 Create solutions for the clues by using the available syllables. A question mark after a clue denotes word play or trickery is afoot. The number of syllables in an answer is followed by the number of letters for each clue. Syllables are used only once. After all of the numbered clues are correctly answered, their first and last letters, reading down, will reveal the puzzle's Sage Advice:. Example: Syllable puzzle [4-12] (solution: syl + la + cros + tic) Starting Syllables: A A AN ANT BENT BLE CA DA DI EF EN ER ES FEK GATE GER GI GISM GNIAPPE GO GUA GUAL HA IM IN IN ING IR KAH LA LAM LAV LE LIN LO LOOF MAC MAES MES MO MOD NA NEER NI NI NO NUK OR PHEAS RI RIZE RUM RWAN SEN SOM SYL TA TAR TIV TOL TON TRO TY WASH Sage Advice: = 1.

Sometimes lost is where you need to be. Just because you don't know your direction doesn't mean you don't have one.
