Tuesday Strands time and we have a musical themed puzzle today, but with a very specific type of instrument. But first...The New York Times’ Strands puzzle is a play on the classic word search. It’s in beta for now, which means it’ll only stick around if enough people play it every day.
There’s a new game of Strands to play every day. The game will present you with a six by eight grid of letters. The aim is to find a group of words that have something in common, and you’ll get a clue as to what that theme is. When you find a theme word, it will remain highlighted in blue. You’ll also need to find a special word called a spangram. This tells you what the words have in common. The spangram links two opposite sides of the board. While the theme words will not be a proper name, the spangram can be a proper name. When you find the spangram, it will remain highlighted in yellow.“Some themes are fill-in-the-blank phrases. They may also be steps in a process, items that all belong to the same category, synonyms or homophones,” The New York Times notes.
‘Strap In’—Fed Suddenly Braced For A U.S. Dollar ‘Crisis’ That’s Predicted To Spark ‘Total Collapse’ And A ‘Critical’ Bitcoin Price ‘Tipping Point’NYT hint first then we will move to a hint of my own that I think will push you further. The official hint is:Time to start with the spangram and then move on to the full list of answers after that.
But other ones? I’ve heard of a bell TOLLing but KNELL? PEAL? I have no idea what those are meant to sound like. I know what a death KNELL is, like a final sound before you die, and looking it up, it’s how bells ring for a funeral in a somber way, so that makes sense.
