Where do you locate the POGO scrabble dictionary words?
You can check if words are valid/legal using this Scrabble Dictionary checker.
When you visit the page, you'll see a search bar where you can enter the Scrabble word to check its validity.
This has helped me avoid a lot of debates recently! Hope it helps you as well. Cheers!
It does not even give that sorry that's not a word message to me. It just won't let me play it. Whatever it is.
