Word of the Day: Za

[rcleary171]

Za - short for Pizza
I only came upon this word when researching authorized two letter Scrabble words. I cannot imagine ever using this word in a conversation with the exception being "Do you believe that Za is a legal Scrabble word?" So, for you serious Scrabble players here's something you can stun your fellow players with. And a Z is worth 10 points!

I would never have guessed!

I wonder which men would choose when ordering, a pepperoni and cheese Za, or a Zsa Zsa Gabor.

That's a great name of a specialty pizza. "I'll have a Zsa Zsa to go!". I wonder what toppings would go with a Zsa Zsa?

Aaaah yes. I've played it several times in Words With Friends 2. First time I heard it used was decades ago; a co-worker who was a Fed and had transferred from the mid-west called it that.

I've used the word Za in various Internet word games and it is seldom accepted.

Interesting - on occasion while playing Scrabble I will find an esoteric word on the internet but not accepted by the Scrabble Dictionary. Each game is governed by different standards.
