Hints
Think about edible mushrooms you might find in recipes or nature. The theme for March 3 is “A fungus among-us”, which points to different types of fungi—specifically mushrooms. The vertical word is a spangram that sums up the theme, zigzagging from bottom to top across the grid. A good starting point is to look for a common mushroom name beginning with “S” in the top left corner.
Answer
Spangram: MUSHROOMS (runs vertically, bottom to top, zigzagging through the center)
- Theme Words:
- SHIITAKE (top left)
- CREMINI (center)
- ENOKI (bottom left)
- TRUFFLE (top right)
- BUTTON (middle right)
- OYSTER (bottom right)
How It Works?
You’re given a 6×8 grid of letters and a theme clue in Nyt Strands. You need to find all the theme words (at least four letters long) and the spangram, which spans the grid and ties the theme together. For March 3, every letter in the grid is used exactly once. The spangram “MUSHROOMS” divides the board, helping you locate the six mushroom varieties: SHIITAKE, CREMINI, ENOKI, TRUFFLE, BUTTON, and OYSTER.
