About the Lexigo answer chain

How does the answer chain work?

In Lexigo, every word starts with the last letter of the previous one. So this answer hooks into its neighbours through that shared letter — if you've already solved the words on either side, the first and last letters here are already locked in.

Why isn't this word in my dictionary?

Lexigo accepts a wide range of standard English words, including some that lean a bit obscure. We verify every answer against the live puzzle.
