FRANKFURTERRELISH
OA. Haha!
What does OA mean
Official Answer, methinks.
OA for me today
Official Answer
FRANKLINS * SLEUTH
FURNISH – HEARTLIKE
Me too. Much more provocative ti.
furnish – heartlike as well
I’m always surprised by words that aren’t accepted. SHARKFIN, SHARKLIKE, and KHALIF apparently aren’t acceptable words
…and I, by words that are, sometimes. Rushlike was a word today. Who knew.
Yes, yes…similar to or resembling the band Rush
HAINTS* – SURFLIKE*
I was also surprised haint was not accepted. It’s a PSW and a common word in the southern US.
The OA is great. Here’s another ‘foodie’ answer:
FRUITLET – THANKS
FLANKERS SHUFTI
Frankfurters Slither
Same here
Same…
[ FRANKFURTERS ~ SLITHER ]
Same, after failing with FISHLIKE, TRUTHLIKE, FISHNETS, SALTFISH, TURNSTILE, ANTLIKE, SKINFLINT and others.
FRANKFURTERS SLITHER …
AHHHH! The hot dogs are alive!
… so disturbing.
Oh, me, too. Picturing those hotdogs on the rollers at the gas station , HA!
LOL! Reminds of the time when I was in high school and a classmate bit into her hotdog, which sent it “slithering” right in front of our principal. True story!
OA that made me smile!
I got fruitlet and thanks. Another foodie answer!🙂
Yep, Frankfurter & Slithers. They can be slippery little suckers. 😄
I meant plural for the hotdog clearly.
HAUTEURS* – SKINFLINT.
Ooh, skinflint is a nice find!
FLANEURS—SHTIK*
13/2
Liked the OA too.
Mine is FRANKFURTERS – SAILFISH
A day out deep sea fishing.
TRUANTS are very LIFELIKE 🙂
OA, which was both obvious and excellent, and pretty quick. Much better than (although weirdly on point with) Sauerkrauts / Snailfish, and waaay better than Interleukins Sheaf….
Oh dear. Only one-shies today: FILTH-HARKENS (no U), FRANKS-SLEUTH (no I), FLANKERS-SHUT (no I), FLASHERS-STINK (no U). OA is peng!
Thanks for the new word! Peng indeed!
Such a beautiful OA! Great TI!
But alas, I missed the obvious – I had a RELISH 4-worder but never saw FRANKFURTER.
My 2-worders:
INTERLEUKINS SHAFT
(Interleukins is a word created in 1979, a medical term)
LANTERNFISH HAIKU
which could be a deep-sea Japanese angler poem.
After seeing FRANKFURTERS above I found SAUERKRAUT in the letters … FRANKFURTERS has everything SAUERKRAUT does plus N and F. But, we can get:
SAUERKRAUT TURNS SHELF FIT
FRANKFURTERS – SALTISH. Which is true!
FRANKFURTERS SLITHER!
FASTENER RUSHLIKE
OA . I thought about adding the S to FRANKFURTER as I assume that there are many words that would flow from that. But the OA was staring me in the face and was just too delicious to pass up.
LANTERNFISH — HUSK
It was after staring at SAUERKRAUT for too long.
I found Enthusiasts – Shelflike 🤔😁
FUSILIER-RETHANK 15/2
Wouldn’t accept FRANKENSTEIN as a Proper Name/Fictional Name
I don’t see mine above: Fruitlets—Shank
FLASHERS-SKINSUIT
Ha! Sounds like a bad idea for a practical joke or new tiktok challenge.
FLASHERS / SKINSUIT here, too. Love the TI!
Bummed FRANKENSTEINIAN wasn’t accepted. I think that would have been my longest word record.
Thankfully, though, found OA. 🌭💚
Although long words are not particularly esteemed in this forum, they bring me great satisfaction—even with suffixes and prefixes,
The longest word accepted today was TRAILERSAILERS
Frankfurters – Slither
Furnish – Heartlike
flankers, shufti
FRANKLINS – SLEUTH
FURTHERS – SAINTLIKE
OA and loving the TI.
Seems like today’s LB is ripe pickings for one of Jill’s delightful poems 🙂
“Franklins sleuth” …. The PI hired by the founding father to find his key after it got struck by lightning and fell in the woods? Apparently Franklin need not be a proper noun but was title for old English landowners.
I also liked today’s OA; settled for 3w with TI as well – THEREAFTER RUINS SILK
Got the OA and I like the TI. Fun puzzle today

I know I’m 5 days late, but happily found TRUANTS – SHELFLIKE at 2am after a long search, and looks like it’s still a unique solution here. 😁
