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. Letter count +
The word has five letters and works as a adjective.
-
2. Starting letter +
It begins with M.
-
3. Vowel pattern +
There's only one vowel in the whole word, and it's in the second position.
-
4. Word ending +
It means Affected by dampness or mould; damp, mildewed, mouldy..
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
Repeated Letters
There are no repeated letters.
