Just incase …..other players haven’t played this game …..the letters B and E ….need to be ……inside your word ….NOT …the first of last letters

it’s a good game …mind ya it took me a while for the penny to drop …

I still am not sure about this game..
Do the 2 letters have to follow each other in the word???
Can you start or end the word with the letters??

I wondered about that, too. Paul does say "in any order." Maybe he will clarify for us.

Well, the idea of the game is to think of a word that 'contains' those 2 letters.
They can be spread apart or be next to each other and be in any order, but not be exclusively used as just the first or last letter of your new word.

If you look at 3 of the previous posts above: #13 #14 #15. The letter Y is used for the end of the word rather than inside the word.

For example, the 2 letters from post #14: P Y, could be used in the word 'Gypsum' or perhaps 'Papyrus'.
In the case of 'Papyrus', although it starts with the P, that letter is also inside the word...
