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:
What could come between SKY and SKYWAY? SKYSCAPE? SKYFALL? SKYMALL? I sat here, looking out the window, searching the horizon . . . and never thought of SKYLINE.
67 words, to be precise. 75 SKY words in all--several of which are legitimate, separate words.... Apologies for the quotes, which were generated by the program I used. "SKY", "SKYBOARD", "SKYBOARDS", "SKYBORNE", "SKYBOX", "SKYBOXES", "SKYBRIDGE", "SKYBRIDGES", "SKYCAP", "SKYCAPS", "SKYDIVE", "SKYDIVED", "SKYDIVER", "SKYDIVERS", "SKYDIVES", "SKYDIVING", "SKYDIVINGS", "SKYDOVE", "SKYED", "SKYEY", "SKYHOOK", "SKYHOOKS", "SKYING", "SKYJACK", "SKYJACKED", "SKYJACKER", "SKYJACKERS", "SKYJACKING", "SKYJACKINGS", "SKYJACKS", "SKYLARK", "SKYLARKED", "SKYLARKER", "SKYLARKERS", "SKYLARKING", "SKYLARKS", "SKYLIGHT", "SKYLIGHTED", "SKYLIGHTS", "SKYLIKE", "SKYLINE", "SKYLINES", "SKYLIT", "SKYMAN", "SKYMEN", "SKYPHOI", "SKYPHOS", "SKYROCKET", "SKYROCKETED", "SKYROCKETING", "SKYROCKETS", "SKYSAIL", "SKYSAILS", "SKYSCRAPER", "SKYSCRAPERS", "SKYSURF", "SKYSURFED", "SKYSURFER", "SKYSURFERS", "SKYSURFING", "SKYSURFS", "SKYWALK", "SKYWALKS", "SKYWARD", "SKYWARDS", "SKYWAY", "SKYWAYS", "SKYWRITE", "SKYWRITER", "SKYWRITERS", "SKYWRITES", "SKYWRITING", "SKYWRITINGS", "SKYWRITTEN", "SKYWROTE" Note that there are 7 words starting with SKYLI. I never would have guessed SKYLIKE, which would need a blank in a Scrabble game.
The 31 words surrounding joon's word range from LISTENED to LITER. There are 29 words starting with the same 4 letters as joon's word. 4 words starting with the same 5.

It's words like "skyphoi" that keep me coming back. Not that I actually learn them, but it's fun to look them up.
