mattygroves

If we can have do7 and ro7, we should have that zo7 as well, but alas, it's not a word according to enable. Many cats, dogs and small children would disagree

12:45 am

Shellbell_o-well

Anyone who's ever had cats or house rabbits knows zo4+ies is a word...

12:46 am

worzel

Would love to know why es5 is in the grid when it doesn't exist or have definition in the dictionary

6:18 am

saanichcat

hi worzel, it is usually spelled esch** , dead skin around wounds etc. And this is an eccentric word list, no way can it be called a dictionary!

6:32 am

rururocks

Thanks for the desquamation of the word saan

6:37 am

saanichcat

6:42 am

sukee

Cooling off by watching Olympic swimming :)

6:52 am

MollyL

I think Worzel meant no definition in the dictionary that gives meanings via the ?. It is not in that one but a Google search for es5 definition will give a definition.

8:30 am

hurshy

11:25 am

mattygroves

I also loved, loved, loved Pete Buttigieg's absolute take down of Fox News' Shannon Bream - it was truly a masterclass in how to speak to hostile interviewers on a hostile network
