Remarkable! That guy’s larynx knows exactly what its doing.
Great! Both of those guys had doubtful larynges!
OA.
OA in a jiffy.
Yup! The 2025 streak is alive!
…and doubtful luxury
OA after giving up on LUXURYBRAND as one word
No N
3 word answer.
…well done.
Not possible
Left out the N
DOUBTFUL — LARYNX
After seeing the -FUL suffix, I then saw LARYNX and worked backwards.
I really wanted ROUNDABOUTLY to work but I could pair it. It only leaves the FX so maybe someone else can think of something (??)
I got stopped by ROUNDABOUTLY too.
Kinda sorta the same thinking (but in a more ROUNDABOUT LYNXY way to OA
First time ever getting it in 2 and I did get OA!
OA
So many possibilities, but no OA today: FOUNDRY LAUNDRY TROUBADOUR TURNABOUT ROUNDABOUT DOXY FOXY BOXY
After ROUNDABOUT limited it to just FX left, I realized the key was finding a solution where the F and the X weren’t in the same word. I also had putzed around with it enough to realize the X word would be the shorter word. So I started looking for the longest words I could find with F in them and having spotted the suffix -FUL, focused there first.
*ROUNDABOUTLY (not ROUNDABOUT) – sorry for the typo
The hardest thing is abandoning such great finds….my block was boundary
Doubtful—Larynx—the next 4 years of health pronouncements under RFK.
Give this man a prize.
Yes, dysphonia strikes again. OA Doubtful Larynx has gotta be a one-off.
OA here in under 10. Found LUXURY first, then with the remaining letters found DOUBTFUL. Had to stare at the remaining letters for a minute or two – I don’t think the coffee’s kicked in yet!
Amateur opera singer on opening night with the jitters!
OA
OA
I saw Luxury right away, then several other possiblities (I wanted Roundabout to work also) but not Doubtful. Barnyard + Outflux use all the letters; I linked them for the threebie Barnyard-Dobro-Outflux. ALIOW
OA. Definitely spent some time with Luxury and Outflux. Finally saw Larynx and then Doubtful was easily spotted.
OA quickly today
OA,
ROUNDABOUTLY, FAUXBOURDON good in Merriam-Webster but not LB
I did hang way too long with ROUNDABOUTLY. But no joy finding a pair.
Also loved abundant/abundantly,
for awhile. Some pretty fun words.
Abondanza!!
Forgive the monologue…. I’m having fun talking to myself.
BALAFO* OUTBOUND DRUXY*
I had a hard time letting go of troubadour… even with the o,u, and r repeating. I also liked boundary, boxout, and really wanted tunaland to be a word.
I had my DOUBTs but found my voice… I mean, LARYNX.
doubtful – larynx
slowly went from lynx to larynx
Struck out after spending forever on LAUNDRY, TROUBADOUR, BARNYARD, and most frustratingly ROUNDABOUTLY. Didn’t see LARYNX.
OA funny, tried an hour this morning no luck . After work hoisted a couple and saw it in 30 sec.
