Welcome to Scribo Crossmots

Crossmots, available in 27 combinations, are two-language crosswords designed to help students and individuals who are learning or need to learn a second language and are specifically designed to help improve vocabulary skills.  So, if the clue is in one language the solution is in the other.  We hope you have lots of fun.  

 

Currently, crossmots are printed in the following English-language newspapers:

 

  • The Riviera Times, based in Nice, France
  • The Budapest Times of Hungary
  • The Voices Newspaper, based in Didim, Turkey
  • The Helsinki Times, Finland (Finnish language themed pages)
  • The Rio Times, Rio de Janerio, Brazil

 

Crossmots are also available from the AmericCymru website (English-Welsh)
