Imagine you turn over your first tile…it’s a blank. You think you will have a bonus word on your first rack. Your heart sinks when the remaining 6 tiles are rubbish! But what if you look closely….
Listed below are 26 racks, each containing a blank. Each rack makes just one bonus word – can you find them all ?
As an extra clue, the blank represents a different letter of the alphabet for each different rack. (ie. Only use the blank as an A once, a B once etc..). The blanks are not in alphabetical order though!
Hint to solving…
Most of the words are everyday English, none are obscure Scrabble words.Give each rack a few moments. Don’t worry if you can’t solve it straightaway. Once you have found a few, then think about where the vowels might go, and then the JQXZ. Make note of which letters you’ve used…and then try the remaining letters against the remaining racks.
