The answers are:
BUSHWAALKALIZED
Bushwalked-dualized
Bushwalked dualize
Same.
This was what I got as well, only out of frustration, because Bushwalked sounded similar to a word I have actually heard before, Bushwhacked. Had Dualize(s) long before I stumbled upon Bushwalk. Have to look it up I guess. Maybe it’s an Australian thing.
Bushwalks Seized
Same here. Some kind of NY conspiracy to nick our walking tracks?
I have my eye on you Sam!
OA, and surprised by it.
And here as well. Kinda surprised it wasn’t the OA. BUSHWA was not in my vocabulary. Miriam Webster lists its etymology as: probably euphemism for bull$#!t. Well, there you have it 🙂
Same here…
[ Bushwalks – Seized ]
Also played with…
Seizable, Subduable,
Bladelike not accepted. Another suffix (-like) not loved by LB, Mark.
Yep, LB definitely does not like LIKE. 😉
Same after not too terribly long
Yup
Same
BUSHWALKS SEIZED. What even is a Bushwa, it looks like an unfinished word!
BUSHWA is when you are chatting with your mate about what a nice hike you are on, don’t watch where you are stepping, and suddenly plummet to your death.
BUSHWA – ADZELIKE*
In a few minutes I “seized” on trying “bushwalk” as my first word. Adding “s” to bushwalk put seized right in front of me and gave me my two-word solve. Yea!
Afterward, I looked up bushwalks. It was interesting to learn how different countries refer to this walking adventure. Bushwalking in Australia; Hiking or backpacking in North America; Tramping in New Zealand; and Rambling in the UK.
LB was its own fun adventure today! It’s late Friday afternoon here in North America. Have a great weekend.
Bushwalks Seized
Me too!! now can seize the day 🏃🏻♀️
Me three! bushwalks – seized
BUSHWALKED — DUALIZED
I spent lots of time with ALKALIZED, but couldn’t pair it. Found DUALIZED thinking that there would be words ending in -ED to connect. Finally found/tried BUSHWALKED. Total guess, as I have never heard of it.
Same path. Finally landed randomly on bushwalks seized
Like Emphyrio, surprised to find my solution was OA. Last time I heard “bushwa,” I was maybe 10. My dad used it to mean ‘nonsense/bunk/guff.’
Haha. I thought of bushwa , thought it was slang and didn’t know how to spell it. So I never tried. AND I was sitting with alkalized
Tried with alkalize didn’t think of balalaika. Didn’t get it until tried a made up word,bushwalks then seized upon solution
another bushwalks – seized
Almost gave up on this.
Barely found this 3 solve
ALKALIZES-SUBDUES-SWASH (21/3)
I haven’t had a 4 solve since my first puzzle more than a year ago. That was close to be my 2nd!
I can’t believe babushkas couldn’t work with anything.

Bushwalks-seized
Well did give me babushka alkalized dew. A rare import for sure.
Bushwalks- seized
BUSHWA—ALKALIZED (oa)
Some other words: BALALAIKA(S), LABIALIZE(D)(S)
OA Bushwa Alkalized. Majes the bs easier to spread. This seems election-related. But what doesn’t?
BUSHWALKED DUALIZE
same for me
😎🐝🇺🇸🇮🇱
You guys are experts at this! I almost gave up with 4w’s, then finally made up BUSHWALK and was surprised it was ok’d. Never saw SEIZED, nor DUALIZE, so I missed the 2w possibilities. Got two 3w’s: entered my shortest, LIB BUSHWALKED DAZE. Also: BUSHWALKS SKIED DAZE. Never heard of BUSHWA.
Practice practice practice, SLC!
BUSHWA / ALKALIZED
Acidic crap if you ask me…
Was so hoping BABUSHKA(S) would work.
OA here, but stumbled upon it. “alkalized” was the longest word I could make ending in “-ize”, and figured that suffix had to play in the answer given no other good options for the z. And because it also used the “k”, seemed like a promising route. So I’m left with B-U-S-H-W, and “bushwa” sounded vaguely familiar, so gave it a shot. Was somewhat shocked when LB accepted it.
I had a devil of a time to even get a 3 word solution:
WHIZ ZEBUS SLAKED
Hoo boy, OA is some real BUSHWA alright. Had BUSHWALK(/ED/S), but didn’t see DUALIZED or SEIZED (🤦♂️). Glad there were some better alternatives than the OA today.
I forgot to post this last night…
