NYT Strands Today (Contest #124) – The Answers
The answers to today’s Strands question, game #124, are…
- NARRATE
- PRONUNCIATION
- CONVERSATION
- SIGN
- SPEAK
- EMPHASISFULLY
- TO DECLARE
- SPANGRAM: ARTICULATION
- My score: Simple
- My score: Perfect
This is a fairly easy Strands puzzle that simply involves finding words that mean ‘articulate’. The theme clue gave the game away quite a bit, so when I found TELL I was good to go. Words like TALK and UTTER were also easy to figure out, and only the spangram really complicated it, simply because it’s a long and complex word.
