I have seen this puzzle around, but didn't quite know what to expect. I have to admit that I was surprised by multiple things 😅
Overall I absolutely loved the puzzle and would definitely be interested into doing another similar puzzle! 🤩👌🏻

Hi! Your pronunciation is better than many of us that speak English as our primary language. I cracked up when you were sounding out 44. Too funny 😂. Of course I’m not solving anything. I’m useless. Love your videos. Thanks for sharing.

@janetteandherpuzzles Ай бұрын

Thank you so much!! 🤗 And yes, what happened on number 44 happens quite a lot - usually those mistakes end up in a blooper video, but this was too funny and I had to leave it in 😂😅 Well to be fair, I didn't solve much either!! I'm glad you're enjoying the videos! 🥰

The word that was 12 letters - reflective something etc. I think it's kaleidoscope. Those tubes that you look into while spinning around and you can see lovely colors and patterns at the end of it. I played with such when I was a child. The puzzle type looks challenging - would be really fun to do with a partner or a team.

@janetteandherpuzzles Ай бұрын

Yes!! Kaleidoscope!! 😅 I actually know what it is, but I just couldn't think of it 😂🙈 And I never played with it. I don't think it was a popular toy in Slovenia 😅🤷🏻‍♀️ That's a great idea! If I ever come across another one, I'll make sure to do it with someone 😁👌🏻

That was so much fun! Hope you have a great holiday!

I'm glad that you enjoyed it! 🥰 I had an amazing holidays, thank you! 🤗

@Laserstormelpies Ай бұрын

Was very entertaining, guessing along. Also, wow - taking the effort to edit in all questions as text on the screen must have taken a long time. I hope this wasnt very stressful to edit just before going into holidays. :D

@janetteandherpuzzles Ай бұрын

Thank you so much! 🥰 It was actually not too bad to add in the questions. The technology is great, so I just took a picture of the text and my phone did all the work for me. So I just copy pasted it all into the video 😁👌🏻 It definitely wasn't stressful! But thank you for looking out for me! 🥰

Ohh I love crosswords and this was so great, thank you for making this video!! 🥰 I've seen crossword puzzles without the text but this would be much more fun and interesting to do. 😍 Have to check if there are any different ones......

@janetteandherpuzzles Ай бұрын

Thank you Vesna! 🥰 Oh dear, I don't think I'd want to tackle one without the text! This one was difficult enough as is 😅 There is a sudoku one as well, from what I've heard in the comments! 😉

Managed to get around a third of them. Also would have been easier for me if it was in Swedish. Really cool puzzle! Thanks for sharing

@janetteandherpuzzles Ай бұрын

That's amazing! 👏🏻👏🏻 Yes, it's always easier to have it in your native language - that said though, I was doing crosswords now when I was in Croatia, and some of them were more difficult than this one 😅

@markb933 Ай бұрын

Hi Janette, Thanks for this great video. We do crosswords especially in winter time and puzzles , so, pigs in poo watching your video. Amazing in a second language too. Have an amazing holiday and as always warm wishes from Australia. Mark+Chris

@janetteandherpuzzles Ай бұрын

My pleasure! 🤗 How interesting, that it's reversed to how I do them 😁👌🏻 Thank you for your lovely wishes! I had an amazing time. Kinda sad it's over, but I had to return to my life at some point 😂😅 Warm wishes from Slovenia 🥰

I did put most of the Across answers on your community post of the crossword puzzle😊

@janetteandherpuzzles Ай бұрын

I saw your answers yes!! You did absolutely amazing! 🤩👏🏻

@puzzleme_0234 Ай бұрын

this is really awesome Janette! This looks very challenging, I haven't done any crossword puzzles b4, but enjoying what you have done. your spelling and pronunciation is so good omg! I would recommend you to check Ric's Nifty Puzzles crossword puzzle videos, he posted some very big ones in the recent months as well and the videos are amazing. thanks for sharing, cant wait for your new videos.

@janetteandherpuzzles Ай бұрын

Thank you so much! 🤗 I rarely do any crosswords too, so this was a challenge for sure! Especially having it in a foreign language! 😅 I have heard that Ric has done a similar puzzle, so I will go check it out 😁

@@janetteandherpuzzles thank you for your reply, i have done 3 big ones like this and i agree they are very challenging when English isn’t a first language. You have done great, lovely puzzle and video. 🫶🏻

I used to do a lot of crossword puzzles as a kid. I have to say, it's very challenging in a different language! The puzzle is an interesting concept though, combining two hobbies. The centre of the amphitheatre is the arena.

@janetteandherpuzzles Ай бұрын

Yeah, I've noticed that! The worst part was, that once I saw the answers I was like 'duh', should have known this! 😅 Because it wasn't really difficult, I think it's just when you don't think of the right words 😂🙈 And yes, it is arena! 😁👏🏻

@FluffyLlamacorn Ай бұрын

I'm still in the first half, so maybe you reflect on this later, but I feel like you were harder than you needed to be on yourself for not getting words immediately. Some of the prompts are designed to be really hard/impossible until you start filling in letters from other words which give you more hints. Your initial round of guessing went great for someone who doesn't do crosswords that often.

@janetteandherpuzzles Ай бұрын

That makes a lot of sense, because it became a lot easier once I put some pieces in and the new letters got revealed! 😁 And yes, I know I can be a bit hard on myself, but I guess it just frustrated me, because some of the answers were really easy and I didn't get them 😅 Thank you for your lovely comment! 🤗

If it makes you feel any better, English is my first language and I only knew a few more than you did lol

@elijoynerjoyner Ай бұрын

Exactly! We’re useless huh. Too funny! I told her she pronounces words better than most Americans.. 😂

@janetteandherpuzzles Ай бұрын

Hahahah love this!! 🤣 Thank you, it does make me feel better 😂👌🏻 But it's funny cuz when I saw the answers, I knew that I could have gotten a lot more of them. I just didn't think of the right words at the time 😅

I suck at crosswords. I’m more into fill in puzzles. It’s like crossword but it gives you the answers in a word bank.

@janetteandherpuzzles Ай бұрын

Yeah, you see, this really confused me. Because it said 'taking pictures' instead of painting pictures 😅😅 Maybe it's just because I'm foreigner 😂🤷🏻‍♀️
