Sorry for abusing the list, but I cannot resist to ask in this context... A friend of mine who is in America due to his study sent me an e-mail the other day about his playing scrabble with his professor's family. He filled in the gap between e__t with yo. He knows this word from The lord of the rings (obviously I haven't read it often enough, for I could not remember the word). But noone else believed this word existed. So, native English speakers: Did you know the word eyot? It means: Small island in a river (German translation: Werder) Have a nice day!
