It's like molasses, only a bit more runny. You can make puds out of it, or pour it on puddings. It transforms Rice Pudding into something angelic!

I know Tamar in the Geneology of Christ, but
you've raised my pique with Cornwall, and England.
I should PM you about it. Charles is Duke, I know.
OK, I looked up Kernow, and see the Tamar River separates
Cornwall from Devon, and I read and learned some history.
Most interesting.

TAMAR

Posted By: Rhubarb Commando Re: Crossing borders - 04/18/12 04:01 PM
The River Tamar forms the South-Eastern border of the County of Cornwall. The Cornish people claim that Cornwall is a separate, Celtic country (named "Kernow" - flag, Black with White Cross) and should have autonomous rule. There is a Cornish Language, v. similar to the language of Brittany, the last native speaker of which died about ninety years ago (? could be more) but there are some attempts to revive it.
English people hold that the Tamar prevents wholesale invasion of England by the Cornish!

I take your word for it, that it is an actual word.
I cannot find it even in OneLook. Not that I mind at all,
because it was getting lonely on this site, Rhub and Tromb
seem to have disappeared and I feared you had too.

I presume this is some medical procedure? I am just curious
because it is a neat word. Now, what to do with it becomes
the problem.

Posted By: LukeJavan8 Re: That's not easy, Mr. Fox, Sir - 06/19/12 04:14 PM
HELLO, THERE! !


you must have some idea what the word means.

Posted By: Rhubarb Commando Re: That's not easy, Mr. Fox, Sir - 06/19/12 04:16 PM
Hi, Luke - I'm just guessing what it could mean, is all, based on a slight acquaintance with anatomy dating back to the secondary school!
Posted By: LukeJavan8 Re: That's not easy, Mr. Fox, Sir - 06/19/12 04:20 PM
And the 'doc' did say he was 'constructing' a word, hence
I guessed a medical procedure as well, based on the word
"iliac", which means something anatomical as well.
I know iliotomy is not in any dictionary I have.
I'm sure he will get back to us.
Moving on from 'iliotomy' is the problem: I've been
hacking away at it for a couple hours now.
Posted By: Rhubarb Commando Re: That's not easy, Mr. Fox, Sir - 06/19/12 04:27 PM
Me, too. Even changing two letters doesn't really help!
Posted By: LukeJavan8 Re: That's not easy, Mr. Fox, Sir - 06/19/12 04:59 PM
There are a number of two-word combinations that
work, actual thoughts. But we may be at an impasse,
not that it has not happened before.
ILIOTOMY

Um. Yes. Well, I did say I had constructed it!

The ilium is a bone, part of the pelvis. (The "ischium" is another part of the pelvis. It's pronounced "ISS-key-um." It has nothing at all to do with the present discussion except that it's right next door to the ilium. Neither one has anything to do with the Topless Towers or the face that launched a thousand ships.))

An "-otomy" is a hole in something. Like a craniotomy, made in the head to relieve excess pressure from the brain.

So an "iliotomy" would be a hole in the pelvic bone, which is exactly what sometimes was is made with a big sharp needle for the purpose of extracting a sample of bone marrow from the iliac crest, for diagnostic study.

Confusion can sometimes arise because there is also the ileum, which is the second portion of the small intestine, the first being the duodenum. This gives rise to "ileotomy" and "ileostomy," which are real words. (An "-ostomy" is a permanent opening in something, from "stoma," which means "mouth.")

Thus giving us to two possible continuations from here:

ILEOTOMY
and then
ILEOSTOMY

(I knew anatomy class would be useful for something eventually...)

Thank you for the explanation, wofa - I freely admit that I was thinking of the ilEum, which I knew to be part of the small intestine ( although I couldn't remeber which bit!) I had never come across the ilIum - level 8 biology wasn't very thorough!

I knew you and Rhuby were around, as I've seen you listed in the

Thanks too for the explanation Wofa. I guess our assumptions
it was anatomical were on the right track. Not too 'gore'-y
either.

On Mac, an acute accent can be achieved by holding down the option key and pressing the E, then the letter that gets the accent. The grave accent is achieved by holding the option key, pressing the grave accent/tilde key (these are US layout), then the letter that receives the accent. There are similar schemes for other accents that should be described by the help files on your operating system.
That's one of the tricks that I know is there, learned ten times, and forgot eleven. Cutting and pasting is crude but effective.

I had my fair share of the "beverage" years ago and today,
because of too many titanic clashes, don't imbibe in anything
stronger than tea. But my position on this site is far from
titanic. Just a humble ex-teacher who likes words, never getting
into any more 'clashes' with the mensa folk here.

haha well Luke...2 horses, 3 cats, numerous chickens, and we've just hatched some chicks so it's all very hectic at home...one of the cats has been very ill repeatedly over the last few months because he keeps eating far too much and then getting a sort of cat version of gastroenteritis we think...one of the horses has sweet itch, so he's allergic to fly bites and gets very itchy and sore, so he's in a brand new electric fence field with a clever Boett rug on to stop him getting bitten, but it needs sorting out everyday because he rolls and rips it and other infuriating things!...so it's all a bit time consuming in the mornings and evenings, although the chicks are very cute...little Appenzeller Spitzhaubens, Gold Spangled variety... Appenzeller Society crazy little things...but at the moment I am not at home, I am in Sweden, supposedly working, and some relatives are looking after them all, and getting paid in white, brown and green eggs for their trouble!

There's a children's book, name of "Lyle, Lyle, Crocodile." Charming but not really that memorable, except perhaps the name.

Lyle,Lyle,Crocodile : Toys & Games -- www.amazon.com
"Lyle is a crocodile who lives on East 88th Street with his family, Mr. and Mrs. Primm and Joshua. It all seems perfectly natural to the Primms and to their friends ..."

RETINUE

drop the U

You're ENTIREly correct, and you have the spirit as well as the letter of the game fully.

The reason the thread has been so quiet lately is that it was continued to "Anagrams VIII" under the (perhaps mistaken) impression that too-long threads are unwieldy and take too long to load, and so I made it a habit to restart it after every thousand entries or so. You'll find the current iteration here.

Edit: Oops - didn't see your latest post before writing mine. Not quite as bad as "simulposting," but almost. My bad.

Oh. And welcome, of course! I shouldn't be taking new voices for granted!

This page took me a while to figure out, sorry wofa, I'm
slow: senior moments. But I see now that I reach the
bottom, it's an old anagrams.

WELCOME endymion6 so glad to have new blood.
