Thank you aceplace57 for the Welcome. (I wish I knew how to quote or multi-quote: Probably I’m missing the easy.) And I check back for a 2nd post, and see the game has suddenly bifurcated, Cardigan starting a round of 8-letter chg 0-2. So I’'l answer ‘reptile’ with

creepie

and answer ‘splitter’ with

strumpet

@Gordon_G this thread is for seven letter words. There’s different threads for six and eight letters. Sometimes someone miscounts and enters a wrong word. It’s not a big deal. We just continue with the last correct word.
