7:45 am

carolecs

tourmalinity could I please have a clue for the B8/65. Thanx, C.

7:47 am

testing

There are at least 4 x B/7/36.

And I'm with you on that one Atalante. I know it can be spelled with a Z, but I thought it was good with an S as well. At least it's in several online dictionaries spelled that way . . .

7:50 am

testing

Make that 5 x B/7/36

8:02 am

M/7/48 M/8/65 combo

Atalante

Well catalyse with a s was fine with all my chemistry and biochemistry lecturers ;)

8:09 am

testing

S/7/28

I'm always told that I shouldn't be able to read, write or spell being that I'm an engineer. Do they say the same about scientists? :D

8:09 am

testing

R/7/28

8:11 am

testing

And a second C/7/36. I think that's all the 7s, 8s and 9s.

8:13 am

Atalante

Scientists are expected to be able to spell big complicated Latin words and not a lot else!

12:04 pm

carolecs

12:27 pm

Gail

I believe that the b6,b7,b8 and b9 are all alternative spellings of the word for things you fill up with helium for parties. There is no definition given for any of them

1:01 pm

dawny

1:14 pm

fit1

h7, those who listen

1:24 pm

Lains

Quick hello Mom

1:40 pm

dawny

thanks fit1 i got it, could you offer me a clue on the a7 please

1:56 pm

fit1

a7/28 directly from the definition:
A throwing device usually consisting of a stick fitted with a thong or socket to steady the butt of a spear or dart and extend the length it travels.

2:05 pm

dawny

fit1 i have the dictionary out and im searching for the definition you gave me and i still cant find it so could i have the second letter please.

2:21 pm

Gail

Dawny, you can cut and paste the definition into a google search to get the word, too. It will take you to links to dictionaries and such.

2:33 pm

shattered

Hi Gail, That's what I did. I'm still not getting the b8 & b9

2:42 pm

sarcasticah

Hey, shattered! The definition for the b8 is Ball-like or bouncing step. And there's a plural.

2:45 pm

shattered

thanx ME

3:05 pm

Gail

Hi Shattered. Another thing I do is look at a website called Wordox dicionary and it has lists of words by numbers of letters. I often find the word by looking at the lists until I see a word that would fit. Any port in a storm!

3:16 pm

ruth

could someone please give me the first 3 letters of the a7 been looking all night

3:21 pm

Gail

The first three letter are atl

3:33 pm

6:24 pm

DarleenMB

catalyse isn't a word? HUH?

7:27 pm

runningforhome

Darleen, I think the word you have in mind is 'catalyst'. :)

7:29 pm

4t8

misnomer's a word but nomer's not?

9:45 pm

DarleenMB

nope. Catalyse. Proper word 'n everything. In the dictionary even. Not the first time I've come across a legit word that the babble dictionary refused. shrug.

10:03 pm

Leo

Is it that "catalyse" is the British spelling and Babble uses a US dictionary? (catalyze)
