Semantle 7

[ElegantlyTouched]

Since weve almost managed to fill our 6th thread I thought I should start the next so we have somewhere to sc

If you're lucky enough not to know what I'm on about Semantle is a word game like Wordle. You need to find the secret word of the day, but it works by semantics, not letters. So you input a word and it will tell you how close you are. You have infinite guesses.

For example, one of the secret words was 'costly' with expensive, cumbersome and burdensome being the three closest words.

If you want to join in the fun followthis linkand prepare to lose your sanity.

If you want to see how we've been getting on up to now our previous thread ishere. We tend to use the threads to rant about how we're getting nowhere, celebrate our successes and laugh about the previous day's top 1000 but please, no spoilers. Subtle hints only here; use DMs for more obvious clues.

Enjoy!

My greens are just making me think about Desmond from Lost

God I made that hard for myself!

I will DM you a clue...however, it may be very obvious hence me not posting here. So letting you know so you can choose to look or not

Sometimes something might involve a 345, but if it didn't it would be 1000.

Please can someone DM me a clue.

I got a green on my very 1st guess (#515), but since then I've been going around in circles & only got 4 others (528, 443, 338 and 312).

Thanks.

@Drawerofcrap something might happen as a ? 528 of something else

Over a 100 guesses and none of my greens are related to each other.

I didn’t knowingly use any clues- saw your’s after @JaneJeffer and it doesn’t help- thank you though.

Do we have any linguists or etymologists who can confirm that was a pile of 💩 please?!

I've never been this far in and this far away!

I even scrolled through looking for the spoiler but it's been deleted.

Any clues - my highest are 990, 987, 984 and 979! Very stuck

Ugh, I didn’t love today’s puzzle! I got a green my first guess (610) but it took me round the houses (ironic) to get to the answer.
