Hi Word Hunters.

                             Welcome to the 17th 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:

 

                                                                           N

                                                                       E      A

                                                                   T      K      G

                                                                       C      R

                                                                            I

 

 

This week`s target is 69 words - using only the letters in the diamond - and includes one 9-letter word to find. 

 

Each word must contain four letters or more and must include the red letter K.

No proper names are allowed.

Each letter in the grid can only be used once in each word [for example, KNEE wouldn`t be allowed].

Of course, words do not have to start with the red letter K

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.

 

A warm welcome to all members, and those who have not played before, for joining in the game with the regular players including

  @Cleoriff ; @pgn ; @gmarkj ; @Bambino ; @jonsie  ;@JAZZ-trad ; @Bob_Mcg ;  @Marjo ; @TallTrees ; @OldFart -

who, previously, have, between them, not only found all the words in the list in the source used for the game, but have 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

Mexican Wave CONGRATULATIONS @jonsie Mexican Wave

 

KIER is correct and in the list - and is the last word in the list... it is a metal container or vat for boiling fibre or yarn.

 

That completes this week`s WORD HUNT DIAMOND

 

Thanks to @Cleoriff ; @jonsie ; @gmarkj ; @Anonymous ; @Bambino ; @pgn for playing. Between you, you not only found all 69 words in the list [in the source used for the game] but also found 29 words not in the list. Special thanks to @Cleoriff and @jonsie for their persistence in finding answers to the end.

 

I hope everyone enjoyed the game and you - and hopefully others - will join in playing the next Word Hunt Diamond game, which will be posted on Tuesday next week.
