Today’s Winning Words:

1. THUMB
2. BECKONING

Let’s break it down:

• THUMB starts with T (from the left side) and ends at B (right side), using valid letters from all different sides:
  T → H → U → M → B.

• BECKONING then picks up from B (the last letter of the previous word) and uses the rest of the unused letters:
  B → E → C → K → O → N → I → N → G.
  It loops through every other side perfectly, completing the puzzle in just two words, an ideal solution!

This combination is clean, efficient, and uses all 12 letters while respecting the puzzle’s adjacency rules.
