inquietude is also a word, which I've actually heard more than inquiet

dictionaries say inquiet exists, but is archaic

Rubio

Defenders' words must be a single, Scrabble legal word (excluding tile restrictions). (not to say "in the scrabble dictionary", but - a single, non-proper, non-capitalized, non-hyphenated, non-abbreviated, non-initialism word)
Attackers can use anything they think someone might guess.

Google says inquiet is french

ffao

apparently not completely archaic, since Morgan still uses it

Rubio

^^^ refreshing the other rule post

Morgan G

12:24 AM

lol

Rubio

since people have asked a couple times about things covered by it today

Morgan G

It might be the French influence. I go to University in Quebec, so I've picked up odd phrases that are French-isms like "close the lights" or apparently "inquiet"
