WARLIKE – ENDOWMENT
Trump gifting: Jingo all the way.

MEADOWLARK-KERATIN
MEADOWLAND-*DREIKANTER
*DREIKANTER good in OED, Merriam-Webster, Collins, Wiktionary, Scrabble UK (SOWPODS)
INTERTWINEMENT-*TOADLIKE
*TOADLIKE good in Wiktionary, Scrabble US (TWL)
WOMENKIND-*DILATOMETER
*DILATOMETER good in OED, Merriam-Webster, Collins, Wiktionary, Scrabble US (TWL)
AO, also found KILOMETER / KILOLITER; TREATMENT, ENDOWMENT, MEADOWLARK, WINDOW, DOWNTOWN, etc Fun LB today
Good catch on INTERTWINEMENT!
Thanks, a rare moment of clarity.
OK. I have to ask. If one finds MEADOWLARK and the only unused letters are N, I and T, how does one come up with KERATIN before KNIT?
*DAKOIT-TRAWLERMEN
*DAKOIT good in OED, Collins, Wiktionary, Scrabble US (TWL)
MEADOWLARK – KNIT
Lemon vest.
nice theme, Jaf
OA too with MEADOWLARK giving me dejavu but searching does not reveal it in a previous solution 🤔
Thanks, Steph.
Thinking along same lines for TI. A yellow sweater from the Globetrotters’ merch stand.
Was MUDLARK an answer not to long ago?
TOO!!!
aha- it was MEADOW alone on 11/7/23. I never solved that one in 2….
On May 4, all the letters were there for MEADOWLARK, but conflicts kept it from being makeable. Still, maybe you brainstormed it, like I did, and that’s what’s triggering that itch-you-can’t-quite-put-your-finger-on-to-scratch feeling of déjà vu. 😉

😁 yesirree
I remember that. I tried for a while to link up MEADOWLARK.
OA pretty quickly here too.
Waterwomen nerdlike
Nice solution!
Couldn’t see Nerdlike,
Stuck with waterwomen!
KIWI INTERMODAL, but it was kind of a cheat as I was looking up another word.
Wiki intermodal 😄
same
LB also won’t accept TEARLIKE or TARLIKE to hook up with ENDOWMENT.
OA
Got it immediately without one wasted attempt on any other word or words. That’s gotta be a first for me.
warlike endowment
Warlike – Endowment
Took me all morning and I was JUST about to quit
Warlike Endowment…..reminded me of my mortgage! But I enjoyed this as lots of nice answers and SO many words around today: I guess I was hungry: do I recall milk, wok, kale, meal, (I was hoping for mealworm but not quite) but gone from my screen now!
+OMELET, WATER, KIWI, MEAT, TART, WINE, OAT, TEA 🙂

Nice!
WARLIKE -> ENDOWMENT pretty quickly, BUT I first found WARLIKE -> *ENDOMETRIOID
They seem to miss quite a few scientific/medical words.
WARLIKE – ENDOWMENT
REKINDLEMENT – TOWARD
wiki – intermodal
townward – domelike
Yep, me too. Tried a couple of -LIKE but was still a little surprised LB accepted it.
Waterland – Domelike
Wiki intermodal
Kiwi intermodal
I got a three word solve but didn’t try to improve to two because of my middle word:
AWOKEN NERDLIKE EMOTE
This is even funnier because this text box does not like NERDLIKE.
MEADOWLARK — KNIT
Saw MEADOW, then MEADOWLARK, and KNIT was obvious.
I also found DILATOMETER* — REAWAKEN (OED accepts DILATOMETER)
Couldn’t connect KILOMETER, RADIOMETER, or ANEMOMETER
First guess was womenlike but no go. DOMELIKE looked promising.
Got WARLIKE ENDOWMENT pretty quickly and then RADIOELEMENT TWINK
Also WINKER RADIOMETAL
TWINKIE-EARLDOM
Warlike endowment
Rekindlement toward
Matthew Crawley and Lady Mary’s son George, maybe. Oh, how his granny Violet would clutch her pearls, but his granny Isobel would probably found PFLAG.
So many compound words to choose from! Finally landed on WARLIKE – ENDOWMENT.
Womenkind dateliners. Google AI datelines can be considered a word though not in standard dictionaries slang
