GRABSSCHMALTZY
Yes! One vowel shouted “look for schm….”
OA
I got tbe OA today but I protest the use of Yiddish words.
I agree! 👍
I’m going to try to remember that help.Yiddish not my strong suit.knew today would be defined by consonant clusters. Tried sch but not schm.
GRABS / SCHMALTZY
OA in 2 mins
OA
Yes, OA in 10 seconds. SCHMALTZY was the first word I saw, then laughed when I realised what needed to come before it.
*GRABATS-SCHMALZY*
*GRABATS good in Wiktionary
*SCHMALZY good in OED, Collins, Scrabble UK (SOWPODS)
GRABS — SCHMALTZY
I found SYZYGY but I couldn’t make anything from the leftovers.
I found SCHMALTZ and then SCHMALTZY
Pretty much sums up my approach as well, although I started with RHYTHM and CYMBALS…. One of these days SYZYGY will work 🙂
I have found ZYMURGY in the past, but look at those connectors! 🙂
Ha I tried cymbals and syzygy crazy ashtrays then saw schmaltzy!
GRABS – SCHMALTZY
Sugar fix.
OA
Grabs Schmaltzy but it took a bit of time
Same here.
OA almost immediately.
Arguably the easiest game they’ve ever had.
For you. Instant OA happened to me not long ago but not with this.
grabs – schmaltzy
OA When I don’t see it in the first hour and there are Y and Z….I know it’s Yiddish 🙄
GRABS – SCHMALTZY
pick-up schticks
Ha. Well done.
😄👍
No solution here. When I saw just the lone vowel and the Y, I knew it was going to be difficult. Felt the Z would be critical and did Word Finder searches for common words containing AZ and YZ and no other vowels but the few results were no help. Yeah, if I’d looked up all words, might have found it, then again maybe not.
I started with ALCATRAZ which is très au courant, then ALCAZARS, both accepted, then BAZARS (MW) which wasn’t, and ZABARS, because they used to be my landlord, and then my AHA moment. We must be looking for a yiddish word again. I tried MATZA (MW) but no luck. SCHMALTZY jumped into my head. Doh.
