TARGET

The compiler uses Chambers 21st Century Dictionary (1999 edition)

WE HAVE found 50 words that can be made from the letters in the square, each of which uses the letter in the middle and contains at least four letters. We challenge you to beat this, and also to make at least one nine-letter word. No abbreviations, initials or foreign words unless they form words in everyday use. No plurals. TODAY’S TARGET: Good 33; very good 40; excellent 50. Solutions tomorrow.
