Hidalgo
So I was playing WORDS with friends, a rematch with my
daughter Nicole, and my first set of letters made the word hidalgo, and I played it not knowing if it was a word or not. I wasn't truly surprised to find out that it was because after all WORDS with friends considered it one,
and it was worth 52 points. Way to start
the game, I thought and then I figured I’d look up hidalgo. Anyway a simple
definition is not what came up first. Instead there were references to a horse
named Hidalgo and the movie with Viggo Mortensen based on the legend of the
American distance rider Frank Hopkins. There’s also a couple of places with the
name Hidalgo, a state in Mexico and a Hidalgo County in Texas. I had to type in
hidalgo definition to get a one and I found out that hidalgo is a noun that
names the traditional title of Spanish noblemen or gentry. So now I know what
hidalgo means, besides being a great seven letter word that will ultimately
lead to another victory (also a seven letter word) in the game. Olé!
