Quick solving tip

If one grid is refusing to cooperate, don’t brute-force it. Use a “coverage” guess that tests fresh consonants you haven’t tried yet; it often unlocks two boards at once, and it’s especially useful on days like this, where repeated letters can trick you into placing the same vowel in the wrong spot.
