Here there are Letter Boxed December 09, 2022 Answers from New York Times Games. Our solutions and answers are 100% valid and accurate. We suggest to try and solve the game by your own before using the help of our website.
Sides of this Letter Box are:
HUNTAREMOIBL
The answers are:
ABNORMALLUTHIER
LAMBENT THORIUM
Same here. Attempted HEROIN(E), HERIOT, OUTHIRE, NEBULA(E), and AMBULANT on the way there.
Same
Same, a la phosphorescent lump of kryptonite in a Superman comic.
Also tried Labent (sliding) for a 13/2 but not accepted.
BROTHEL—LUMINA(L)
BROTHEL—LUM—MAIN
LET—THOU—URBAN—NIM
15/4
15 is the minimum number of letters for four words.
I play this 15/4 sub-variant of the game from time to time myself, Mark! It’s at least as challenging than the hunt for two-word solutions, so two puzzles for the price of one.
BROTHEL – LUMINA here as well, and embarrassingly quickly.
😆 I had a similar reaction
Yep. Same here: LUMINA w/o the L at the end.
As a professional guitarist, I’m kind of bummed (but not surprised) I missed ‘LUTHIER.’ Seems to be a pattern with me, blind to the low-hanging fruit.
ambulant-thornier
Same here.
Bohrium Mantle
BROTHER RUMINAL
You could have even gone BOTHER – RUMINAL for a 13/2.
But, then again, why bother?
Oh, Brother!
Oh, Bother!
THEREABOUT TERMINAL
Same here.
HEREABOUT – TERMINAL works as well.
AUTHORIAL LUMBERMAN
Douglas Malloch, among other lumberjack writers! Neat answer, Jonathan!
belabour-ruthenium
FWIW, Belabor (American spelling) saves a letter.
Labor is good enough.
I was quite happy to find Abnormal Luthier – never imagined it would be the official answer, and so far I seem to be the only one submitting it.
It begs the question, is there such a thing as a Normal Luthier anymore?
bother – ruminal
Well nyt staffers on strike asked we not use the website. So tried to come here and do puzzle old fashioned way. But wow much harder. So probably taking this opportunity to have a cold turkey puzzle break. So see you all after tthings get resolved. Happy days ahead to all
Good on you for respecting it, Oscar. I only heard about the walkout a few hours ago. Had I known, I might have abstained or gone at it the hard way myself.
Found BROTHER RUMINAL
THIOL/LUMBERMAN
BROTHEL – LUMINA 🚨 no shame here in how quickly I found it, but I am reluctant to say how satisfying it was 😳
Same here!!
Hornbeam – multihit
After a storm
