Feel free to reply to any comment by clicking the "Reply" button.This group sure is dead ain't it! I believe you intended this post for the "word" group which I joined at least 6 months ago but never participated in. I had a great word which I learned long ago, but when I looked it up to refresh my memory, the particulars of its definition were so complex that I never got around to sorting out my confusion, lol.

I’m astounded that it ended up in that group...I checked and it also appeared in the correct group...Uncommon Words...on that date too! Some sort of a weird glitch it appears!
@Marionville Something similar happened to me recently, and I think it may have had to do with hitting the back button.
