How Strands hints work
Strands is a word-search-style game: connect letters on the grid to find words matching the theme. The spangram describes the theme and stretches between opposite edges of the board. Parade reports that finding three non-theme words earns a hint that reveals letters in a theme answer. TechRadar places this puzzle’s LADIES spangram from the left edge on row four to the right edge on row five; that board-position detail comes from a secondary guide.
