Strands is a free daily word puzzle from The New York Times. Each day, you get a theme and a letter grid where you must find hidden words. Like Wordle and Connections, it refreshes at midnight with a new puzzle.
You get a 6×8 grid of letters. Find all theme words plus the "spangram" that spans the grid and reveals the theme. Connect letters horizontally, vertically, or diagonally to form words. Find 3 non-theme words to unlock a hint.
This theme centers around the concepts of forward-thinking and personal drive. If you are stuck, think about professional terminology used to describe what a person or company wants to accomplish. Check out the full Strands Hint below for more details.
The difficulty level is moderate as the words are quite formal and abstract rather than concrete objects. You will need to look for longer, multi-syllable words that describe mental frameworks. Check out the full Strands Hint below for more details.
Look for common suffixes like -TION and -IVE, as many of today's themed words end with these grammatical markers. Focusing on the edges of the grid may help you isolate these longer terms. Check out the full Strands Hint below for more details.
The spangram today stretches across the board, connecting the top and bottom sections in a way that reflects the theme of upward movement. It represents an aspirational mindset. Check out the full Strands Hint below for more details.
