Title: Infight/infighter
Post by: Morbius on March 02, 2022, 07:25:55 PM

From the recent FREIGHTING game:  Infight - rare; Infighter - common.  Seems anomalous to me.  Infighter should be rare in my view.  It was the least played common word in that puzzle, not surprisingly.

I certainly didn't have either of those so I would vote for rare FWIW...

Far be it from me to make any controversial suggestions however...  :-R :-R :-R  :-P :-P :-P

I imagine both infight and infighter are back-formations from infighting. I agree they both should be rare. Infighting is common, and so is the word.
