NYT Strands Today (Game #834): The Answers
The answers to today’s Strands game #834 are…
- ANNULAR
- CONQUER
- VANQUISH
- BEAT
- GET OVER
- SPANGRAM: YOU GOT THIS
- My rating: Hard
- My score: 2 tracks
Even though today’s game included three questions (a fact that would normally make searching easier), I suffered a severe case of word blindness and couldn’t see QUASH and CONQUER.
Fortunately, they were given to me in the form of clues and after spotting the third Q word in VANQUISH, the spangram magically appeared like a vision out of the fog.
From here it was an easy climb to the top and while I don’t think my efforts quite qualified for the can-do message of today’s topic, I was pleased to OVERCOME my struggles.
Answers from yesterday’s NYT Strands (Sunday, June 14, game #833)
- COUNT
- LADY
- GENTLEMAN
- BARON
- VISCOUNT
- MARQUIS
- DUCHESS
- SPANGRAM: NOBILITY
