Q words without U: all 29 of them

The Q is the most awkward letter in any word game, because nearly every Q word wants a U next. These 29words don't. All of them are in the ENABLE dictionary, so they score in Popple and in most other word games built on the same list.

Worth memorizing first: QAT (a chewable shrub), QAID (a North African chieftain), and QOPH (a Hebrew letter). Most of the rest are their plurals and longer relatives.
