geez, i can't believe that alt-bee. yesterday i put occurence before thinking, ok, it's occurrence and that went in. well i tried nonoccurrence and that didn't go. and now today when i look at the answers for yesterday it says i missed nonoccurence! WHY would they count the root with TWO r's and the non- with ONE???

8:00 am

Calllie

Stye

8:01 am

mael

I'm still missing two cs

FW! does anyone want any hints?

8:16 am

phaeton

he5/18?

8:17 am

8:19 am

mael

8:22 am

cybernan

8:26 am

bichon

nan, how do you see the monar with Charles in charge?chy

8:27 am

bichon

sorry monarchy charge

8:30 am

BzznBea

Nan, the ac8 is a + metal container + small word meaning therefore

8:31 am

penquis

ty, bea....

8:31 am

cybernan

I thik a lot of the tradition will be preserved. I think he did very well by Cornwall and as a stand in for the Queen lately, so no reason he shouldn't fullfill the role of king well ailso

8:32 am

mael

the ac7 is the plural of the ac8, it's a plant

8:32 am

cybernan

I can't imagine how difficult it must be for them to march in a procession like this.

8:33 am

cybernan

ty for the ac mael

8:41 am

MollyL

I hope Charles is in good shape. A 40 minute march is a lot for a man of 73.

8:49 am

cybernan

Anne is marching also and she's 71 I think

9:10 am

HarryHood

ty phaeton for the he5. nbt now :)

9:47 am

MollyL

Farewell Good Saint

10:28 am

hurshy

gah, i can't figure it out

10:29 am

hurshy

maybe there are two different ac7s??

10:30 am

hurshy

yes, that was the problem!

10:30 am

Book Doctor Gwen

Hi all. Diving in

10:31 am

MollyL

Is that the continuation of a conversation from hours ago?

10:32 am

hurshy

yes

10:32 am

hurshy

i was tutoring in between

10:32 am

MollyL

You tutor during school hours? How does that work?

10:33 am

hurshy

the kids are assigned to the tutoring program as one of their classes

10:37 am

MollyL

So it's part of the school curriculum? Not extra tutoring parents have to pay for?

10:44 am

moolingwa

morning all

10:46 am

Book Doctor Gwen

Not finally

10:47 am

Book Doctor Gwen

Nbt. Silly phone

11:04 am

Book Doctor Gwen

Thought I found a 7 but nope 🙅🏻

11:04 am

moolingwa

11:15 am

aebmusica

sh6....clue please

11:18 am

MollyL

not he + thank you very m---

11:19 am

aebmusica

ty Molly... never seen that word before

11:27 am

MollyL

It is a Scot word (no big surprise for this place) Take the S off for another word

11:28 am

aebmusica

ty...it means ditch or trough

11:29 am

MollyL

Yes, I looked it up which is how I knew it was a Scot word

11:30 am

aebmusica

we seem to have almost more foreign words than English ones

11:30 am

Uneaixoise

True.....

12:01 pm

MollyL

I agree but some pedant will probably come along and correct that statement.

12:49 pm

cybernan

hi again --- can't figure out how to get from net he to thankyou

12:52 pm

cybernan

*sigh* I wish Dr. G would get a new dictionary for this game. Most of the "words" are imaginary, atrocious spelling, or not English. It isn't fun anymore.

1:05 pm

MollyL

Not he is ____ + thank you very m____ (those last three letters, not thank you)

1:06 pm

cybernan

ty molly

1:06 pm

MollyL

I can't believe it would be that hard to have the game feed off of a new dictionary. Maybe it's a matter of money. He doesn't make money here anymore so probably won't spend money.

1:22 pm

cybernan

seems a shame -- wonder why he quit selling memberships?

1:23 pm

MollyL

Internet boards have not been money makers for some time. Not unless you allow ads. Even then, not the money makers they used to be.

1:25 pm

periwinkle

help with en8 please

1:25 pm

moolingwa

1:26 pm

1:26 pm

periwinkle

great clue, thank you moo

1:27 pm

MollyL

Oh look at Peri being Rhyme Girl

1:29 pm

cybernan

18 left, but tire of this -- no up to finding "words" that will probably never appear again

1:45 pm

MollyL

I agree with you Nan. These grids are way too full of words that mean very little to most people who play.

2:25 pm

HarryHood

40 here. tough going.

2:43 pm

Bugsaw

does anyone here know if there is a way to see how many words are possible each day in Spelling Bee?

2:49 pm

moolingwa

yes click on Today's Hints

2:52 pm

Bugsaw

thanks moo. I will keep looking for it but I am playing on the free site. It may not be there or I may not be able to see it just yet.

2:54 pm

moolingwa

yeah, can't say for the free site I'm afraid

2:54 pm

Uneaixoise

First ac7 please?

2:56 pm

moolingwa

I only have one, but it might be the one you're looking for

2:56 pm

moolingwa

you could make a homonym of it by creating a throbbing cereal :)
