SKYWRITING-GAUD immediately – surprised the OA needed the Y. Kanishk and RF, lovelies, can’t wait to see you and your solutions. Even more importantly, congratulations, K, on finishing your exams!!
Good luck, everyone, and happy Friday – have a great weekend.
Somebody’s pretty quick today! 😉
Ha! Just got lucky because I wanted KYW out of my hair asap and saw SKYWRITING, then it was easy. What a relief after yesterday!
Have a great weekend!
DISTRUSTING – GAWKY.
……………..
Saw GAWKY. And thought that the leftovers are easy letters so I’m confident I’m near to a solution. But I didn’t find a solution after 30 minutes. I put my phone down and went to attend mass. Then went home and while walking my mind is busy making up a word for the leftover letters of GAWKY. I’m amazed at how the human mind works because DISTRUSTING pops in my head suddenly.
………………
Congrats on the quick solve Miss Irim. Let’s wait for Kanishk-boy’s output.
I’m on the same boat as RF today!
DISTRUSTING – GAWKY after coming back to it again and again throughout my maths class – took me about 15 minutes total.
According to word.tips/letterboxed-todays-hints-answers/ (which I prefer over Alice Liang’s, as it gives a much more accurate list of the day’s solutions), I came up with the only possible solution not to have SKYWRITING in it.
Ironically, the first thing I tried when I opened the grid was form a compound word with SKY-, but I have never heard of SKYWRITING before.
Congrats, Irim -and thank you! Time to relax for a while, and take a break from studies. And RF, well done- triumvirate is triumphant once again!
Happy Friday to all.
