Today’s NYT Strands #705 Answer for February 6, 2026

  • Spangram word – FEATURES
  • Remaining words : Eyes, Nose, Brows, Mouth, Cheeks, Forehead, Hairline

Today’s Strands was an intimate look at human anatomy, requiring a bit of a “mirror-check” to visualize where everything sits on the grid. The Spangram was particularly satisfying to uncover, as it perfectly summarized the disparate parts into a cohesive whole. I noticed that the board utilized the edges quite effectively, with the longer words wrapping around the perimeter like a natural frame. It wasn’t overly complex, but the flow of the letters felt very organic, much like the biological theme it was representing. If you started from the center and worked your way out, you likely found the features falling right into place! I’d rate it 4 out of 5.

NYT Strands Rules

NYT Strands is a word game that is played on a 6×8 letter grid containing seemingly random letters. Each letter must be used in some way so that when all the words have been found, the board is full, leaving no letter unused.

Each puzzle has a theme, but you don’t know what the theme is. A hint is provided at the start of the game. You must guess all the common theme-related words that have something in common, leading to the Spangram.

Spangram is a special challenge word or base of the theme. All the words, when solved, are denoted in blue except the Spangram, which is denoted in yellow when guessed correctly and touches two ends of the board, side to side or top to bottom. Spangram denotes what’s common between all the other words on the board.

Note: Players can find non-theme words to earn hints. Every 3 non-theme words will unlock a hint.
