        OA here too. Apparently a minority position. And I do have others. So….

        Meadowlark Knit, Lemon’s secret hobby; Kiwi Intermodal, though as they’re flightless snd non-aquatic, the options are limited; Twinkie Earldom, from snack mogul to the House of Lords in one generation; and Radioelement Twinkie, the secret of its eternal shelf life.

            Benjamin,I remember once when you saw your name in the puzzle,and Bernie too. Today I saw Metoaka, my 8th gen great grandmother who was Pocahontas’ 5th great grandaughter. Pocahontas died in Gravesend, Gravesham borough Kent England.this world is very small

            Nice, Bill. Pocahontas ending up in England is something we’re tought in American history, or at least in the movies where I think she married Christian Bale. 😂

          The kn sequence might not immediately occur to everyone, especially if English is not their first language.

      OK. I have to ask. If one finds MEADOWLARK and the only unused letters are N, I and T, how does one come up with KERATIN before KNIT?

        That’s cos he’s not coming up with it, he’s just putting the letters into an answer generator, an anagram solver or ChatGPT.

        I would guess the order of their going was the reverse. First they found Keratin, which was very satisfying, then they looked for a link starting with N and found nothing, then they looked for a link ending with K, and lo and behold, Meadowlark. In the excitement, they might easily have not thought about alternatives Keratin. Too vested, you might say. I speak from experience.

        On May 4, all the letters were there for MEADOWLARK, but conflicts kept it from being makeable. Still, maybe you brainstormed it, like I did, and that’s what’s triggering that itch-you-can’t-quite-put-your-finger-on-to-scratch feeling of déjà vu. 😉

        WIKI – INTERMODAL for me too. Thought it might be OA, as WIKI seemed just annoyingly out there enough. Wouldn’tve gotten MEADOWLARK. 🙄

    OA
    Got it immediately without one wasted attempt on any other word or words. That’s gotta be a first for me.

    Warlike Endowment…..reminded me of my mortgage! But I enjoyed this as lots of nice answers and SO many words around today: I guess I was hungry: do I recall milk, wok, kale, meal, (I was hoping for mealworm but not quite) but gone from my screen now!

    WARLIKE -> ENDOWMENT pretty quickly, BUT I first found WARLIKE -> *ENDOMETRIOID

    They seem to miss quite a few scientific/medical words.

    I got a three word solve but didn’t try to improve to two because of my middle word:
    AWOKEN NERDLIKE EMOTE
    This is even funnier because this text box does not like NERDLIKE.

    MEADOWLARK — KNIT

    Saw MEADOW, then MEADOWLARK, and KNIT was obvious.

    I also found DILATOMETER* — REAWAKEN (OED accepts DILATOMETER)

    Couldn’t connect KILOMETER, RADIOMETER, or ANEMOMETER

    First guess was womenlike but no go. DOMELIKE looked promising.

    Got WARLIKE ENDOWMENT pretty quickly and then RADIOELEMENT TWINK

    Matthew Crawley and Lady Mary’s son George, maybe. Oh, how his granny Violet would clutch her pearls, but his granny Isobel would probably found PFLAG.

    Womenkind dateliners. Google AI datelines can be considered a word though not in standard dictionaries slang

    I had to come back to this multiple times. One of those days when I got attached to something and spent way too much time on it. Tried to do something with WOMENKIND and WATERWOMEN to no avail. Oh well, finally bashed my way into TOWNWARD – DOMELIKE. ALIOW!
