I don't know. The name i'm not making up. Can't get that many words or sentences from it. When I say I think I'm making it up, I mean I feel that I'm arranging the words in a way that I want to see them arranged...sorta with a biased view of the person. And I guess I'm not too sure about lexigrams...i.e. their signifiance or validity. IP: Logged |

DayDreamer.. Only found 46. That is unusual. Very unusual. Is it a non English name? Do they have a middle or nickname to add? I believe lexigrams can give us clues, insight etc. IP: Logged |

Only 46? Thanks for checking that for me, fayte.m. Well thats the full name. And it isn't an English name. What could be the reason why only a few words come out of it (besides too many vowels, and not enough consonants)?

I did it against some more lexicons, took me awhile. Found like 160 so far. But alot of them are not common words. Names, places, weird animals,etc. I really do not understand the vowels or other restrictions. There is simply no logic to it. If you have the letters,..use them! Don't add letters you don't have, and don't take away ones you do! How can a lexigram be accurate if it's altered? I'll post them for you later. Some names can come up low. The lowest I've seen was 27. The highest, 4000 or so.IP: Logged |

I found a few peculiar names and places as well, uncommon to the daily English language. Someone told me that some names don't come out with many words because they are hidden and purposefully do not wish to reveal too much of the person or entity for some odd reasons I do not know. 27 words...how short was the name? Thanks for your help fayte.m

It was 9 letters. But that depends on the name. I don't think I screwed up on this list But if you find any errors, let me know, or don't know what some of them are. I'll probably find more in other lexicons. a ah aha ahh ahs an ana anas anus any as asana asanas ash ashy ass assay assays assiah aa Anaias ai ais ayah ayahs Asa Asia Asian Asians Assisi ani assai ay ays ayin ayins ain ains au han hans has hay hays hi his hiss hissy hussy hu hy hun huns hisn hin hins hansa hansas Haniah Hussain Hassan Haniahs Hussains Hassans I in ins is Isis I.A.

DayDreamer! Hey no problem! I couldn't let you sit and spin with under 50 real words! I know alot of them are odd words, names, places and so forth, but at least you got some more to play with. If you want any definitions, let me know the ones you can't find definitions for on your own. Have fun! IP: Logged |

You are welcome! ENCYCLOPEDIA OF GODS, by Michael Jordan ISBN:0-8160-2909-1 He also wrote;Gods of the Earth HEY! You are doing really great! Even with your's having not so many words, it still requires putting the words into catagories to derive the most meaning! One person who got almost 4,000 words! This was just the regular words, not the names, places, or uncommon words! She is still going through hers, and said that "everytime I look at it, something new jumps out at me!" She uses index cards to help organize hers. IP: Logged |

Michael Jordan?? Do you think I could find his book in chapters (only book store around here)?Im feeling out the words still...putting them in groups really does help me with that. I just type everything in MSWord...my handwriting can get messy when I'm in deep thought. Have alot of ideas rolling around in my head already, but I don't want to jump to conclusions just yet.

I'm glad you're having fun! OK.....Any bookstore should have it or can order it in. Also try Amazon,Or One Spirit......or go to your library! If they don't have it, ask for an inte -library loan. Most libraries offer this service, it's just most people don't know about it. I read alot of obscure and out of print stuff, some have been the ONLY copy found for loan in the country! Yet the local library found it and got it for me through the inter-library loan. IP: Logged |
