Pinpoint 562 features Intern, Space, Friend, Champion, and Battleânouns that span rĂ©sumĂ©s, rocket launches, relationships, trophies, and warfare. The only trick that unites them is adding the same suffix so each clue becomes a familiar â-shipâ word.
Every entry is a standalone noun that becomes an unmistakable compound once you append âship.â Intern â internship, Space â spaceship, Friend â friendship, Champion â championship, and Battle â battleship. The shared connector is therefore âwords that precede ship.â
