Not sure why, but 2 thru 4 look strike me as the rhymey words whispered by 14 year old girls at the school lunchroom table. Quite naughty, but understandably, fun and humorous, at that age.

Considering the fact that I'm a 14 year old girl, that might actually make sense :woot:

OK, that was a tricky one. Wrong time to try out new seed words, that's for sure.

EDIT: And why I try Z before F I'll never know. Even without looking at the letter frequency table I know that's wrong.

You seem to like dark mode. I must admit with longer sessions I have to shift back and forth or my eyes stop working properly.

Dark mode is great! It makes everything look techy and cool and also helps me not burn my eyes out from the bright light.
Oh, and it's battery saving!

Thought a little longer this time. IMBUE seemed an error but I seem to remember it wasn’t a solution in an earlier challenge, so I gave it a try anyway. Probably for the best cause it prepared the way for the right one.

Found this one difficult. After the fourth try I was sure the solution was something Hawaiian; because of the number of β€˜A’s and the fact that β€˜U’ was still available. Unfortunately the only Hawaiian word I know is β€œluau”.

The actual solution didn’t come easy to me as in Danish the word only has 1 β€˜L’, but in the end it struck suddenly.
