    (b) A “word” must contain at least three (3) letters. A “word” cannot be formed by linking letters diagonally or by reading the letters from the bottom to top or right to left. Letters combined to form a “word” must appear in an unbroken horizontal or vertical string of letters in the CROSSWORD PUZZLE that is not interrupted by a blank space and contains every single letter square between two blank spaces or the edge and a blank space. Every letter in the unbroken string must be revealed in “YOUR LETTERS” and be included to form a “word.” The possible complete words are shown in the CROSSWORD PUZZLE.
