Here there are Letter Boxed August 31, 2023 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:
MWNIDRLFGOYA
The answers are:
MANYFOLDDWARFING
WINDFARM – MONOLOGY.
Sadly, WINDFARMOLOGY wasn’t allowed.
MAW – WORLDLIFYING
Solved through quick inventions. All it needed was to spot the WORLD, which lead to WORLDLING, WORLDLIFY, WORLDLIFYING. However, I didn’t spot the WORLD easily. Took maybe 40 minutes. After that, all the other words previously worked on are irrelevant. They deviate too far from MAW – WORLDLIFYING
I hope WORLDLIFYING is PSW.
Unfortunately not.
Ouch!
I followed your trail part of the way, took the exit at WORLDLING – GAMIFY.
Other One Spoon,
That is way better! Oooh, how I missed GAMIFY…UGH…I was around the corner GAMILY.
Wordlifying is unsatisfactory. Just invented but accepted. It is not even searcheable on Google. I already had the FY. But, GAMIFY. Ugh.
worldling gamify
Got the same, too bad WINDFARMING isn’t an acceptable word either. Neither were my favorite pair: FORMING-GAWDLY
I thought it’s ALIOW: FORMING-GAWDLY.
What does ALIOW mean??
Interestingly, WINDFARM isn’t a PSW. I suppose Scrabble treats it as two words.
Same here….I’ll take it after a rough past week or so! Sousaphone, Vuvuzela???…Come on!!
**@ Steve as well
I gave WINDFARMOLOGY a try too 😀 Ended up settling on WINDFARM – MOROLOGY
Same. Although why not windfarming-godly
I was disappointed that “windfarming” wasn’t allowed, so I, too, settled on WINDFARM – MONOLOGY
Same.
windfarming also not allowed.
However,
FAMILIAR – ROWDYING
is allowed…
Though I do not find the word rowdying familiar.
*@ STEVE
FAMILIAR – ROWDYING too–and quickly. But. . .rowdying? I was shocked.
OK for TI, though: Just them, acting up again.
OA…
OA also. Glad to solve in two, but really, isn’t it spelled MANIFOLD?
They’re different words, really. MANYFOLD just means many times, using ‘FOLD’ as in a word like ‘TWOFOLD.’ Sometimes folks just like to skip over simpler words like ‘twice’ and sound like Gandalf, I suppose. (I encounter ‘X-FOLD’ words frequently enough in undergraduate writing.)
I see now- thanks for clearing that up.
Question:
How to comment when you’re the first one here? I want to comment but i don’t see a comment box.
Question 2:
How to add a profile pic?
Just comment as you did here by asking a question. Somebody else might know about a pic…
LC,
Thank U.
Go to http://www.gravatar.com and upload a pic. This site uses that service. I would not have known that until I examined the HTML code of this site. ☕
Not a secure site, Mark.
I can’t comment either using my phone, but I can on my laptop, I assume it’s just the Chrome interface.
Thanks for the info, Emphyrio.
WORLD PLAY:
Two-word. Can also be one-word.
(Never mind the parenthesis).
(_ _ _ _) (J_ _)
CLUE: an apt reciprocal of J/K, being, JUST KIDDING
i mean,
WORD PLAY.
My guess is: KILLJOY
I’m not as certain on this one as the reciprocity clue has got me a bit. 🙂
BRILLIANT! MR.CHECKMARK!
Hmmmm..I expect you’ll get a KISSMARK this time! A kiss means ‘X’ or incorrect! XMARK!
RECIPROCAL in math is Y/X or opposite to X/Y. Yeah, it doesn’t mean RECIPROCATE in this context.
So, the RECIPROCAL of J/K, being, JUST KIDDING…
Is K/J, being KILLJOY!
HOW in the WORLD did you get it? Mr.CHECKMARK!?
Bravo!
Mark,
So far, you’re 3 out 3. 💯•/•..
Congratz!
No time today so a quick: Framing & Growly, with a letter outstanding. Was nowhere near the OA. 😊
FAMILIAR – ROWDYING also — the usual Saturday night dust-up at the local dive bar.
👍
I would have liked Litterboxed to be refreshed early in the morning so that in difficult ones I can give up late in the afternoon. Currently, it refreshes at 3PM, sometimes later, at 4PM which means giving up at night which is not good for bedtime.
I have no problem with MINI, WORDL, & CONNECTIONS. I can play them in the mornings.
P.S. I’m blessed to have discovered NYT Times Puzzle. It gave me something to look forward to for the next day!
P.S.2. LETTERBOXED is my favorite. I fell in ‘LOVE’.
P.S.3. Thank U, Google Discover. It has been 1.5 years since…
Connections is my favourite, even though it has a distinctly U.S. bias. Well, don’t they all really. It is NYT.
Yeah, CONNECTIONS is very US-Specific. Sometimes, i made zero connections. I can’t relate to some. Esp. the slangs.
worldling – gamify
GOLDFARMING—GROWLY
I was surprised the first word was a word at all, but there you go.
DWARFING—GRAMINOLOGY*
DWARFING—GNOMOLOGY*
*Not recognized by LB, nor as a PSW, but it is indeed a word. (Just ask dictionary.com.)
I think my new favourite word is, worldlifying! Wild.
Wwwwow,
I agree, RADIOACTIVE LITTERS, 3:00 a.m. time frame is rough.
I found the OA but several others using windfarm.
manyfold – dwarfing
windfarm – molinology
windfarm – monology
windfarm – morology
🙂
Another FAMILIAR ROWDINGLY here. I continue to be surprised by both the OA’s and my wild guesses being accepted!
Thought i had something with magnifying.
Spotted manifold very early and then manyfold took eternity
Unfortunately, neither gnomology nor gnomonology – both found in several dictionaries – was acceptable to LB. They would have paired nicely with Dwarfing.
Had Dwarfing, got nowhere. Had Growly got nowhere. I’ve not heard of a number of these words… who knew goldfarming was a word?
FAMILIAR-ROWDYING
🙂
End of a dry spell
Another FAMILIAR – ROWDYING, after searching FOREVER. Had high hopes for MAGNIFYING and MANIFOLDLY, but couldn’t find pairs for them. Kudos to those who found pairs to GAMIFY, GROWLY, and WINDFARM, as I couldn’t close those either.
However, today marks my 32 day in a row of find a two-word solution, my longest streak by far. It also means I found solutions throughout all of August, which was my personal (albeit arbitrary) goal. Kudos to everyone who continues playing and searching for those elusive solutions! 🎉🍾
