Today's NYT Strands hints and answers Looking for Monday’s Strands hints, spangram and answers? You can find them here: Well it’s Tuesday, a day named for the god Tyr from German and Norse mythology. A god of war. That’s why most wars start on Tuesdays.
Just kidding! I’m pretty sure any day is as good as another when it comes to war. Or as bad, as the case may be. But we’re not here for gods or war, we’re here to uncover words.
Let’s solve today’s Strands, shall we? Strands is the newest game in the New York Times’ stable of puzzle games. It’s a fun twist on classic word search games. Every day we’re given a new theme and then tasked with uncovering all the words on the grid that fit that theme, including a spangram that spans two sides of the board.
One of these words is the spangram which crosses from one side of the grid to another and reveals even more about the day’s theme. Spoilers ahead. Here are some hints to help you solve today’s grid.

Clue: But also peanuts. Here are the first two letters of each word: TO NA TA WA NU AR Remember, spoilers ahead! Today’s spangram is: SHELLS Here’s the full list of words: TORTOISE NAUTILUS TACO WALNUT NUCLEUS ARMADILLO Here’s the completed Strands grid: Today's Strands Other than the pretty easy spangram—SHELLS—this was a tricky Strands.
For one thing, it was kind of a leap to get from “I’ve got you covered” to “things with shells” especially when some words were NUCLEUS or NAUTILUS. Some of these are food items, like TACO or WALNUT, while others, like ARMADILLO and TORTOISE are animals. I like a good, challenging Strands, however, so this was nice.
