@ZaniXu Words that you normally see only in a crossword, not in common speech.
Zani Xu

Crosswordese generally refers to words that show up significantly more often in crosswords than in day-to-day stuff

Anyone up for a game of spyfall?

GentlePurpleRain

It was on the tip of my tongue...
quartata
It's probably not a distinct species, hence the question mark
Zani Xu
Does anyone want to play spyfall/
GentlePurpleRain
I think the lack of response the last time you asked probably indicates a "no".
