Grow #34 — the solution
The tree from November 3, 2026: five rows, three letters to seven, each row the one before plus one letter — a Gentle day.
The words
| Row | Letters | The word, and what else the row accepts |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | A T N | TAN also ANT, NAT |
| 2 | +E | NEAT also ANTE, ETNA, TANE |
| 3 | +E | EATEN also ENATE |
| 4 | +S | SENATE also ENATES, ENSATE, SATEEN, STEANE |
| 5 | +R | EASTERN also EARNEST, NEAREST, RATEENS |
Row by row
Any real word of a row’s letters counts, so the word in bold is only the one the Hint spells — the commonest. Each step below is read from that word to the next.
- TAN. The three letters were dealt as A, T, N. ANT and NAT are accepted too.
- NEAT. Add E: the letters of TAN have to move. ANTE, ETNA and TANE are accepted too.
- EATEN. Add E: the letters of NEAT have to move. ENATE is accepted too.
- SENATE. Add S: the letters of EATEN have to move. ENATES, ENSATE, SATEEN and STEANE are accepted too.
- EASTERN. Add R: the letters of SENATE have to move. EARNEST, NEAREST and RATEENS are accepted too.
