JUMBLESSINKHOLE
Official, very quickly
🐤🐤 emu koel bobolink bulbul nun siskin
hen
Same
Official also. A contractor’s mistake?
Official here too, after being distracted by Bobolink Hijinks and possible Isms. Probably the best we’re gonna get from this array.
Yes, I was temporarily derailed with HIJINKS. Once I gave that up, it was fairly easy to locate SINKHOLE. Wasn’t surprised to find that it was the official.
Yes OH HIJINKS SUBLIME how you led us astray
Official, also distracted by hijinks and omnibus
jumbles sinkhole:
… lhekosni …
done.
JUMBOS – SINKHOLE 14/2.
LBF score 10½ (6/12 letters guessed).
ESX IYL KOD TFU for tomorrow.
Elephants in a depression? Sad.
Same
And here I thought there was only one solution. SOTA21, you did it again!
So THAT’S what happened to Dumbo’s dad!
Official here as well in record time!
Official. Not super fast but not tediously long.
JUMBOS – SINKHOLE which is marginally better than the official
jumbles – sinkhole
I love when they come easy and hate when they come easy.
Just not seeing it this morning, so I left it with the rather heartless JUNKIE-EMBOLISM-MEH.
I got JUMBLES SINK but never got Sinkhole! Got EMBOLISM, kept getting stuck with H left over. HOMINEM was ok, but not HOMINEMS. My only solution was 4 words: JUNKIES SLOBS SUM MEH… “meh”, indeed!
HIJINKS–SUBLIME was tantalizingly close . . . couldn’t solve for ‘O,’ though.
I was surprised MEH was accepted.
Jumbos sinkhole
Tried junkies first.
Jumbos and sinkhole
JUMBO-SINKHOLE here too

L ⇄ M curiosity that turned up today:
LIME ⇄ MILE
LEMON ⇄ MELON
I’m trying to build logic to find more of these cases. It’s not so easy to generalize. One swap of letters to produce partner words.
Considering just 3-letter playable Scrabble words, these groups appear to be “swaps”. They contain the same letters, just rearranged:
ATE, EAT, ETA, TEA
ASH, AHS, HAS, SHA
ITS, SIT, TIS
ALB, BAL, LAB
…
Many cases observed but none having more than 4 members so far.
So late today, but found JUMBLES-SINKHOLE pretty quickly, after messing about with JUNK and HOKUM for a bit.
