The Hints, in Order

Each hint below adds one piece of information without giving away the rest — open them one at a time and stop as soon as you've got enough to make a confident guess.

  1. 1. Letter count +

    The word has five letters and works as a noun.

  2. 2. Starting letter +

    It begins with D.

  3. 3. Vowel pattern +

    There are two vowels, in the second and third positions.

  4. 4. Word ending +

    It means The cessation of life and all associated processes; the end of an organism's existence as an entity independent from its environment and its return to an inert, nonliving state..

Still stuck after all four? That usually means it's worth re-reading the tiles from your own last guess rather than reaching for a brand new word.

The Answer

The solution is DEATH. It's a noun that means The cessation of life and all associated processes; the end of an organism's existence as an entity independent from its environment and its return to an inert, nonliving state.. Example: "My grandfather died a violent death, which saddened the whole family." Synonyms: (the) end, expiration, death. Forms: deaths, deth.
