Words that should be in Firefox's dictionary but aren't

Now, why do you insist that 'blooter' is a word when earlier you refused to accept that the word 'umami' was an actual word? It's right here on that site you linked to. :p

It would be so much easier if we all used the same dictionary...
I personally prefer Wiktionary. It's pretty much awesome.

Because my brother told me about that website after I left the thread. What was I going to do? Go back to it? I said I wouldn't.

Again, even before I left the thread, I conceded that umami may be a word, but no one ever pays attention when I admit I'm wrong lest they have to admit they're wrong about me.

Besides, umami has been in the English language for less than two years.

Because, if anyone can edit it, it's the only way to keep it accurate. AllWords has every word in the English language in its database, as well as a few other languages. If it's a word, it'll be there.

Although technically it's Spanish, "quesadilla" should be in Firefox's dictionary, but it isn't.

*adds*

EDIT: Taco, jalapeno, burrito and fajita are all in the dictionary. It's a conspiracy, I tells ya!

You've already pointed out yourself that it doesn't.
Wiktionary beats AllWords there, doesn't it?
Heck, dictionary.com is easy enough to remember and appears to have AllWords beat.

And as far as other languages go... AllWords has nothing on Wiktionary.

Technically, it does:

The definition just has been removed. Perhaps by a glitch. As far as a wiki site goes, if I had no life, I could go in there and make up fifty words, add their definitions, and then they'd be there.

If there's one rule on the internet, it's never trust a wiki, as Stephen Colbert has proven on many occasions.

Capiche ain't there and it should be, capiche?

It is donut!

I was taught that grey and gray had different meanings. Grey meant looming or dull, like a grey cliff. Gray was just a shade of white/black.

Oh well. :sad:

Humbuggery! I am adding it to my dictionary!
