Thursday 16 September 7-by-many HOLINESS puzzle
« on: September 17, 2021, 06:02:10 PM »
A few here:

SOONISH – surely this must be a word…

LOSSINESS – state of being lossy

LOSSINESSES – of course! (not seriously suggesting this...)

When we come out of the Covid-19 crisis, we need to make sure recovery efforts address the Climate Crisis (which can't be solved using social distancing!)

soonish is a word - at least it is in COD.

I noticed also that oneish (= 'about one o'clock') was rare, but in another recent game tennish (= 'about ten o'clock') got 'sorry, not known'.
I wonder what Chi makes of smartish, which can be almost synonymous with soonish?

Smartish is accepted in Chi, but it can be used in a few different senses, e.g. smartish clothes.
