Word Hunt Diamond is back - Game 35

[Mi-Amigo]

Welcome to the Word Hunt Diamond - Game 35

Apologies for the absence last week.

The game is open to all members.

Each week, a grid of nine letters in a diamond will be posted.

The aim of the game is to find the target number of words [as in the source used for the game] using only the letters in the grid.

This week`s "diamond" is as follows:

                                                                               D

                                                                          E         F

                                                                      L        N       O

                                                                          R         U

                                                                               W

This week`s target is 68 words - using only the letters in the diamond - including 9-letter word 

The rules:

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

No proper names are allowed.

Scottish words and American spellings are allowed.

Each letter in the grid can only be used once in each word [for example, NEED is not allowed].

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

Only one word per post.

Please wait until someone else has posted before posting again.

I will endeavour to give regular updates on each page [so as to avoid scrolling back] of the words found and the number of words still to be found.

The Word Hunt Diamond game is open to all members.

I hope the Diamond Dogs of Words [thanks @pgn for the term] - those who have played in previous

Word Hunt Diamond games - including

  @Cleoriff   @pgn   @BobM   @Bambino   @gmarkj   @MI5   @madasaf1sh   @TallTrees 

  @jonsie   @Anonymous   @LukasB   @Marjo   

and any member who has not played before, or any new member will join in and play today`s WHD.

Can you, between you, not only find the 68 words in the list [in the source used for this game], but, 

as in previous games, also find additional words not in the list ?

Good luck everyone and have fun...

Congrats to @Cleoriff  

You have no need to apologise @Mi-Amigo - you do a very difficult job keeping things up to date.

Good game and well done all  

[Mi-Amigo]

@Cleoriff 

Thank you.

I`m pleased you enjoyed the game and well done on getting both the 9-letter words and the last word.

@Bambino 

DERN is not in the list but in dictionaries so allowed as word not in the list, which brings the total of words not in the list found this time to 31 words.

@BobM 

Thank you for your kind words and for understanding.

I`m pleased you enjoyed the game.

Well done, @Cleoriff!

Thanks for the good fun @Mi-Amigo, and to all the chippers-in, makes it hectic but keeps the mind going.

Thank you @pgn 

Pleased you found the game fun - because that`s what it`s meant to be

You are right, it was a bit hectic this time. In fact, it was probably one of the WHD games which has been solved the quickest.

Good few new words - well some I`d not heard before - were thrown up this time.

[Cleoriff]

Based on when I clear off for my siesta @Mi-Amigo, I think this one was finished faster than any others this time.

Thanks all. As said, t'was a good game.
