Hints — one at a time
Hint 1 of 5
Today's four words move from a flavor associated with fresh breath, to someone powering a boat with oars, to a group of baby birds watched over by their mother, to the act of starting something fresh from scratch.
Hint 2 of 5
One word describes a cool, refreshing flavor found in gum and toothpaste; another is a person who propels a boat using oars; a third is a family of young birds, or a state of gloomy worry; the last means to clear everything and start over.
Hint 3 of 5
Picture chewing a stick of fresh gum, someone pulling hard on a pair of oars on a lake, a hen watching over her chicks, and pressing a button to restart a device.
Hint 4 of 5
Near-matches to help narrow it down: think "fresh" for the first, "oarsman" for the second, "hatchlings" for the third, and "restart" for the fourth.
