NYT Strands Today (Game #825): The Answers
The answers to today’s Strands game #825 are…
- MARRIAGE
- NUPTIALS
- MARRIAGE
- VOTES
- MARRIAGE
- SPANGRAM: TYING THE KNOT
- My rating: Easy
- My score: Perfect
With the exception of one spangram that started and ended on the same side of the grid, this was a simple game to untangle.
Like many, I guess my first thought was MARRIAGE and it was an easy place on the board to find the double R.
NUPCIAL is a word I’ve never given much thought to, but it’s a good one for describing all the general (and expensive) rigmarole of a wedding day, and it also appears in the least romantic document a soon-to-be-married couple can sign: the prenuptial agreement.
