Reveal answer & analysis
LinkedIn Pinpoint #822 connects five expressions built by placing each clue directly before “price”: fair price, asking price, market price, sale price, and name your price. The answer is “Words that come before ‘price.’”
5 Clues
- Clue 1Fair
- Clue 2Asking
- Clue 3Market
- Clue 4Sale
- Clue 5Name your
Why this answer fits
“Asking” and “sale” provide the clearest shopping and negotiation anchors, but either one alone could support several commercial categories. “Name your” is the decisive clue: it behaves as a phrase fragment rather than a single adjective, yet still completes the familiar expression “name your price,” confirming that “price” must follow every clue.
Solving path for Pinpoint #822
- Initial reading: Test Fair and Asking with the same following word. “Fair price” describes an amount regarded as reasonable, while “asking price” is the amount requested by a seller, making “price” a strong shared connector.
- Testing the connection: Apply that connector to Market and Sale. Both “market price” and “sale price” are established commercial phrases, so the pattern works without changing the clue order.
- Final check: Read “Name your” as one complete clue rather than three separate words. Adding “price” creates the invitation “name your price,” which confirms the answer “Words that come before ‘price.’”
