BzznBea

Sometimes lickety has an extra word.
1:13 pm
Gillie

"putdown" - a later version of the Enable word list has some words that don't get used in Babble (though a small number have been added in, I think, like "spam")
1:14 pm
Gillie

Lickety has to edit his list to match the one used by Babble on an ad-hoc basis, I think

2:38 pm
hokie carla

2:38 pm
hokie carla

2:39 pm
penquis

is the 8 a normal word?
2:39 pm

2:41 pm
hokie carla

yes, I think lickety uses a newer version of enable
2:41 pm
hokie carla

so it happens a bit
2:41 pm
penquis

perhaps...
2:41 pm
penquis

is the 8 a normal word?
2:42 pm
hokie carla

2:45 pm
hokie carla

I have F H R UU C7 DDD SSSS left
2:46 pm
MollyL

Not really odd
2:46 pm
hokie carla

does it start with two?
2:46 pm
MollyL

No
2:46 pm
penquis

ah...got it...would think that is a proper noun....
2:47 pm
penquis

compound word...
2:47 pm
hokie carla

does it start with sand thing?
2:47 pm
penquis

no...
2:47 pm
penquis

it's a little twisty...
2:47 pm
penquis

ty, molly....
2:50 pm
hokie carla

had to look it up. agree, you would think proper noun. also didn't not have the root, which probably would have helped and is a common noun.
2:54 pm
MollyL

It is also an adverb, as in go du5 to dinner
2:55 pm
penquis

yes, that is what i thought.....
2:58 pm
penquis
