Challenging a Word
Before the game begins, players should agree on which dictionary they willuse, in case of a challenge. All words labeled as a part of speech (including those listed of foreign origin, and as archaic, obsolete, colloquial, slang, etc.) are permitted with the exception of the following: words always capitalized,abbreviations, prefixes and suffixes standing alone, words requiring a hyphen or an apostrophe.
Any play may be challenged before the next player starts a turn.If the play challenged is unacceptable, the challkfged ' player takes back hidher dice and loses that turn.If the piay challenged is acceptable, the challengerloses hisfher next turn. All words (notjust one) made in one play are challenged simultaneously. If any word is unacceptable, the entire play is unacceptable. Only one turn is lost on any challenge. Consult the dictionary for challenges only.
Here's where things get "SCRAMBLED"
Once the word is formed and the score calculated, the player REMOVES the letters that were present at the start of hislher turn, minus any letter that was used to form the new word, and returns them to the dice cup. Therefore, there is never more than one word on the board at the start of a turn.
