Great List! I am using it to help me to win the Spelling Bee. I was amazed when I found lorquette here (not on this page, on the previous one). I have googled it but have not found any definition of it. Can anybody help me?
Oh, isn’t that funny, now I can’t find a definition of “lorquette” either. I must have gotten the word from my rhyming dictionary, which doesn’t have definitions, but for unusual patterns I just took its word that the words are words. Time to get the really superduper Oxford dictionary, or ask someone who speaks French I guess
