Here there are Letter Boxed August 28, 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:
IBERGLTUZAOH
The answers are:
TRAILBLAZERROUGH
BREATHE-EULOGIZE
Also, BROUGHT-TRAILBLAZE for a slight variation on the official answer 🙂
Got the same thing at first. But being obsessive I looked for more answers and eventually came up with LAUGHTER – ROBOTIZE. (And I hope no one ever does put those two together in real life.)
Or OUGHT-TRAILBLAZE for fewer letters. Right, that’s me finished for now 🙂
You would think so, but TRAILBLAZE without the final R not accepted.
Go figure !
Oops! My bad! 🙂
So many seemingly correct words are rejected, you have to check everything. It really makes me wonder what dictionaries they use.
I thought I was crazy and maybe TRAILBLAZE is always two words? But it’s definitely one word, so why it’s not accepted (but TRAILBLAZER is) is very weird. Especially when the game often accepts all sorts of way more obscure words.
Official answer again (which can also go OUGHT – TRAILBLAZER). And I’ m somehow guessing BERNIE HOROWITZ will get to it in a flash (& then possibly do even better) 😉
Oh, those votes of confidence, they will be my ruination… But as it happens, I hit pretty quickly on Blazer Roughit, which to my surprise was accepted as a single word. I haven’t gone through all the comments yet, maybe somebody else already had it… Let me check… Yup, it was already found by Hattie, with a reply from… You!
They were well founded, however; Portland & such like… That said, I am really glad you came up with an even more efficient solution!
Though that’s another Portland altogether;)
Indeed it is. My husband used to work in radio news. Way back in ‘86 he got a call from a national news source asking whether he had “sound” on the Mount Hood disaster. He gently explained he was in “the other Portland”, about 3200 miles away. I’ve come to believe a majority of Americans don’t know Msine exists. They’re the same people who think New Mexico is a foreign country. (Not that they’re completely wrong on that last score. Or on the first, for that matter.)
All of the above TRAILBLAZER variations.
Some chemistry again:
BOUGHT—TRIAZOLE 14/2
BROUGHT—THIAZOLE 15/2
LAUGHTER—ROBOTIZE 16/2
BROTHER—REGULARIZE 17/2
Dang! I worked on both laughter and robotize, but not at the same time, so missed the link ☹.
Thanks PG! I got lucky on that one and actually found the 17 before the 16, since I had ‘brother’ waiting in the wings. 🙂
BLAZER-ROUGHIT pretty quick.
Also RUB-BROTHEL-LEGALIZE for something a little ribald
LAUGHER – ROBOTIZE was mine. Saves one letter.
Good catch Kathy.
Bother Regularize
breathe eologize
breathe, eulogize
I’m not sure why, but BLAZER ROUGHIT is a solution, a 13/2.
BLAZER ROUGHIT was accepted
13/2. Great solution!
Hats off to HATTIE (boom boom)
I got the same, surprised it was accepted! At least now I don’t waste the rest of my day 🤣
RIGHTABLE – EULOGIZE
Not a particularly good answer, but an answer, and it came quickly, so good enough for me today.
Official answer. It’ll do.
Yep. Had a strong feeling it was ‘official.’ They do tend to be so when they come quickly . . .
Excessively long . . . TOUGHER – REALIZABLE
BOTHER – REGULARIZE 16/2
TOUGHER – REALIZABLE 17/2
BROGUE – ETHEREALIZE 17/2
Irritated with the word list once again, as the puzzle rejected TOUGH – HERBALIZE.
Yup, HERBALIZE was among my initial attempts but didn’t seem to sit well with the moderators.
BROUGHT – TOTALIZE
Breathe eulogize
Blazer Roughit
Breathe – Eulogize 15/2
A really long one:
THEORIZER —> REGULATABLE
After a certain point, reply fields are exhausted so this serves as a reply to BERNIE HOROWITZ”s last, typically apt, comment; it’s a vast country that US of A. Lots of stuff to familiarise with 😉 Anyway, on with today’s puzzle
Worth noting (“Is it really, though?” … Hey, mind your own business, interior voice!) that Portland OR was named after Portland ME by a coin-flip in 1845. If it had come up tails, we’d be talking about Boston OR. OR so we’re told.
Heads up, Oregon, for sure! 🙂
