Other countries that do not use the Latin script also may play in English if the language is not suitable for Scrabble, such as Japan.

Famous quotes containing the words smaller and/or countries:
“The higher we rise up, the smaller we appear to those who are unable to fly.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
“In the life of the human spirit, words are action, much more so than many of us may realize who live in countries where freedom of expression is taken for granted. The leaders of totalitarian nations understand this very well. The proof is that words are precisely the action for which dissidents in those countries are being persecuted.”
—Jimmy Carter (James Earl Carter, Jr.)
