Rules wrote:Types of words which cannot be used are abbreviations, prefixes and suffixes. Words that require a hyphen or an apostrophe cannot be played. Words that are spelled with a capital letter cannot be used.

Generally speaking in an English-language game of Scrabble, foreign words cannot be placed on the Scrabble board. If those words appear in a standard English dictionary, then the word is allowable. This is because the word is spoken often enough by native English-speakers that it has become a part of the English language.

I contest that word.

Skittles!, your word has been challenged. DO you want to change it or stick with it? If you stick with it, I'll check my dictionary to see if it's in there in some capacity w/o an apostrophe. If it's not, you lose your turn. If it is in there, the challenger loses their turn.

Okay, but you understand that the letter switching is your turn right? PM me the letters you want to trade in and I'll send you new ones.

EDIT: Skittles!' letters switched. drake_259's turn.

Won't work. "AI" isn't a word, it's an acronym. So the word "aim" won't be able to be placed since it'll be making "AI" and that's not an actual word. Other definitions found indicate it to describe a sloth but that word is Portuguese, not English.

I dunno... It's in the scrabble dictionary. I realize that the standard is your dictionary, and that you have final say, but I thought that it was worth mentioning that Scrabble recognizes it as a legal word.

If everyone is fine w/ it I'll place it.

Skittles! · Post by **Skittles!** » Tue Nov 11, 2008 1:46 am

I don't want to say it's fine because it'll get them big points, but if it's in Scrabble's dictionary, then it's got to be allowed I think.
