Dingy!! UGH!!! I just spent about 10 minutes looking up that word in the dictionary. I couldn't find it at all. Of course, I wasn't looking for the word, just the spelling. There is a difference. When looking for the spelling, you aren't concentrating on any words that you see. I just couldn't figure out WHY I couldn't find it!!! That is until I was going to email the list for the spelling, and went to look at the title of dictionary I was using to tell you all that I couldn't find it in.....are you ready for this? I had the wrong RED dictionary. Here I spent all that time looking in my Spanish dictionary!!! My brother-in-law must have switched them, when he was using my computer :o) LOL, the way the brain works at times_well, my brain, I should say !!! I just KNEW that dingy/dindgy had to be a word!!! I thought dingy was a small boat, and that's what my spellcheck kept giving me as the spelling. Okay, Richard Emlin Reed, what is the German for that word. Now not dumb :O) but dingy. Thanks! Lynn
