IMHO you might apologise to betterlate1-0.

Her post was "fictional country, means proper noun, should not be in there" which, in fact, could be interpreted as supporting your request.

@lolamoth

You may want to post this in the 'Recommend addition/removal of words' thread which is Lexulous uses for "recommending words to be added/removed from the Lexulous Word Lists".

Whether Lexulous has the option/desire to actually take up these recommendations seems to be an open question (as is debated in the thread).

Why are people complaining here about specific words? Aren't the word lists written by other people?

First of all I agree with Tiger-- the word list is made by some committee somewhere that has NO affiliation with Lex.

Secondly before complaining you guys might want to look in more dictionaries!

@lolamoth are you still crying about the word 'wakanda' ? Someone really ruffled your feathers when they dropped that bingo on you, didn't they?
