I’ve been playing Phrasle online everyday for a while now, mainly because some of the phrases bring back memories. I’ve decided to post the previous day’s solution here because I think it’s also a useful tool in helping one recognize word patterns (sort of like cryptograms). Give it a try!

Yesterday’s Phrasle Solution:
Fri 3-15-24: KILL OR BE KILLED
