- JAUNT
- ALLOW
- FRUIT
- BURNT
I gambled that today’s first word began with a rare appearance by the letter J for JAUNT rather than a common or garden letter T for TAUNT. From here, R-U letter combinations speeded me up, leading to FRUIT and BURNT.
The final word came to me by sounding out the letters I had (A-L-O) – resulting in ALLOW. No errors after my start words, but far from easy.
