Come on guys, normal words.... Let's not have any galavanting around out there....;-)

Interesting, when I run google on "galavant" now, I only get 837 hits. Why would it change that dramatically in a few hours? Hmmmm.....

I ran the rest of the words previously posted, just for fun. Here's my comparison of the two google runs. Any ideas as ...[text shortened]... ascentia - 3 5
Nongangrenous - 128 85
phrontistes - 154 155
ravanastron - 166 159

Inspired by my last puzzle thread, lets play the google game.

The winner is the person who finds a common english word which has the least amounts of google hits. the following rules apply.

1) It must be common i.e. be found in a smallish dictionary
2) It must be spelt correctly (no slang stuff)
3) It has to have 5 or more letters


I'll start the bidding with the word

Kilns = 695,000 hits

galavanted - 601

crunodes-677
Gunites-727
Gruntles-773
Glike-640
Peloric-999 (?)


Hmm... Kolytic-47... in Dictionary.com.... Dunno about mini-dictionary.... Don't have one 😛


Well, I found 'em all on dictionary.com.... :s

That's enough for now...

stomachfuls 152

halfpennyworths 15

English - 490,000,000


I win.

isn't this meant to be the LEAST number of hits?

any way

I - 1,600,000,000

You are all aware that there is a rule that says the word must be at least FIVE letters long, right?
