Word Search #49 in brief
- A 12x12 grid — 144 letters — with ten words buried in it.
- The grid, row by row: KTAORLDANLYN / GEGRSRYEOLCG / SMIBPAEPAAAK / SREIAUXTSLTR / NTATCYUAAMRS / TEXTERTXVRRS / OCAYSNYITXCJ / ILARUEALVMTA / EIIBILTLEAVA / DPDRTPIIPRRS / RSASTEROIDUG / CEPOCSELETAU.
- They run from 5 to 9 letters, and 6 of the ten are written in reverse, so scanning left-to-right alone will not finish this one.
