I play scrabble on FB and some of the words that pop up on my tray are sorta funny. :)

A subliminal message, Nirvana?:D
Here's a geek version of the game. |
Proper nouns! Where's the Rulebook? LOL!

I thought you were going to be listing those words that involve X or Q without a U.
I once blundered across a Scrabble championship on some cable channel. The tension was palpable. The players were down to letters like X, Q, and Z and they were STILL PLAYING. Also, the two guys didn't look like stereotypical word-geeks. They looked like redneck truckers. It was a bit strange for me. I have a large vocabulary, but seem to attract unusable letters when playing Scrabble, therefore I am not very good at it. We keep an emergency Scrabble Board in the office just in case we have a really long lull at work and want to interact rather than just stare at the computer screen. I have travel versions of Rummikub and Triominoes in the car for similar emergencies. |
I have started playing Wordwise on my Android phone & I'm enjoying it. You can really get some weird combinations where you try to get extra points by lining up next to an existing word instead of at right angles.

Alright, so usually, I'm the one who loses (fairly badly), so when I am winning, I feel it is my 100% right to do this. :D again.

Didn't know DUH was in the dictionary! ennage (ˈɛnɪdʒ), (n): printing the total number of ens in a piece of matter to be set in type cur·tal 1. (adj) Archaic . wearing a short frock: a curtal friar. 2. (adj) Obsolete . brief; curtailed. 3. (n) a 16th-century bassoon. 4. (n) Obsolete . an animal with a docked tail. |
I usually think I have a pretty good vocabulary, but more than half of the words in that final game were beyond me...
I seem to remember phone numbers easily and hate Scrabble. |
Same with me, usually good at vocabulary (passive anyway), but didn't know half of them.

Whattaya mean, "no no no?" I'd take "suqs" -- middle eastern bazaars, more than one of them. But then I do have a vocabulary.
All one needs is an exposure to a large enough dictionary. Oh, and "cwm." Englished sometimes into "coombe." One of English's few borrowings from Welsh. Borrowings from Scots Gaelic are more numerous -- slogan, claymore, galore. |

Yes, Zen does. Mark of a man with an education.
Monst, you have but little taste and less discernment -- and you're determined to tell the world as much. Or is it simply your ideology reliably cockblocks your intellect? Tsk tsk. Mine does not. Prove your contention or withdraw. |
