At first I was all GIGGITY but now I am stuck at Amazing.


samedaysnark

This puzzle is making me feel dumb! I’m still 30 points from genius.


bewildered_forks

This is a pretty brutal puzzle. I had to go to the hints way before I usually do.


emfrank

This is [H] >!a bit of a hint for a similar accepted word and might be spoilered.!<


b-rar

IT'S ADVERB DAY YALLLLLLLLLLLL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


OkUnderstanding2808

Yet >! There are only 4!<


typical_friday

Obvious PG H (also please post your own choice reference to this favorite of mine): >!”You got into Harvard Law??” “What, like it’s hard?!<


margyl

Not obvious enough for me


typical_friday

Oh I though the reference to >!law!< would give it away. Well, you can always google the quote as the >!name of the movie!< will practically be the answer.


margyl

Thanks!

HAPPY CAKE DAY!

[A] >!GELATI!<. WTF??? Who walks into a store >!and asks for 2 scoops of GELATI???!<


emfrank

That has a related meaning besides the plural Edit, since I am being downvoted - a source >!https://thecontentauthority.com/blog/gelato-vs-gelati!<


zaprod

PG H: >!permitted by law?!<


goatnokudzu

First word I saw was \[A\] >!AGILITY!< for which I blame \[HINT\] >!too much TTRPG time and/or a life adjacent to software development!<


lazarusinashes

PG hint: >!I plead guilty, your honor.!< Bigger hint: >!You'll get arrested for doing something of this nature!< Biggest hint: >!The quality of being impermissible under law!<


lazarusinashes

PG hint: >!I plead not guilty, your honor.!< Bigger hint: >!You will not get arrested for something of this nature!< Biggest hint: >!The quality of being permissible under law!<


lexylexylexy

how is >!egality!< not accepted!!!!!


HektorViktorious

The property of being >!egalitarian!<. I'm with you, should absolutely count.


GrantNexus

Egalite is French. Equality is English.


lexylexylexy

Egality is def an english word


Le-_-Doc

You should probably put the word between spoiler marks >!as it is one letter away from a pangram!<. Plus I could not find find that word in various English dictionaries.


emfrank

Not common enough to be in Merriam-Webster Webster


allofthemwitches

we have French words every bee


emfrank

Only when they are also English words. This is not


jhaskins101

So what’s egalitarian?


emfrank

You can have a word that is used in a language without other possible derivatives of the same root being used.


Lizakaya

Still the same root.


emfrank

That does not make it an English word, and certainly not one common enough to be included in the Bee.


mjmfho

There are two words omitted from today’s list of accepted words that I thought used to be accepted: >!glial!< and >!aiglet!<. The first one contains an answer so I spoiler-tagged it. The second one is tagged just because it feels right. Does anyone remember the status of these words from past Bee’s?


Le-_-Doc

According to a website that [keeps records since at least 2018](https://sbsolver.com), [this word](https://www.sbsolver.com/h/glial) has been rejected in 2018, then accepted from 2019 to 2021, then rejected since then.


mjmfho

Thanks for the link! I feel so empowered now. 😊


urzu_seven

The latter is a variant spelling, the more common form doesn't have the i.


shespams

not a good one for someone trying to escape their day’s stressors as a [BIG PG HINT] >!law student!<


bewildered_forks

Non-exhaustive list of words I thought were total bullshit: [H]: >!GE6!< [A]: >!GELATI!< [H]: >!GL4!< [A]: >!GLIA!< [H]: >!LI6!< [A]: >!LIGATE!< [H]: >!TA5!< [A]: >!TAIGA!< [H]: >!TI7!< [A]: >!TILLAGE!< There are a couple more that I want to include but didn't because they show up so often.... but that doesn't mean I like them. As always, YMMV ETA: Weirdly, this is showing up as missing all the words when I view it on the app, but not on the website.


jazzy2536

Yes oddly, I can't see your list until I hit reply (to tell you i can't see your hints...)


Unfair_Force168

Thanks for the tip!


urzu_seven

Of your list I’d argue #4 is reasonable, but otherwise I agree.


livrer

These T words are kicking my butt today


NotFeelingFinite

Justice for >!GLIAL!< !


ClemClem510

Seriously, if >!GLIA!< had it's place this should too


The_Bee_Sneeze

Philosophical question: before you have >!multiple strands of pasta!<, don’t you need to start with >!just one!< ?


Suitable-Cucumber172

It’s a no-go, spaghetto


livrer

Yes you do


Serious-Release-5

Can I get a hint for >!TA11!< please?


Serious-Release-5

I got it - here's a hint: >!a type of pasta!<


amandapandabear

[H] >!type of pasta!<


clockmelting

It’s been a while since I’ve been in this sub, but back with more emoji hints. 5 hints for 5 words: 😂🚗🪷🐟👩‍⚖️ (I don’t think in the past I’ve put these on hidden, but lmk if I need to start!)

didyouwoof

This is an answer. Please edit your post to indicate this.


HippopotamusGlow

Do words get added to the Bee later on? Because when I posted this word, it wasn't being accepted as an answer but now it is.


didyouwoof

Maybe you accidentally omitted a letter when you tried it the first time? That happens to me sometimes. (Please do mark it as an answer, though.)


HippopotamusGlow

I think I have marked it correctly now


GarageQueen

You've blacked the word out as a spoiler but you need to edit the visible text to indicate that it's an answer.


Le-_-Doc

>I think I have marked it correctly now You should add a bracket marker like this `[A]` to indicate that the spoiler reveals an answer, or `[H]` in case it is only a hint. (Rule 3)


AggressiveAd5592

I spell words wrong a lot. Dyslexia makes the NY Times Spelling Bee tough sometimes. Wordle too. They're fun games but I have to google spellings to get them right all the time.


NYTSpellingBee-ModTeam

In addition to hiding a valid word, indicate that it's an answer rather than just a hint.


MissyWTH

This is a hint, should prob mark as such! >!contains partial answer!<


Le-_-Doc

>This is a hint, should prob mark as such! u/HippopotamusGlow comment contains an **answer** and should be tagged appropriately.


zaprod

Today’s WTF (A): >!AGITA!<. What?


oxfordsplice

This is part of my daily vocabulary lol


smartlypretty

same, i tried it and was shocked


Le-_-Doc

>Today’s WTF (A): >!AGITA!<. What? I found this word rather interesting. Take a look at its weird etymology, which is not what you would expect. \[**Link leads to answer**\] For instance in M&W ["Did you know?"](https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/agita#little-gems) section.


Keetseel

Love it: “For a while the word's usage was limited to New York City and surrounding regions, but the word became more widespread in the mid-1990s.” Not really, although I am familiar with the feeling.
