  1. Not really specific to today's words, but why isn't spork in the dictionary?

    1. i'd guess that maybe it's a trademark? realtor isn't in the dictionary either, for that reason.

  2. A couple of weeks ago I was surprised to see realtor in TWL (in the FB Scrabble game TWL). The National Association of Realtors has all sorts of rules about using their "mark." WordWeb has two separate entries, one of which defined generically.

    You may be right about the trademark, but in the US it doesn't seem to be registered in the context of eating utensils. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spork
