Foreign words bonanza!

2012 November 20

So I’ve been terribly sick the last week, but it has enabled me to spend more than my usual amount of mind-numbing time searching for stuck pets manually.

The result? So far I’ve added several hundred Spanish real words, am working my way through a ton of German RWs, and will follow that up with Italian real words! Already planning the languages I will search after that!

Before you ask, no I’m not taking requests for languages, I can only work through languages with the roman alphabet (so no, I can’t check Japanese, Chinese, Russian, etc), and can only search for ones whose dictionaries I own, plus there’s only so many hours in a day. I will reassure you though, that many more languages are planned for some point, and that I’m always hunting down new dictionaries!

For those who are wonder for pets that are tagged RW=real word (in any language, not just English! I’ll leave it up to your googlefu to discern which language the word is!) Only pets that are updated again get the tag added, so when I’m adding brand new RWs, they won’t be tagged as such :)

    I’ll help on Dutch RW’s! If I found a few I’ll submit the form.

    I’ll try to look for Russian and other Slavic RWs when I have some free time!
