NYT Strands today (game #943) – the answers
The answers to today’s Strands, game #943, are…
- SHIFTY
- COVERT
- DEVIOUS
- STEALTHY
- FURTIVE
- SPANGRAM: SNEAKINGAROUND
- My rating: Hard
- My score: 1 hint
I’m not saying that today’s words were hidden in a particular STEALTHY or COVERT way but after getting SHIFTY I hit a blank and resorted to our pal the hint to get moving.
Today’s words can be interpreted in several opposite ways. The first, is as creepy; the kinds of activities a nosey parker or, worse, a Peeping Tom might employ. Alternatively, they can be looked on more positively as the kind of skills a military operative might employ in an undercover operation — not that the Marines are likely to call what they do SNEAKING AROUND!
Today was also notable for an excellent spangram that snailed back on itself — kudos if you spotted it first.
