Scrabble

I spent the afternoon playing Scrabble. When you really get into it, its incredible how many bazaar words there are out there. And Scrabble is not just a game of strategy. Its knowledge. You've gotta know the words or its so hard to move on the board. If you play Scrabble yourself check out a software called Zzyvvaa. I'm not sure if I'm spelling it right. Zzyvvaa is the last word in the dictionary and its basically a Scrabble program that can save you the hassle of flipping through a dictionary to find if a word exists. It's instant! So it's super convenient and a perrrfect tool to improve your vocabulary :)

Did you know that there are over 120 two letter words that can be used in scrabble - words like Zo, Hm,Ae,Qi,Ch,Xi,Xu,Ny,Ky etc

These are not abbreviations as you might imagine but they mean something. Like Zo means a himalayan animal (a goat I think):)

I have used Zzyva and it really does help :)
