is it really legal to use a hebrew letter? i would challenge that.

Kristin said...

i might have to agree. after looking at some of the other words they say count i am skeptical of wether or not they are correct. example ono: the wife of famous the famous beetle.
i would never count that if i was playing boggle!!! so...who knows. words are complicated things.
