I tried JAUNCE and was so cross when it didn’t work, but I see there’s a legit solution with ETHYLAMINE – not a word I’d have thought of! I so wanted it to work.
JEJUNUM / MYTHICAL
Jejunum is my favorite word! I say it all the time.
JEJUNUM-MYTHICAL after holding onto ETHYLAMINE for 9 of 10 minutes. And I see, Mark, there IS a solution, though not a common one, for ETHYLAMINE…JAUNCE should have been allowed. So OA here.
RF and Kanishk, hope to see you soonest, my besties!
Good luck, all, and happy Tuesday.
✅ JAUNCE should have been accepted. It’s in MW, OED, and WIK.
ETHYLAMINE – EJECTUM.
Well done Miss Irim on finding the OA. Waiting for Kanishk-boy for his solution.
JEJUNUM – MYTHICAL here as well after ten minutes trying to come up with a long word with J. Tight array today.
What a wonderful way to start off a new month – the triumvirate shines yet again!
Congrats Irim and RF, and good luck to everyone else, have a good day everyone.
Hurrah! So good to see you both here – till tomorrow, and hope the studying is going well xx
Oa here as well.
Ejectum is such a great word. Good find there. Got the OA. Embarrassed it took as long as it did given I was literally touching a jejunum yesterday. (Professionally of course… Not one I found lying on the street)
Well done, RAS, and Dr Matt, I assumed as much. Used to TA Anat and Phys back in the day when we had, erm, felines on lab tables with pins in them for lab quizzes, so duodenum – jejunum – ileum is seared into my brain.
Ejectum is a great word; just didn’t see it!

For all the word lovers on here… I got a junk email today from Nice News that mentions Dolly Parton’s “titular” amusement park. I think the word they were going for was “eponymous”, but could this be one of the greatest unintentional puns ever?
Struggled to find J words but eventually got the OA
Got the OA after playing around with Jejune which I recall from crossword puzzles.
Also JEU UNMYTHICAL*
*”On Plato’s Symposium.” By Leo Strauss
Used also by Nietzsche and Heidegger.
Plus W.H. Auden, referring to the need of a bed: “…unmythical mortals require one, and prefer to take their clothes off, if only to sleep…”
Jejunum mythical , did it today after only couple hours sleep last night . Took a while too. Is that the definition of half your brain tied behind your back?
Jejunely yacht best I could do.
Got mythical very quickly but could not find a J word.
