Where did everyone go?
blot
The next two words I knew but wasn’t sure of the definitions so I looked them up:
neap (designating tides midway between spring tides that attain the least height)
sepal (one of the individual leaves or parts of the calyx of a flower)
This one I knew only from doing crossword puzzles:
plat (a plot of ground; a plan or map, as of land)
This one I got from an online dictionary by trying promising combinations of letters:
notal (the adjectival form of notum, which is a dorsal plate or sclerite of the thorax of an insect)
An easy word I can’t believe no one tried before:
note
More words I knew, but looked up to get an accurate definition:
sept (branch of a clan, in Scotland)
septa (plural of septum, which is a dividing wall, membrane, or the like, in a plant or animal structure)
A word I found by looking up likely combinations in the dictionary:
patine (to patinate, which is to coat with a patina)
One I found by trying a combination in the dictionary which didn’t work, but suggested this in the list of similar words:
poboy (variant of “poor boy” which is a hero sandwich, also known as a submarine sandwich, a grinder, or a hoagie, depending on where you live)
I haven’t been here in a while, so I missed this one. I hope Pauline hasn’t taken all the choices!
Wow! No one used goal!
Or pest, teal, tonal & goat
Still a few left!
