casua

CASUAR

[poptartpsycho18]

I think the word you're going for is supposed to be part of a genus name for a bird, but isn't that Latin? Aren't we limited to English words?

[Sentinel XIV]

Well, I can't find anything that says the word is not English, or that it is strictly Latin. It's listed over at dictionary.com, so I would think that it is accepted as an English word.

[poptartpsycho18]

It's in there saying it's the genus of a bird...or a fish or other thigs The genus names are always Latin. Everywhere I looked it was in italics which is to indicate that it is Latin.

[Sentinel XIV]

There is the page over at dictionary.com. All it says is that it is a noun. Nothing about being a Latin derivative, which I'm sure it is, but isn't almost every word we use today?

EDIT: deleted link as to not show the word. Although, whoever continues doesn't have choice. I'm pretty sure there is only one outcome here.

[poptartpsycho18]

Alright, as long as animorperhv1 says it's okay then I'm cool with it. I didn't say the word . So that no one else would know what to spell.

CASUARI

[animorpherv1]

If Italian's use English, that counts.

[william18]

The word that you guys are looking for is the Italian name for the cassowary. This isn't english.

[william18]

And if it counts I beleive Poptart gets a letter since she spelled the plurel form of it.

[Sentinel XIV]

I can't find that 'casuari' is a word. And the word I knew this would lead to is an English word.

[animorpherv1]

I can't find that 'casuari' is a word. And the word I knew this would lead to is an English word.

[william18]

So what is it? Should we let this in or let it pass. Personally I don't think it should count since it's Italian.

[poptartpsycho18]

Well, william18, that was my whole argument! I was saying that it's not English and that it shouldn't count! So while I was waiting on animorpherv1 to get in the conversation I took my turn so that I wouldn't be in trouble for not taking my turn. You can see me arguing w/ Sentinel XIV about it. But the word he's spelling is actually not that word. I'll send the link for the word to animorpherv1.

[animorpherv1]

oh. my bad. I only look at the letters right then and there, since I don't even know half of these letters could even make words.

[animorpherv1]

yeah, I'm taking that letter off (sorry about that) william, you can continue on the current word. I'm going to be first out, I can tell it.

[Sentinel XIV]

I was confused, william. Apparently, you and I are thinking of different words. There can be an English word spelled from the current batch of letters. Let's see who end up with the letter.
