I don’t even have one word today but I was dealing with an issue at work all morning so I haven’t had time to keep trying. Surely someone beat it in under a minute again?

    The 4-letter one is obvious, perhaps even more so if you’re British. The 8-letter one I probably should’ve got more quickly. The five-letter one is dubious at best. The six-letter one is definitely not a synonym of “post” at all. So yeah, not easy this time.

      I was also struggling to understand the six-letter one. English is not my main language, so I was very confused.

        Turns out I was wrong though, according to the dictionary “post” does have that meaning, at least approximately. I think that sense is somewhat archaic, probably surviving thanks to exactly one well-worn cliché phrase.

      You can give up after 5 incorrect guesses and I would not have gotten any of those I don’t think, I got the 4 letter one based on your hint but that’s it lol
