Words I keep trying, despite KNOWING they're not words (here): arcon. oreo. There are definitely more.

5:24 am

Karys

I just have to say pa/8 ...... because I never get an 8 and I'm a little overexcited !!!

5:34 am

mattygroves

Can you tell me which P I should be looking at, please, Karys?

5:35 am

Scrabbler

I am searching for that pa8 as well.

5:36 am

Karys

The left Pa Matty

5:37 am

mattygroves

OK looking. Would it be awful of me to ask if you could share the score of that word as well?

5:39 am

Karys

pa8/50 .....you will see it right away

5:41 am

mattygroves

I'm feeling very dense. Or blind.

5:41 am

Scrabbler

No idea. Is it a compound word?

5:43 am

Scrabbler

Words are obvious after we find them. 196 words are still hiding on me.

5:44 am

Karys

no...it's a past tense plural I think ...but don't quote me... start with the pa and go one more right then back up left again and you will kick yourself .... I think it's alovely word.

5:45 am

mattygroves

Ah hah! It's a bit of a joke of a word ;)

5:45 am

Karys

A bit heavenly but spell it wrongly !

5:45 am

mattygroves

(at least the one I found is a 'joke'. Perhaps there are two?)

5:46 am

Karys

Thank you Matty ... I couldn't think what I wanted to say and you've got it exactly

5:46 am

Scrabbler

Aha, a satirical story or skit.

I enjoy clueing too when I'm able to, sometimes it helps me find a word when someone asks for a clue

12:26 pm

doseffing

... it's just me ... I use it as punctuation to mean a pause longer than a comma

12:27 pm

MummyBear

ok

12:27 pm

doseffing

... I put it at the start because I find that it helps me remember to move the cursor back to the word box before I start trying to put words into the grid again

either of the last two sc 6/24 would be nice...

7:11 pm

the first of the 2 - just add a vowel to the previous word. The 2nd one is s + pt of weeping

The last one contains a double vowel.

7:12 pm

7:14 pm

Lizlin

ap 8 - ap + vowel + first 2 of weeping sound + most of number before 10

7:14 pm

penquis

a + like the p word meaning like a pig that is the grid, but switch the order of the two middle consonants....

7:14 pm
