Selecting the endpoints in reverse order also finds the same word. Your next round may have a different position, so inspect it before acting. Keep the game’s format in mind.
Avoid this misunderstanding
Words cannot turn corners. Check the rule before repeating the action. Keep the stated aim separate from side details such as animation or appearance. Progress is measured by the game’s own completion or scoring rules.
