It is.The company that makes some of the world's most iconic board games including Scrabble, Monopoly, and Clue is developing a new one based on Wordle, the obsessively popular digital word-guessing game. Sokolowski said he anticipated a transitional period for some players who may need time to get used to having so many new words to play with.

To be included in the fifth edition of the 36-year-old book a word must be found in a standard dictionary, can't require capitalisation, can't have hyphens or apostrophes and can't be an abbreviation, in addition to being two to eight letters, reflecting the seven tiles players draw plus an eighth already on the board they can attach a long word to for bonus points.ДЄmong the highest potential scorers among the new additions is 'quinzhee', a shelter made by hollowing out a pile of snow. Definitions are kept to a minimum but parts of speech and whether a plural is available are noted.

But it's a rare word starting with 'q' that doesn't require a 'u'.ДЄ bonus, to a word aficionado like Sokolowski: qajaq is a palindrome, though that's inconsequential in Scrabble. The lexicographer and editor-at-large for Merriam-Webster said in a recent interview with Daniel, that qajaq reflects the Inuit roots of kayak and would require a blank tile because Scrabble sets only have one Q. One woman's te is another man's 'qajaq', one of Peter Sokolowski's favourites among the new words. The more two-letter words we have, the more possibilities a word will fit.'
