Talk:Home row

What is the largest word that can be typed using only the home row?
 * Possibly the word "haggadahs," from this simple anagram finder. Rmaus 14:32, 27 May 2007 (UTC)

What's the deal with the part about the dildo? I fail to see how that connects to being "home row" 129.244.244.160 23:41, 27 January 2007 (UTC)!

What Actually is Home Row?
Everyone says home row is "asdfghjkl;", right? And the definition of home row is the place where your fingers are on the keyboard when they aren't being used. Well then; what fingers, exactly, are on the "gh" keys? And don't tell me the thumbs. Unless there are objections later on, I'll use dictionary.com as a reference and say the keys are "asdf" and "jkl;". --76.188.148.173 03:38, 19 August 2007 (UTC)
 * I'm not saying that's wrong, but if it is the case, then that means the first sentence of the article is wrong. ""Home row" is a term that refers to the center row of alphabetical letters on a typewriter or computer keyboard." If it is only asdfjkl;, then that's not the entire centre row. Also, I presume "alphabetical letters" means the letters a-z; if so, then ; wouldn't be part of it either. Finally, checking the three keyboards in my house, the centre row also has the ' (apostrophe) and # (hash) keys. So depending on which definition is used, something needs changing. --81.152.100.212 19:38, 19 August 2007 (UTC).
 * I'll see if I can change the wording. --76.188.148.173 22:08, 19 August 2007 (UTC)
