Words to add to the dictionary

[dannyb]

Edda is not allowed in WordTwist?

admin Stephen, I was disappointed that brachydactylisms and brachydactylism were not accepted on this board as I thought it was a good find. They are not in lexic.us but brachydactyly is. Would you please add them and the words in the quote below to the WordTwist dictionary?

Stephen, I played this board and found that maternalisation was not accepted. However, it is in lexic.us.

Also, I played hyperdiminutivized for the first time today. But hyperdiminutivize was not accepted. Neither is in lexic.us.

BIRRIA should probably be in the dictionary, considering how many food words are already in there.

[Naboka]

This cracked me up.

Maybe a subcategory of words to add to the dictionary might be: definitions to add to words in the dictionary.

Got dealation/s which is when insects like ants lose their wings after being naughty. Just out of curiosity, clicked on the word in the readout to see what Lexic had to say.

"absolutely nothing!" (rendered in my best Edwin Starr impersonation)

but heh, what the heck, 34 points. I'll take it.

On a plus, Lexic came through with alation, which is the state of being winged. It comes up now and then, so...

But none of these were the best/longest of that board or I would have kept my yap shut.

(And to think I almost didn't play this game because I needed to do some other things.)

INTERGENERATIONAL was not accepted. It's not in lexic but is in Merriam-Webster

Edited to fix my poor typing: the word should be INTRAGENERATIONAL

[BoggleOtaku]

I can't find it. Wow, that looks a lot more complex than 5x5! Do you mean INTRAGENERATIONAL?

Yes, I did mean INTRA not INTER. Good catch. I know I defintely typed it correctly in the game at least 3 times just to make sure, lol.

I just found RESCRUTINISATION (30 pts.)
However, SCRUTINISATION was not counted.
I assume that this word should exist?

[DrPlacebo]

I just scored points for BENZOSULFIMIDE but not the plural BENZOSULFIMIDES.

[ILIKEBIGWORDS...]

This new hex puzzle accepts "metabolizations," but not "catabolizations." (Also spelled "catabolisations," but the "z" seems to be an acceptable variation.

I tried to add the word badminton and it would not take it. I have trouble spelling longer words but I knew I had this right.

"SEALIONS" was accepted in this game, yet "SEALION" was not.
Whether it counts as a verb or as a noun, if it works with the S, it should work without, no?

Strangely enough, I just got those in a 5x5. You're right. SEALION doesn't work there either.

[admin]

SEALION missing is definitely an oversight - BADMINTON though is 100% listed as a word in that exact puzzle, so that might have just been a stray typo that prevented it from being accepted.

Thanks everyone for still posting these. I'm hoping to do a comprehensive dictionary review later this year so keep the missing words coming.
