I have a report that a certain word has shown up in the new Every Word Kindle app. It’s in the picutre. I’m looking at it right now and I’m still not sure I beleive it. I don’t see a reason why Erik would lie, though:
I was playing last night, and had nearly completed a board. The main word was GASPING, and I was missing one 6-letter word. Not wanting to leave an incomplete board before I moved to the next level, I logged on to an online Scrabble anagram generator to see if I could find it.
The generator gave me three choices: agings, gaping, paging. The game accepted gaping and paging, but had a word in between that I just wasn’t getting.
Three different Scrabble generators gave me the same three words, so I decided to give up and see what the word was. I hit the button, and Easy Word filled in the missing word.
Did they just use the N-word in a Kindle game?! Hell yes, Amazon used the N-word in a Kindle game!
