can you use the X ?
1:09 am
shortseer

I haven't used the X in any words yet ... but as i've only got about 20 words so far, that doesn't mean much.

All i can say is the X isn't a start letter.
1:27 am

shortseer

There are 2x W5 words
One is a plural of a W4

The other W5 is a fish (Acanthocybium solanderi)
I'd never heard of this fish ... until i looked it up i thought the W5 was the expression a Babbler might make on finding the last word in the puzzle ;)
6:26 pm
fit1

YEOWWW short. Thanks for the great W clue. Now i only need 7 more words.
6:27 pm
fit1

oh dear goodness. I found the last W word. It is a simple everyday word. What a num num I am

6:33 pm
fit1

Is the SA word a 4 or 5
6:39 pm
marigold

Thanks I got it. I would never have thought of that as a fish.
6:53 pm
shortseer

SA5 pelvic bone (plural)
6:56 pm
periwinkle

shortsheer, I believe a better clue for the SA5 is: plural for the bone at the base of your spine
7:00 pm
shortseer

@peri: you could be right

----------

I4 adv. Certainly; assuredly (Archaic)

We've had this one before.
Starts with the i in the 3rd column

7:04 pm
periwinkle

I have 2 O words. 4/4 and 4/7. Any hints?
7:09 pm
shortseer

You are missing an o4/o5 sequence
I think it's an hawaiian tree ... but it sounds rather like the name of another american state ;)
7:12 pm
periwinkle

shortseer, I found the o/4 right before your post. But can't find the o/5. Is it the plural of the o/4.?
7:17 pm
periwinkle

shortsheer, nevermind, I found the plural of the o/4. I was focusing on the wrong A. :)
7:30 pm
youngster

MammaJill, I have the same 'w's as you did at 06:28. What clue gave you the last w?
And I still don't know that crayfish!
7:34 pm
dimwit

the first half of the crayfish is a word, I think Scottish, for throat
7:39 pm
youngster

dimwit, ok, what about the 2nd half :) ?
7:40 pm
dimwit

periwinkle, did you get the h you were looking for ?
7:40 pm
dimwit

youngster the second half is paternal
7:42 pm
youngster

dimwit, got it thanks. I'd never have known that!
7:45 pm
youngster

dimwit, Showing my inexperience here, but how did you work that one out?
7:47 pm
dimwit

Actually I just saw it - I'm sure I have heard the word used in films.
7:50 pm
youngster

I'd hoped there was some simpler way of getting these words I've never heard of. Another daft question, is there any way of keeping a check on the log without constantly having to 'add'?
7:52 pm
dimwit

Do you mean the log in the drop down box of words you have tried ? I don't have that in Netscape but you should be able to click on the arrow at the side I think. otherwise there's always pencil and paper....:D
7:54 pm
youngster

No, I mean when someone adds a comment or clue here.
7:56 pm
dimwit

click the refresh/reload button on the top toolbar

9:16 pm
dimwit

are you sure there are 3 ri's ? I don't have any and I have only 1 more word to go.
9:18 pm
fit1

Peri, you can't need 3 ri's. I am only missing 1 r word and I have no ri's. That may be one I'm missing, but there
can't be 3 of them
9:20 pm
shortseer

R4 (starts from R on 2nd row)
Any species of turbellarian worms belonging to Planaria, and many allied genera. The body is usually flat, thin, and smooth. Some species, in warm countries, are terrestrial.

9:21 pm
dimwit

Thanks for the sort of clue there, I have found the ri and now I can finally go to bed ! (it's 3.21am)

9:25 pm
fit1

I have CA 4/7, 4/6, 4/6 and 4/9

9:26 pm
fit1

9:28 pm
fit1

It's the plural. YAYYYYYYYYYYYY. And now for the HO please!!!!!!
9:32 pm
shortseer

1x Hi4
2x Ho4
2x Ho5
9:37 pm
fit1

Shortseer. I was missing an HI not an HO. And like the W, it was an everyday word which just eluded me. I finally found it. What a jerk. But I'm done!!!!!! And at peace with the world. LOL
