Overview

What LinguaBoard is

LinguaBoard is a daily matching puzzle centered on a 3x3 grid. Your task is to decide which language belongs in each of the nine cells. Around the grid, the puzzle presents language-related clues that draw on linguistics, writing systems, and translation facts. Read the clues, compare them with the languages available, and place each language in the cell it fits. Once you have filled every cell, submit the completed grid as your daily answer. A new puzzle is published every day, and the game is free to play in a web browser. Created by MachineTranslation.com, LinguaBoard is also listed as a play-link on listdle, making it easy to find alongside other daily word and language puzzles.

Getting started

How to play

Start by looking at the full 3x3 grid and reading the clue text on its sides. Each clue gives a fact related to a language, which may involve a script, a language family, or a translation relationship. Use each clue to determine which language belongs in a particular cell; some clues may eliminate several options while others point directly to one language. As you place languages, revisit remaining clues to confirm that your choices still fit together. When all nine cells are filled, submit the completed grid as the daily answer.

Tips

  1. Start with clues that mention a specific script or writing system, since these are often the most concrete way to identify a language.
  2. When two languages seem similar, compare the translation-related clues to see which one matches the relationship described.
  3. If a clue feels ambiguous, check it against the languages that have not yet been placed and see which one still fits without contradiction.
