enhance the appearance of
This behavior doesn't suit you!
The true synonym
become
Same sentence, swapped: This behavior doesn't become you!
Close but different
The game shows these three beside the answer. Each is a real word with a real meaning and none of them fits the slot suit is in above, which is the point the reason line makes.
- accommodate
- dress
- shine
accord or comport with
This kind of behavior does not suit a young woman!
The true synonym
befit
Same sentence, swapped: This kind of behavior does not befit a young woman!
Close but different
Wrong tiles, chosen to be tempting rather than absurd. The reason line above takes the nearest one apart; the rest fail the same sentence for their own reasons.
- accommodate
- support
- agree

Play suit
The bank on this page is the bank the game plays from, so suit reaches you as a board rather than a definition: the sentence first, four tiles, and the meaning after you choose.
