- Hint 1: Sixth-largest island in Hawaii.
- Hint 2: _____ Del Rey.
- Hint 3: It starts with the letter “L.”
- Hint 4: Pineapple Island.
Did you get it? The answer to one down in the Aug. 21 New York Times Crossword is “LANAI.” Colloquially known as “Pineapple Island” because of its past as an island-wide pineapple plantation, Lanai is the sixth-largest island in the state. It has a population of just 3,400, so I don’t blame you for not knowing it.
Lanai was historically called Lānaʻi o Kauluāʻau, translating to “day of the conquest of Kauluāʻau” in English.
