clues gibven previously are good but i will repeat. b8 think captian of fishfingers or to look down on something gives you a ...view of things. i8 is what the meek shall do, or what you do if your wealthy aunt passes away and leaves you stuff!!

8:45 am

supermac - b8 means the word starts with b and has 8 letters. the bigger numbers give the points. if you look at the babble rules it tells you how the points system work. i8 means starts with letter i and has 8 letters - good luck

I'd love to track down which version of ENABLE Babble is using. Closest I've found is a WORD.LST file from ENABLE2K (173528 words). 'demist' doesn't appear in that list, but does in the most recent ABLE supplement.

Dr God tells me an update will be in the works soon.

I've never heard of the Enable dictionary. Is it in English? I can't believe the disallowed words. To be honest there are one or two that have been accepted that I expected to be refused. My first ever attempt - enjoying it.

cagey - e4/6 is a middle eastern prince and then its plural. another e4/6 is to send out something like a ray of light and then its plural
e4/7 is what you see with and there are a few variants of it too. hope these help

So there's an St5 that has to do with a spoon? The St4/4 is obvious, but I can't see any way of lengthening it. Am I blind?
6:32 pm

The 3rd St6 is an 18-pointer meaning to vex or annoy, present tense of an S5/10.
6:34 pm

Does anyone have a clue to the 2nd T7?? I've got the Tr7/36 meaning to cut into thirds (I assume), but I can't find the other for the life of me.

anyone who can do these without a dictionary is dangerous. I can handle the olde english, the latin and the french. But words like that are by guess and by golly......

Okay, found another R5/10. There's no definition I can find anywhere (though there are a couple of Dutch ships bearing this name, but it is an anagram of a t5/10 in this grid.

This leaves me now with:

re5/10
re5/18
re5/12
re5/18
re5/14
ri5/16
ri5/14

I'm pretty sure there's one more r5. Any hints in the right direction greatly appreciated!

Oh. Is that the one you meant, Brandyjack?
9:36 pm

can't find a def for re5/10, but it appears to be simultaneously a german name (people and sports clubs bear it) and it appers in an olde english william burns poem/ode to a horse.
9:36 pm

Is there anyone out there who's completed the Rs and Ts? If so, can you tell me how many 4-letter words starting with each there are? I'm uttering many 4-letter words start more sibilantly in my quest for my last 4.
9:36 pm
brandyjack

doogle, thats the one and there are only 7 r5's.
9:39 pm
brandyjack

doogle 7 r4's, minimum 13 t4's, possibly a 14th. my stat gen only showed 32 T's so there are two i don't know about. one of which appears to be a T7, so i don't know what the missing T is.
9:42 pm
Doogle

Huh. Well, I've already got 10 r4s and believe there to be an 11th, and yes, 13 t4s.
9:42 pm
brandyjack

doogle, have you got 2 T7's? my stat gen agrees with the one posted that there are a total of 7, seven letter words, but mine says only one T7. Which is the angle divided by 3 thingy.
9:42 pm

there's an re5 that means 'to balk', it's spelled like the re4 'eurasion sandpiper' with an extra letter
9:43 pm

sorry, must have gotten confuzzed there. 11 R4's total, not 7.

10:16 pm

Oh, btw - it's doogLe w/ an L please. :|

No prob, sfneil.

The way I track letter #s is just by crossing them off of a printout of the stats. That's how I know that T5 is my nemesis. So, I've got:

ti5/12

tr5/12
tr5/10
tr5/14

sfneil - congrats! So, it's a ty5?

Doogle, it is indeed! it's a ty5/16, as you suspected all along. No 'c', though. It's the title of a Melville novel without the 'p'.

Oh and with an extra letter at the end.

Dude you have to let me know when you get it. You've just got to get it! I'll be checking!

You were so much help to me! Thanks!

Fish caught! Nasty little bugger! If I ever get a chance to eat one of these suckers I'm gonna go for it!

Thanks, sfneil! See you tomorrow.

syncopate

thanks sfneil - any help with the si4 that's not what you call a king and the si5 that's not its past tense?

Doogle

syncopate - Si4/7 is a trig function, and the Si5 is informally used for emphasis after 'yes' or 'no'.

syncopate, hard one to give a clue for without actually spelling it out... the definition is a "hyperbolic function of an angle".

It sounds like what priests don't like it when you do, with a sneaky silent letter on the end.

Hope that helps... I'm outta here now, having spent way too much time trying to find a fish!

When the puzzle is done, and you review the previous day's stats, where do you find the list of all words?

Go to archives to choose which days puzzle you want, then click on a players name. You will get their list for that puzzle.

but how will I find all the words I missed? By clicking on someone's name who got them all, maybe?

Nicole, that's right. I've only been here a few days (and lord knows how much of my life I'll spend here!), but every day I've been here there have been people who have completely solved the puzzle. If you click on their names in the results, you'll get the full list of words.
