~Zak

[Pichu]

Rutro ?

Um... I tried every single letter, and is your word a word? xP

[Zak]

Rutro: 4-0-1

Yes, it is a word, but it's not used that often. What did you use to try?

~Zak

[Pichu]

I tried (a-z) for that letter with that combinations in www.dictionary.com ... No matches found.

[Zak]

I don't know why, but I'm not surprised about it not being on there. Although it IS used in the English language.

~Zak

[Pichu]

Ok then... Yahoo! time.

Jutro

[Lady Vulpix]

It could be outro.

[Zak]

Outro it is

Note: I did a search on Google, and I see it is a foriegn word... now that, I didn't know. So if you're wondering what the English meaning is, it's a movie/film term, as in the opposite of "intro". INtro, OUTro, hehe, yeah.

I think that's not very fair to use foreign words. =P ... If that is the case, you wouldn't want me to do japanese words. =P

e.g. Cowabunga and Nazgul are still in the english range of words, but foreign ... >.<

edit: if I did 'Nandeska' as a word, you wouldn't get it, would you? which means "what is it" =P

I said it WAS an English word. Pay attention --;. The English meaning has a TOTALLY different meaning than the foriegn word. Outro in Portugese (I think thats what the language was, given that Brazilian sites came up), and as far as I know the meaning in that language has nothing to do with the opposite of Intro, film, or any movies. I bet whoever from Hollywood made that term up didn't even know it was a foriegn word. He just thought of what would sound best as the opposite of intro.... and outro it was.

The only reason I pointed out that it has a foriegn meaning was, was because on Google it found more matches of that kind of "Outro" than the meaning I had in mind. I didn't even know it was a foriegn word, until I was bored and tried looking it up on Google. I assumed you also have been using Google, trying words that are _utro, with every letter. Of course I was wrong, but once you said that no matches came up for letters other than ones you guessed would go there, that's when I assumed you were using Google, and investigated the situation. And then, the majority of foriegn sites came up, and I had learned that it is also a foriegn word. So I assumed you had skipped it since you thought of only the foriegn word.

I bet the same would come up on Yahoo!. Although it wouldn't be in dictionary.com, since it's a term that only pro-filmmakers use. I learned it when David Mamet visited our school (yes I'm serious) and worked on a class project with us.

In that case, I think it would be a good idea to only use words that can be found on dictionary.com from now on (it was a pure coincidence I'd happened to see that word once). BTW, its Portuguese meaning is "other".

How about posting a new version now, Zak?

[Pichu]

Good suggestion Gabi!

Okay... no more words like Nazgul or Hobbit for me. xD
