      A fun puzzle to start the week...thanks!
      • Cindy Heisler 2s · 2022-08-29T12:37:32.806Z
        Great puzzle for a Monday morning. Thanks, Schmeel!
        • dplass 7:17 · 2022-08-29T13:03:21.644Z
          Cute! I somehow intuited the metanism as soon as I saw the title. But hey, a solve is a solve. Thanks for the puzzle!

                  Nice mental workout to start the week! Thank you, Schmeel!

                    Lovely smooth puzzle and fun meta -- Thanks, Schmeel! (Interesting that when one is very used to seeing something in clue listings, it takes a moment to realize it could be important this time around!)
                    • boharr 3s · 2022-08-29T15:32:40.714Z
                      Took me awhile but I got there. Thanks

                                Surprising how natural the clues seemed.
                                • Carolyn 4s · 2022-08-30T23:54:03.401Z
                                  Finally got to this and enjoyed it. I was way too busy to look at MGWCC so this was a nice substitute!

                                    We needed this! Thanks so much for the fun puzzle!

                                        Thanks, grazie, mercie, danke… and words like that.

                                          That would be 'toda' in my neck of the woods. Thanks for solving!

                                          Silly me, I was going with e.g. and for example, when they didn't work I went back and immediately saw what I needed to. Nice one Schmuel. Its nice to have a meta like this that doesn't give me a pain in a body part, headache e.g.
                                          • hoover 3s · 2022-09-01T12:45:18.356Z
                                            Me too! Why does it take me so long to remember to look at the clues for clues to the meta?!
