Double double

As a Boggle-playing computer geek, I just couldn't pass up an opportunity to share some of the fun words that are lurking in SOWPODS. This contribution is a comprehensive list of all words length 8 or less that have two different double vowels (like "aalii"). There are only 27 of them. There are another 60 or so that have the same vowel doubled (like "beebee"). Without further ado:

Five letters: aalii, cooee
Six letters: aaliis, bootee, cooeed, cooees, doolee, soogee
Seven letter: bootees, doolees, soogeed, soogees, whoopee
Eight letters: beefwood, beetroot, boortree, braaiing, cooeeing, feelgood, freeboot, moonseed, moonshee, peekaboo, peekapoo, rooftree, whoopees, woodfree

Enjoy!

SOWPODS Three Letter Words

A 'cwm' (on Mt Everest, in fact)


Perhaps the easiest way to excel in the game of Boggle is to take the time to learn all of three letter words in SOWPODS. This may sound daunting, but it really doesn't need to take too long. One of the best ways to go about it is to learn the various three letter word patterns that exist. To help you towards this end I have compiled a complete list. Have fun!

From The Country That Gave You 'Crwth'...

Words are deeply fascinating, and some more than most. One such word is ‘cwtch’. If ‘cwtch’ looks a little strange to you then, fear not, this is not without good reason. For ‘cwtch’ is not a word that originated on English soil. In fact, it is a Welsh word that has only recently been adopted into English dictionaries, having been embraced by many English speakers over the last century. 'Embraced' is the appropriate word, for a ‘cwtch’ is - among other things - a hug! To give someone a cwtch is to give them a cuddle, or something that might be more accurately translated as a ‘small safe place’.

It seems somewhat appropriate that a word of such a beautiful appearance (how many other 5 letter words can you think of without a vowel or Y?) should be the bearer of such a wonderful meaning!

To find out more about this word, you can listen to this recording, or read this BBC news report. 'Cwtched', 'cwtches' and 'cwtching' are all words (in SOWPODS) too. If you have ever played any or all of these words in Scrabble or Boggle, please share your experience with us in the comments below!

Needed to Share This With You All!

I just scored 646 points in a game of Scrabulous. Yes, I can hardly believe it either! The game seemed pretty uneventful - save for a high scoring non-bingo with ZAIRE for 99 points - until my last 15 tiles. Placing those 15 tiles added 237 points to my score, including my highest ever bingo (beating GRIZZLY for 139 points in regular offline Scrabble) and first triple-triple with BUSGIRLS for 149 points. Having suffered the humiliating fate of having over 30 points shaved from my Prolific rating, this proved ample balm for the wound and helped to finally knock my Scrabulous ranking over 2100 for the first time (and just in time for Linda to tear it down again!).
