Blossom Word Game Answers and Hints for Sunday, Nov. 1, 2026: Today's Letters, Words to Try and Pangrams

Today’s Blossom from Merriam-Webster, for Sunday, Nov. 1, 2026, puts D in the center with the petals C, E, I, N, O and V. Solver sites list six words that use all seven letters, from 8 to 14 letters long. Below are the rules, words to try and hints for the pangrams, which are revealed in a marked spoiler section at the end.

Today’s letters

• Center: D (every word must include it)
• Petals: C, E, I, N, O, V

How Blossom works

You get 12 words to score as many points as you can. Each word must be at least four letters long and include the center letter, and letters can be used more than once. Proper nouns, hyphenated words and offensive words do not count. Longer words score more, a pangram, a word that uses all seven letters, earns 7 extra points, and each use of the highlighted bonus petal earns 5 more, so check which petal is lit before each word.

Words to try

With D in the middle and C, E, I, N, O and V around it, several short words fall out quickly: Dine, Done, Code, Node, Dive, Dove, Void and Video. Diode is another, and it uses the center letter twice. Six-letter words such as Voiced score more.

Pangram hints

• Pangram 1 (14 letters): a word for causing trouble or bother, in the past tense, with N used three times.
• Pangram 2 (11 letters): a word for a lack of proof.
• Pangram 3 (9 letters): came up with an idea or became pregnant, in the past tense.
• Pangram 4 (9 letters): persuaded someone of something, in the past tense.
• Pangram 5 (8 letters): schemed or plotted, in the past tense.
• Pangram 6 (8 letters): sent a bill for goods or services, in the past tense.
