Who is ready for a Friday Puzzle?
Friday puzzle
Today’s puzzle will quiz you about “verbjectives,” words that can be used as both a verb and an adjective, depending on the context.
The first clue is for the verb form of the word, denoted by (v), and the second clue is for the adjective form of the word, denoted by (a). Your job is to find the word that satisfies both.
Here’s an example: aim (v), honest (a)
Answer: direct
1/3

3) obscure (v), slow (a)
4) abstain (v), speedy (a)
5) release (v), complimentary (a)

Thank you!
I love word games and look forward to your Friday quizzes. I'd like to think that if I were young during WWII, I might have been one of the codebreakers at Arlington Hall.
