[Game] Word Hunt Diamond - Game 7

[Mi-Amigo]

Hi Word Hunters and welcome to the sixth 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:

                                                                          L

                                                                      H      R

                                                                  N      I       C      

                                                                      A      B

                                                                          O

This week`s target is 82 words using only the letters in the diamond.

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

No proper names are allowed.

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

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

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 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. I look forward to welcoming new members and those who have not played before who join in with previous and regular players -

Last week, nine players, between them, found all 73 words in the list in the source used for the game; and, in addition, four of them, between them, also found extra words not in the list.

This week`s Word Hunt Diamond is a little trickier - with a target of 82 words, including almost the same number of four-letter and five-letter words [some of which are very obscure] and one nine-letter word. 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

@gmarkj 

LAIN is correct and in the list

@Cleoriff 

CABIN is correct and in the list

@EmilieT 

NOIR is not in the list. Now this has been a challenge. Foreign words [e.g. NOIR is French for black] would not be allowed - but NOIR is in Merriam Webster dictionary = in crime fiction or film noir comedy = so is allowed as a word not in the list. Thanks - that certainly gave me something to research and learn

LAICH is not in the list but is in Merriam Webster dictionary = Scottish variant of low, so is allowed as a word not in the list. A brilliant find.

@Bambino Thanks for joining in
