Wordo Suggestions

Does anyone else think that you should be able to choose categories in wordo? As it is now, I think it's just linked up to a dictionary with every six letter word ever. It would be so much more fun if the scope of words was slightly smaller so I knew the direction to start thinking in.

Re: Wordo Suggestions

I kinda like how it is, makes you think and have to consider vowel placement and general common sense. But i do think some of the words are... iffy?  i dont know if thats on account of different spelling between countries?

Re: Wordo Suggestions

yes i have found some of the words are not really words from dict. but slang words that are used in england since this is where the games is from and it is sometimes hard to find the word as it is not really a word guys check some spelling out on your words

Re: Wordo Suggestions

You do now you have played the game and got them. Learning is a good thing it should not just be boring words that everyone knows the fact that there is a challenge and it gives you some words that are fun to try and get into conversations with your friends is part of the reason Wordo is a good game.

A small, round grain consisting of calcium carbonate, silica, or dolomite. Ooliths have concentric layers that form around a nucleus, such as a shell fragment, a sand grain, or a pellet of alga.

I had actually used that word before seeing it in the game!

There is another theory which states that this has already happened."

Re: Wordo Suggestions

I have to aggree that some of the words are questionable.  If it can't be found in a basic dictionary, then you're asking for the impossible when it comes to us guessing it.  I don't remember the words anymore, but I know I've had a couple that when I went to dictionary.com to look it up, even it didn't recognize the word (and dictionary.com uses multiple dictionaries).

I have no problem with learning new words, but can it at least be a real word?  Not that this is a common problem, only a couple of times did I get a word that wasn't really a word.

Re: Wordo Suggestions

I don't mind wordo giving me hard words - I love to learn! I'd just like it if it stated a category beforehand, such as "countries" or "chemicals" or "animals"... etc.
