Comment on Show HN: Truncate, a word-based strategy gameparent

Comments

We source the definitions from Wiktionary, but have a much higher bar for words to count as valid in the game. ST comes up often, as I agree it's one of the iffier words, but even Cambridge claims to to be so: https://dictionary.cambridge.org/dictionary/english/st

That page only defines it as an abbreviation (for saint, short ton, street, or stone).

Ah, 2am reading comprehension on my part. Yes, if we ever remove rather than add to the dictionary in the future I might look to axe it.

Yes, please ax "st".
