My word of the day...
RHYTON
According to Wikipedia:
Rhyton (plural rhyta) is the ancient Greek word (ῥυτόν rutón) for a container from which fluids were intended to be drunk, or else poured in some ceremony such as libation.

PS: How often can I play Wordo ? Every day only once ?
And if I play twice , and I lose the second game , what happens then with my score ?
I mean , will they add my "best" score od the day or even the BA of both ?
Hopefully you understood what I tryed to explain
( I know my English isn't very good -.- )
Please tell me, because I am still a "Newbie"
You can play twice a day, and they add BOTH scores to your BA. So don't worry, if you miss one, you won't lose the points for the other one.
Happy wordo-ing!

Today my wierd word was "morion" - which is either
"A morion is a type of open helmet used during the 16th and early 17th centuries, usually having a flat brim and a crest from front to back. The morion, though generally identified with Spanish conquistadors, was common among foot soldiers of all nationalities. Inexpensive production costs aided its popularity and dissemination.
The morion's shape is derived from that of an older helmet, the Chapel de Fer, or "Kettle Hat." "
Or....
"Morion or morion quartz is a dark-brown to black opaque variety of smoky quartz resulting from the natural or artificial irradiation of aluminium-containing milk quartz."

Today's word was Canter.. Definition:
The canter is a controlled, three-beat gait performed by a horse. It is a natural gait possessed by all horses, faster than most horses' trot but slower than the gallop, and is used by all riders. The speed of the canter varies between 16-27 km/h (10-17 mph), depending on the length of the stride of the horse. A variation of the canter, seen in western riding, is called a lope, and generally is quite slow, no more than 13-19 km/h (8-12 mph).
Hmm

Ω - You've never heard the word canter? Surprising. How about when a horse walks backwards ... decanter ::ducks::

APTEST - isn't actually a word because APT is short for appropriate. So I guess it would mean most appropriate.
CATGUT - A tough thin cord made from the treated and stretched intestines of certain animals, especially sheep, and used for stringing musical instruments and tennis rackets and for surgical ligatures. I hope that doesn't put anybody off playing tennis or the violin.
