I'm sure pronghorns pronked - they were also a kind of antelope - so an American based dictionary should allow pronk, one woud think.

Hi Shadowedsea. We were all newbies at one stage. All of us! And we have all mistakenly put words from the grid into the chatlog. And guess what? Nobody died. 😂 Babble is a nice place, with nice people. Enjoy the experience.

8:10 pm

Kaplan the Magne

I have put words in the chat and everyone yelled at me! Because I kept doing it!

8:11 pm

Kaplan the Magne

The way I play now is just see how many words I can get on my own throughout the day- I rarely finish and don't go for the list. I hate small grids. It's relaxing to go back to while I am procrastinating from other things.

9:10 pm

Gillie

It's not necessarily "yelling". Sometimes a player will say something in the hope that that will draw the person's attention to what they are doing.
