Boggle Me This
Arrange the alphabet (except the letter Q) in a 5x5 grid. (The first line is ABCDE, the second is FGHIJ, etc.) Begin with any letter. Move one letter at a time horizontally, vertically or diagonally, accumulating letters. For example, GAB would be an acceptable word. What is the longest word you can make without reusing a letter?
Hint
Start with the letter C.Answer
According to the Scrabble dictionary, CHINTZY is the longest word, and there are only five six letter words in the grid.Hide Hint Show Hint Hide Answer Show Answer
