Perhaps someone can explain to me the rules in these spelting bees ...
The winning word spelted by Miss Avent-Guard was "
Murraya" ... a genus of plant native to tropical SE Asia ... as such, this is NOT a word in English ... these scientific genus names are strictly Latin or Latinized ... note I caste the word in italics, indicating this is a foreign word and again NOT English ...

What the hell is
that all about? ...
ETA: I just checked Webster's Dictionary ... there's no entry for
Murraya ... only the English translation of Murrey ...
Bow-whoa-whoa-whoa-whoa-gus ... and ewe no eye kann't spelt worth a chit ...
