7. August 2006, 14:36:19 Subject: New game Hello everyone: Is there any chance that the site could have a Scrabble type game? If it did then maybe there is a way to set it up where the game shows in whatever language a player selects. That way we could play anyone who is a different language then we are. Thank you for taking the time to read and reply to this post. 7. August 2006, 14:52:51 Subject: Re: New game  Amandakmg365: Of course there is a chance.  7. August 2006, 17:20:51 Subject: Re: New game Amandakmg365: Different languages would be practically impossible since the words have to be the same on both boards to continue the game. 7. August 2006, 18:00:34 Subject: Re: New game gambler104: yeah, um, that didn't make a lot of sense. Not to mention the letters are different in each language (even if they are the same, the frequency should be different). Perhaps a multi-language version is possible where either language could be used and the letter frequencies were somehow averaged between them? :) 7.

August 2006, 22:39:21 Subject: Re: New game grenv: That was more or less what I was trying to say, but I said it very poorly. The letters don't match up so you couldn't do different languages in the same game. 7. August 2006, 23:20:29 Subject: Re: New game gambler104: lol, actually i was referring to the original request, not your explanation :) Some languages could coexist, but it would be kind of klunky. 7. August 2006, 23:22:45 Subject: Re: New game grenv: Ok. I think it could be done if there was a constant translation of letters between two languages. If a t in German was always a d in English and every other letter had some corresponding letter, it would work. But I don't think that is the case in any two languages. 7. August 2006, 23:24:21 Subject: Re: New game gambler104: Well Spanish and English for instance. In the case where a letter exists in one and not the other that's ok, just limits the words it can be used in to that language (e.g. "w" wouldn't appear in a Spanish word. 7.

It is just not mathematically posible. Howevery you could have an accepted international dictionary that includes words from every language that uses the english alphabet. accents can be removed to allow languages like french fit. 7. August 2006, 23:34:16 Subject: Re: New game mctrivia: not sure what mathematics has to do with it, but I disagree with the conclusion. 7. August 2006, 23:52:37 Subject: Re: New game  mctrivia: I take it you mean "accepted"? 8. August 2006, 01:26:24 Subject: Re: New game pgt: yes sorry spelling was never my thing. 8. August 2006, 02:35:34 Subject: Re: New game Modified by pgt (8. August 2006, 02:36:22) mctrivia: The previous spelling was fine. It was the meaning  However I think I'll stick to scrabble with a real English language dictionary and not one of those strange dictionaries which allow all sorts of strange words which nobody ever actually knows the meaning of, let alone ever uses in conversation.</i> |
