world, new, spanish, gold, then hit a brick wall (might have got further if I'd guessed jewel instead of jewellery) but then saw what looked like 'worn' and then 'hat' in the first line.

tough one, got three (!) hits for etiquette so got stuck on that and related ideas.

I solved Redactle Unlimited #339 in 21 guesses with an accuracy of 76.19% and a time of 00:11:04.

thought of island too late, and then thought of ‘New Foundland’ first - which isn’t even the right orthography (and only the world's 16th-largest island apparently)

Like ledge, I spent a lot of fruitless time in Europe until I finally tried Portugal, and since medieval didn't turn up, that all led pretty quickly to Brazil. But getting dude's name was a lucky guess, because I've watched YTs on this era but the first name barely lodged itself in my brain.

so proud of myself for getting this one so quickly with zero knowledge about this kind of stuff. got the second word in 8, the first word just came up in my brain, didn’t even know it was a real thing, but I guess I must have picked it up somewhere

Yeah I'm on a 3-day Had To Cheat streak. :\

Broke the streak, got this one honestly. I went down the "domesticated" rabbit hole which was a wild goose chase, but once I stopped chasing my own tail, I remembered that the correct word had a long history in English (though I'd forgotten the details) and that was what got me to the answer.
