Today’s puzzle struck me as a delightful yet demanding challenge. Just when I thought I was out of luck, an unexpected correct guess saved the day!

One category features words you might use when you find yourself in a difficult situation.
Lastly, a category focuses on words that are not consistently pronounced the same way.
