One day last week, I witnessed a few sports hosts laughing at a Dolphins' fan for "Undefeated... Unforgotten" tattooed on his abdomen. They thought it was funny that a man would paint a non-word (one that is not in the dictionary) across his stomach. Yet within a minute or two they announced a CD entitled "Grrr" without a hint of humor. I was confused, and upon asking my husband for clarification on this matter, he was also at a loss for an explanation.

Please visit http://oxforddictionaries.com/definition/english/unforgotten and then tell me that unforgotten is not a proper word. Or perhaps you would prefer to do a Google search yourself to find if unforgotten is indeed a word. Please do whatever you need to assure yourself. Do the same with grrr, which spell check highlights as incorrect. Grrr is not really a proper word, but onomatopoeia, a sound word, or possibly slang. Whatever grrr is, it takes a little more convincing in a Scrabble game than unforgotten, which even spell check recognizes as correct. For an example of the convincing needed to call grrr a word, see http://onlineslangdictionary.com/meaning-definition-of/grrr.
