We usually use dictionary.com for confirmation of words and definitions, although I'm sure it's not much better than urbandictionary.com, and http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/qi didn't really make it like like a legitimate word, so we agreed on house rules that it's not allowed. Same with Za (even though it has a proper definition it's just one of those words we agreed on), etc, etc.


never use dictionary.com for scrabble. My brother his friend and I were playing scrabble using it and literally everything was a word there >_>

Your scrabble games so far have been a farce.
Qi and Khat (Qat) are definitely words with meanings.

e. You could also make a rule that you have to explain what it means if the word is a rare one.
In this case: Qi is the chinese concept of life force, Qat is a weak drug.
That's how I used to play with my friend back in the day.

Yes, but since most games of scrabble aren't played to completion, it's not that well-known a rule

This is why I can't play board games anymore lol. They used to be just for fun, now they are capable of causing great rage

We were considering doing that, but decided not to for the sake of some words you define not having a clear definition in dictionary.com, which we clearly need to get away from lol. I'm thinking it's a good idea now that we have...

I'm considering finding an online scrabble dictionary just so we can play the game with it and not have any arguments over the whether the words are real or not

Scrabble Dictionary

Something like this?

This, thanks .

the trick with scrabble to find out a field that you know more than your opponent, then bluff. For example, I am a chemistry major, i can put something down like dyzogen and say its a chemical which stimulates the creative center of the brain, since people dont know, they cant be sure to call you out on it. Fields that work well includes all the sciences, doctors, basically any specialty.

I've done that a couple times already ^.^

Yeah technically, but our house rule excludes that.
