Skilpadde, do you mind if we skip "X", "Y", and "Z", like we do on all the "A to Z" threads, cuz they're a pain?

Not at all. Anyone posting after W, X, or Y can go straight to A if they wish.

I think whoever happens to post after 'W', 'X' or 'Y' can post 'A' if it (referring to the person posting) cannot come up with a word starting with the next letter. I think I can think of many words starting with 'Y' and 'Z' actually. 'X' is limited to certain languages. But I guess it's up to the creator of the thread.

Which letters are hard will depend on the languages one knows. For me, only knowing Scandinavian and English (the latter not being used here), and very little German, c, q, w, x, y and z are all hard.
But I agree, we will just skip those 3 letters if we can't come up with anything.

Oh, GOOD----yeah, cuz the only other language I know, is Cherokee----and, there's alot of letters missing in IT, as well!! I know a handful of words in other languages----but, mostly, they're not nouns ("things").

Hmm... come to think of it, I guess we don't have to stick to nouns... Colors and some verbs and adjectives might work with pictures, and there's always the possibility of just translating it... Despite the title of this game, I'm not stuck on the idea of only nouns being allowed here...
