You know, there are only so many words you can make with 4 letters... Around 456,976...But that's including words like "qxkz".

Just saying, Scrabble is supposed to be a vocabulary game. How many people's vocabularies are composed only of four-letter words?

Hi there!

PLEASE NOTE:

In fairness, not everyone has access to my current verification source/s so I have changed to http://www.dictionary.reference.com (backed up by Chambers Words for Crosswords and Wordgames) and have updated the rules accordingly



Thanks

Hi there!

Just updated the rules to include

L) ABBREVIATIONS [as distinct from acronyms] accepted ...... but only if it is so widely used that it has in essence become a term in its own right, such as exam (examination), auto (automobile). Do not use any that viewers will not immediately recognise.
