Actually I am really impressed with that link, I wish I could +2 you. As an example on the Venezuelan site under using verb conjugations it refers to DRAE as the ultimate source in case of disagreements. "Todos los tiempos y formas verbales, de acuerdo con el “APENDICE” de la ediciòn XXII del DRAE, y con los textos aceptados en el Art.37 de este reglamento. En caso de discrepancias, el DRAE prima sobre los textos auxiliares aceptados"

I have heard of the Real Academia before in my study of Spanish. That is another interest topic for a linguistics forum, but nice to have some sort of definitive answer for a Scrabble Dictionary. Now I can bust out my Spanish game at home and play some.

comment In Scrabble, What is the big deal with playing with etched in tiles?
Good answer. The swapping tiles thing I have seen because for whatever reason the game on the right puts their bag on the left and the game on the left puts their bag on the right. There should be a rule like you should put the clock on the right of the board and the bag on the left of the board or vice versa as stiff as it seems. This is really needed to deter tile swapping.
