Pangram Hints

One pangram is hidden within the letters. It uses all letters at least once. Look for a combination that feels complete and includes the center letter "N". You might want to consider longer words that fit this criterion!

Difficulty Guide

To identify easier words:

Focus on 4-letter and 5-letter combinations, where the majority are simple.
Words ending in "ly", "al", or "an" tend to be more accessible.

For harder words, look for those that are longer and less familiar, particularly those with the patterns "cli" or "cy".

Today's Special Patterns

This puzzle features unique patterns such as:

Frequent use of "al" and "ny" as endings.
Words starting with "cl" and "an" are particularly fruitful.

Pro Tips

For advanced players:

Experiment with different vowel placements, especially around "N".
Cross-reference common prefixes and suffixes to build longer words.
Keep an eye out for words that double letters, as they are often overlooked.

Stay positive and keep trying! You're doing great!
