The green swoosh is only to make the puzzle solvable. It is not part of the answer.#2: JoDeen Mozena (ozymoe) on Mar 6, 2019
I'm finding this one very tough. I've tried the word and all sorts of synonyms for it, but can come up with nothing that makes any sense. I'll keep trying.#3: Norma Dee (norm0908) on Mar 6, 2019 [SPOILER]
Break up?#4: Joe (infrapinklizzard) on Mar 6, 2019 [SPOILER]
Remember these are all-text puzzles. So what are the black things on the first line??#5: Steve (stevieb) on Mar 6, 2019
I have no clue!#6: Jota (jota) on Mar 6, 2019 [SPOILER]

All
Two dots over a letter: We rather casually use “umlaut†to mean “two little dots above a letter,†but not all little dots are umlauts. The mark that prevents two adjacent vowels from combining into one syllable is called a “diaeresis†or “trema.â€#8: Aldege Cholette (Aldege) on Mar 6, 2019 [SPOILER]
Not sure how this would apply to the puzzle :)
Is it Braille for how the blind read?#9: JoDeen Mozena (ozymoe) on Mar 6, 2019 [SPOILER]
I never thought of umlauts...I see the word "breath" with the edges left hanging up when the straight parts of the last two letters dropped down...actually, the last half of "breath" drops....#10: Norma Dee (norm0908) on Mar 6, 2019 [SPOILER]
Breathless#11: Brian Bellis (mootpoint) on Mar 6, 2019 [SPOILER]
Took my breath away
Is it Breaking ball?#12: Joe (infrapinklizzard) on Mar 7, 2019
JoDeen is very close.#13: Koreen (mom24plus) on Mar 7, 2019 [SPOILER]
breath of fresh air is all i got...#14: Joe (infrapinklizzard) on Mar 8, 2019
In a Whatzit, the bulk of the words of the phrase are shown. What words are shown in this?#15: Kristen Vognild (kristen) on Mar 8, 2019 [SPOILER]
And then, what happened to make it look like this?
Break in the wall?#16: Joe (infrapinklizzard) on Mar 8, 2019 [HINT] [SPOILER]
The words are "breath" and "all".#17: Bill Eisenmann (Bullet) on Mar 8, 2019 [SPOILER]
Where is the "all"?
All out of breath?#18: Norma Dee (norm0908) on Mar 8, 2019
I have a feeling we are all going to be wondering why we couldn't see the obvious. Or not.#19: Joe (infrapinklizzard) on Mar 8, 2019 [SPOILER]
Bill got it! It is "all out of breath".
Because the 'all' has fallen out of the 'breath'.
