of board that runs along the edge on the eaves of a roof
4:48 pm
EspritdJean
ok have that now
4:48 pm
EspritdJean
but don't see how that leads to a state of enthrallment
4:48 pm
cybernan
drop a letter from the enthrallment word
4:49 pm
jakenizzy
espritdjean... you're not alone, i've been struggling with this one all day... and i'm dumb enough to not know what the 6 - board is ...
4:49 pm

that fa6/30 is also referred to anatomically in muscle/ligaments
4:50 pm

the state of awe is also a shop similar to Victoria's Secret
4:52 pm
cybernan
then add a very common suffix that means 'state of being'
4:53 pm
Shannon1

any clues for the an6 for 24
5:22 pm
kristinc
umm...sort of...not a whole lot at first (although I ended up with an infection and consequently some extra ultrasounds to make sure all was well). They will start watching really close at 30 weeks with non stress tests every 5 days and at least now, they are willing to induce about 37 weeks which will help us rest easier...not as long to wait :) but really from all they can tell, our issues with him were random (although he was a really active baby)
5:22 pm
klaurel
discovered that it is too much hell. I like being at home and living off my hubby
5:23 pm
kristinc
welcome back klaurel!
5:23 pm

OUCH, Kristin! I had stress tests TWICE a week for like 3 months, restricted activity, and bedrest for 2 days
