Hmmm...that one sounds fishy...any opinions one way or t'other on the
acceptability of words like "tieful"?

tieful 2 (eh?)
qiviut 6 (aruba)
There...that wasn't so bad...aruba's got our rather furry word! I
was wondering what kind of words began with 'q' but did not have
a 'u' as the second letter. 'qiviut' was one (and relatively
easy to spot in the 'q' section of the dictionary once you ignore
all those 'qu's). Good job, aruba! Your turn.

Well, easy to find in the dictionary it wasn't - but then all I knew
was _i_iut. I am thinking of a word with 6 letters.

goddam ... I didn't even look at q. I'm getting too rigid. FLEX!

qiviut 0 (dang) A bold break with tradition ...
uneasy 0 (kentn)
goddam 0 (rcurl) (Didn't make my dictionary, but I've seen it in
print enough times)
BTW Kent, that was a good word. Wish I'd used it!

Why have you switched from "unease" to "uneasy", Kent? I agreed with your
original preception that "unease" has cachet that uneasy lacks. And,
goddam is in my dictionary, but under "goddamned". I used it once before,
but it wasn't picked up as a guess, but rather as an expression.

unease
At the time I was feeling 'uneasy' (adj) not 'unease' (n)... :)
