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 F.

  3. 3. Vowel pattern +

    There's only one vowel in the whole word, and it's in the third position.

  4. 4. Word ending +

    It means The soft tissue of the body, especially muscle and fat..

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 FLESH. It's a noun that means The soft tissue of the body, especially muscle and fat.. Example: "The flesh of chicken, fowl, and turkey has much shorter fibre than that of ruminating animals, and is not intermingled with fat,the fat always being found in layers directly under the skin, and surrounding the intestines." Forms: fleshes.
