Gooday Alan , hope you had a good Christmas. ( is there even such a thing as a bad Christmas ? )
I was going to suggest that moue ( 10 letter game - 25th Dec. ) be considered for a downgrade however I did remember to do a search which led me to your " hardest common words ' list from 2007.
What a wonderful idea that was to compile such a helpful list , I found it very interesting that for me , approx. 50% of those words were familiar to me & the other half I would have no chance of finding.
Hopefully, after viewing that list , I will now have a better chance of finding a few more of those ' rare " common words.
As that list was compiled in 2007 , is there any chance that we could get an updated one for 2016/17?
