Hint 1 of 3
Every word must contain the center letter D. Words are at least 4 letters long, and letters can repeat.
Hint 2 of 3 - Pangram
There is one pangram today: a verb meaning dug out or uncovered by digging, and at nine letters it is the longest word on the board.
Hint 3 of 3 - Stuck?
Look for word families: an EX- set (exacted, exceed and exceeded alongside the pangram), a DE- set (decade, deed, deeded, detect and detected), and short D words like DATA, DATE, DEAD and CEDE to bank quick points.
