Okay, so, today I spent my time working on crossword puzzles. I’ve been trying to figure out this word “buries” and its meaning for a while now. Let me tell you, it was quite a ride.
At first, I went through some websites and found some answers about this word. One site said there were 59 answers to “buries.” Another mentioned 30 answers, specifically for “buries, as ashes.” It was a lot of information. I mean, seriously, who knew there could be so many ways to say “buries”?
I started to jot down some possible answers.
- INTERS
- TROUNCES
- INURNS
- EMBEDS
- ENTOMBS
Then, I started thinking, “Wait a minute, how many letters are we talking about here?” I noticed some answers were 6 letters long, others were 8. I looked deeper and discovered that the most common solution for “buries” was “INTERS” with 6 letters.
I read another source that mentioned the word “buries” had appeared in 10 publications with 7 possible clues. This made it even more complicated.
Finding the Right One
To narrow it down, I started looking at daily crossword puzzles from sources like the NY Times. I checked the Premier Sunday puzzle and other popular ones. I realized that I needed to figure out how many letters were in the word I was searching for. It was either 6, 7, or 8 letters. Some places suggested that I focus on 6-8 letters answers.
Then I focused on the context. Was it about burying ashes? Was it about something else? I eventually found that the clue I was working with was about covering something up, so I chose “EMBEDS” from the list, which felt right for the puzzle I was solving.
After hours of searching, cross-referencing, and thinking, I finally solved the puzzle! It was a bit of a messy process, but it was rewarding to finally find the right answer.
