Nope, I'm swimming in synonyms again. Any hints?
It's clearly a very normal word that I just can't shake out of my head.

@InMySpareTime Sadly it is very common, few of us escape it

I solved Semantle #146 in 120 guesses. My first guess had a similarity of 10.41. My first word in the top 1000 was at guess #38. My penultimate guess had a similarity of 21.62. semantle.com/

I seem to be good at getting an early high green, but Man, do I make a meal of it after that...

InMySpareTime · 24/06/2022 07:19

@LadyOfTheCanyon not as much as I am. I got number 994 but that was 250 guesses ago. Still not getting it and can't make anything of @zebette clue above.
I've added 995 and 993 to my haul of 56 greens and a ???? But still not there.

LadyOfTheCanyon · 24/06/2022 07:21

994 is not a direct synonym of 1000

You use 994 to pay 989 which makes you a 1000

InMySpareTime · 24/06/2022 07:26

Thanks @LadyOfTheCanyon got it. I'm actually not one, which is why I didn't get it.

I got 994 in 45 guesses and then just got stuck. Eventually I gave in and took a hint which was useless (995), so got another (996) and got it in two guesses.

my first green was 331 which sent me off completely the wrong path.
