Welcome to the Guess My Word blog. This is a place to discuss the words of the day chosen by Joon and Mike. This paragraph is here mostly as spoiler space. Here are today's words:
I can't account for it, but it is in the Scrabble Tournament Word List. Maybe a justification is that the province name is Newfoundland and Labrador, and "labrador" is the name of a geographic region. I haven't seen this spelled out that way. I can't imagine that this has been entirely overlooked by the tournament scrabble players.
Hmmm. I would have called Mike's word a proper noun. It is ALWAYS capitalized--for the dog, the current, the island.
ReplyDeleteTook forever to get the anther to Joon's.

ReplyDeletei don't always see it capitalized. perhaps i have seen a few too cutesy many crossword clues where "lab" (lowercase) is used to mean a pet dog.
ReplyDeleteI guessed labradoodle, but it said it wasn't in the dictionary. I also thought labrador was capitalized for some reason. (Merri H)
