FISHEYEENTRAPMENT
FRATERNISE—EMPATHY 17/2
I’m struggling to find something smaller.
Excellent!
Best I could do was APARTMENT-TRASHIFY which unfortunately was not accepted 🙂
Thanks. 🙂
I was also trying ‘metaphrase’ but couldn’t link it into a pair.
love your solution….if only! i got the not so meaningful FAMISHES/SPRAYPAINT
Famishes/Spraypaint too.
Was very annoyed and frustrated that Spraypainter was not accepted as that was my job description for a number of years….
Same here! And ‘spraypainter’ would have worked so well with ‘refreshment(s)’
Fraternises – shrimpy
Me, too.
Anyone else get a BAJILLION doubles with one letter still unused?
I got more than any other time.
And some really big words I was sure must be it but just couldn’t make it work:
Amphitheaters
paranthesise
Synthesiser
rayfishes
refreshment
And heaps of others. Could just never find a workable pair that used all the letters. Was shocked because there seemed to be so many options!
Yup, really thought I was on to something when I found RHYTHMS, but neither FAINTER nor PAINTER quite got the job done as a suitable match.
Can’t believe I missed AMPHITHEATRE; kudos to you, HY!
Anyone for AMPHETAMINES? 🙂
Found amphitheaters and refreshment. Some other hopeful words were entertainment, entertainers, enterprise, feminism, feathers, freshmen and hemisphere.
I worked long and hard with both empathy and shrimpy, but never saw fraternise. Saw fisheye, but missed entrapment.
I was sure emphysema would get me there, but it took an age to see it.
Yes. Was bummed that ‘Refreshment Therapy’ only left one letter. Would have been thematic, and so appropriate for a Friday afternoon!
Interfere Emphysema
I agree so many options with one letter remaining.
My one as well, but I worked for hours looking for it.
FRAMESMITH—HYPHEN 16/2
I’m not sure why I didn’t see this one earlier.
Stuck on empathy and interfaith. Got official.
Also wanted fainters-shrimpy but I guess fainters isn’t a word.
I got amphitheater and refrains
If FISHEYE is a word, a. I’m fine with snakeeyes once in a while & b. how come not one of IMPARITY, MISPHRASE, FAINTERS (tried that as well, TK), FAMISHMENT or ENFRAME is? HYPHEMIA, I get it, is a bit of a stretch, as is PHRENISM. Anyhow, I hold FAINTERS – SHRIMPY 15/2 to be, at worst, as legit as the official answer & move on.
A ‘fail’ for me today.
I found some fun long words–
emphysema, spraypaint, amphitheaters, refreshment–
but no 2-solve.
Lots of big words but no joy today. PARASYNTHESIS was my big boy but I couldn’t find a word to finish in two. Ah well, it’s good to remember we can suck and still live another day.
Good on all of you who found a solution!
I’m seeing all my many unsatisfying answers here, from Fraternises Shrimpy to Famishes Spraypoint plus all the promising but disappointing words PG listed. Everything except the official Fisheye Entrapment! Another bear if a puzzle!
