About Jumble Maker

The Daily Jumble has challenged newspaper readers since 1954 with scrambled letters that hide a single word. Our Jumble Maker unjumbles those letters in seconds, revealing the answer so you can move on to cracking the cartoon pun. It works for the classic Daily Jumble, the Sunday edition with extra words, and any word scramble game that throws mixed-up letters your way.

How It Works

1

Enter the Jumbled Letters

Type the scrambled letters exactly as they appear in the puzzle.

2

Review the Matches

The maker shows words that use all your letters (perfect matches appear first).

3

Crack the Cartoon Clue

Use circled letters from each unjumbled word to solve the final pun.

Jumble Unjumbling Tips

Pro tip: In a Jumble puzzle, the answer always uses ALL of the given letters exactly once. Look for common word patterns before resorting to the maker.
  • Scan for common endings: Check if the letters can form -TION, -MENT, -NESS, -ABLE, or -IGHT
  • Spot double letters: If you see two of the same letter, think of words with double letters (LL, SS, TT, EE, OO)
  • Separate vowels from consonants: Write them apart visually, then try recombining in natural English patterns
  • Use word length as a clue: Daily Jumble answers are typically 5 to 7 letters — adjust your expectations accordingly
  • Try reading backwards: Sometimes reading the scrambled letters in reverse instantly reveals the hidden word

Frequently Asked Questions

How does the Jumble Maker work?

Enter the scrambled letters from the puzzle. The maker finds every valid word that can be spelled from those letters, prioritizing words that use ALL letters (a perfect unjumble). The top match is usually your Jumble answer.

Where can I play the Daily Jumble?

The Daily Jumble appears in hundreds of newspapers and can be played online at jumble.com. The Sunday Jumble is a larger variant with more scrambled words and a longer final answer.

What if multiple words match all the letters?

The correct Jumble answer uses all given letters exactly once. If multiple same-length words appear, the common everyday word (not the obscure one) is usually correct.

Can this solve the final cartoon answer?

For the cartoon clue, you need the circled letters from each individual unjumbled word. Enter those circled letters into the maker to find the punny final answer.
