Hi Word Finders and welcome to the 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 grid is as follows:
C
I D
A H S
Y L
R
This week`s target is 63 words using only the letters in the grid - note: target includes plurals.
Each word must contain four letters or more and must include the red letter H.
No proper names are allowed.
Plurals are allowed.
Each letter in the grid can only be used once in each word [so, for example, HILL 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.
There is one nine-letter word using all the letters in the grid.
Regular updates will be given of the words found and the number of words still to be found.
Last week the players not only found all the target words but a further 8 words not in the list from the source used in compiling the game.
Can you bust this week`s diamond and also find additional words?
Good luck everyone

update to follow
Actually @Mi-Amigo SLICH (in the urban dictionary) is also a profanity. It's a slang word, combining two words. Derogatory term for a woman. I leave it to your imagination, neither word would get through the forum filter.
thanks for the additional info @Cleoriff
btw - as @pgn posted two answers consecutively, you may also post two answers

SHILY is not in the list but Merriam-Webster dictionary gives it as less common alternative to shyly, so is allowed...

Oh, and whilst I am here: HILAR -ious
Two one after the other? You interjected to say I was correct, I thought that counted as 'not in succession'
