Réponses du niveau 867

CÂPRE 6 letters - "Bouton de fleur et condiment" is a straight definition, and CÂPRE is the word that matches. CHIENS in this level is the same length, so check the crossing letters before you commit.

CHIENS 6 letters - the plural form is the giveaway here - "Ces animaux ne font pas des chats dit-on" asks for more than one, and CHIENS fits. The trailing S is often the first letter a crossing clue hands you.

TOUTLEMONDE 11 letters - "Expression désignant chaque personne ensemble" leads to TOUTLEMONDE by definition. At 11 letters this is a long lane - place it early to unlock the maximum number of crossings.

DAUPHIN 7 letters - reading "Mammifère marin réputé pour son intelligence" literally points to DAUPHIN. It begins with D and ends with N; use any crossing letters you already have to confirm it.

AIR 3 letters - AIR is a short, common word - the clue "On le respire" gives it away with a straight definition. It ties with VIE for the shortest lane here; wait for crossings before committing.

RETENTISSANT 12 letters - the clue "Tonitruant ou fracassant" describes RETENTISSANT directly. It is the longest answer in Level 867, so solving it first exposes the most crossing letters.

VIE 3 letters - the clue is a fill-in-the-blank: VIE completes the phrase the puzzle is looking for. It opens with an uncommon V, which makes it a strong anchor for the lanes it crosses.

NES 3 letters - NES is a short, common word - the clue "Venus au jour, éclos" gives it away with a straight definition. At just 3 letters, it is a quick fill - the crossing letters from longer answers should confirm it.

COULER 6 letters - the clue is a fill-in-the-blank: COULER completes the phrase the puzzle is looking for. CÂPRE in this level is the same length, so check the crossing letters before you commit.
