Hi Word Hunters and welcome to the 12th Word Hunt Diamond.
The game is open to all members.
Each week, a grid of nine letters in a diamond will be posted with a target number of words to find using only the letters in the grid.
This week`s "diamond" is as follows:
M
E I
G H R
N T
A
This week`s target is once again 78 words using only the letters in the diamond.
Note: this week`s Word Hunt Diamond includes one 9-letter word and two 8-letter words to find.
Each word must contain four letters or more and must include the red letter H.
No proper names are allowed.
Each letter in the grid can only be used once in each word [for example, THEME wouldn`t be allowed].
Of course, words do not have to start with the red letter H
Only one word per post.
Please wait until someone else has posted before posting again.
Regular updates will be given on each page [so as to avoid scrolling back] of the words found and the number of words still to be found.
This game is open to all members. New members, and those who have not played before, are welcome to join in with previous and regular players -
@Cleoriff ; @gmarkj ; @Bob_Mcg ; @EmilieT ; @jonsie ; @Bambino ; @Marjo ; @WispaRed7 ; @pgn
Last week, the players, between them, not only found all the words in the list in the source used for the game, but also found words not in the list.
Can you, the members, crack this week`s Word Hunt Diamond; and also find additional words which are not in the list?
Good luck everyone

HARMIN is not in the list ut is in dictionaries as an urban word for person who loves food more than themselves so is allowed as a word not in the list

OK, try MEATH .. (Place?)
Ahhh! On list too

This time, ... AIRTH ... (Earth, place?)

AIRTH is correct and in the list...
and that completes the game.
Earlier, there was quite a bit of banter about Scottish words being found earlier which were not in the list. What is slightly amusing is that this word - which is in the list - is Scottish and defined in dictionaries as the point on a compass.
Thank you @Cleoriff , @gmarkj , @EmilieT , @Anonymous , @pgn , @Bambino , @BobM for playing and who, between them, found all 78 words in the list in the source which I use for the game. Mention must also be made of @Cleoriff , @gmarkj , @pgn , @Bambino , @BobM who, between them, found 29 words not in the list.
Well done, all of you. I hope you all enjoyed the game - even if was tougher and took longer than previous games.

Sorry for my absence..
When I found out a young lady was missing me ( @Cleoriff ) I thought, ... long time since that happened so,
Try this, ... MEATH
Not so young @BobM ...though I knew we missed you on this one
Well done one and all. I come back and it's finished. (with two medical words I missed totally) Good game @Mi-Amigo Thanks for compiling it...
