Board snapshot

What stands out on Wend No. 44

This 5-by-5 board has 22 open cells and 3 blocked cells. Every row has open space, with row totals of 5, 5, 5, 3, and 4; the columns hold 4, 5, 4, 5, and 4 open cells. That layout leaves a broad connected playing area, but the blocked cells interrupt the bottom portion of the board and make it useful to notice where a route can continue before you commit to a letter.

The answer lengths are 4, 5, 6, and 7. Their first letters are O, M, T, and D, so you can use both the length and opening letter as a quick filter while looking at this board. The four paths together assign all 22 open cells, which means a promising route also has to leave usable neighboring cells for the remaining answers.

Repeated letters give this edition several plausible starting points: T appears 5 times, O appears 4 times, and A, H, I, and L each appear twice. Eight open cells have at most two open orthogonal neighbors; that is a raw board-neighbor count, not a statement about completed routes. When a candidate path reaches one of those cells, pause to check its available open neighbors and the letters you still need.

Spoiler-aware approach

Use the board before opening the answers

Start by separating the four lengths in your mind. A four-letter route beginning with O has a compact run near the left side, while the five-letter route beginning with M starts on the top row. You do not need to uncover a full word immediately: trace one or two legal moves, check the next required letter, and step back if the route strands a nearby open cell.

For the longer routes, count direction changes as a practical clue. The seven-letter path begins at row 5, column 1 and changes direction 5 times, so it is not a straight sweep along an edge. Follow its first few letters slowly and leave the rest of the route covered until you want confirmation; that preserves a useful amount of discovery while still giving you a firm place to begin.

Once you have a likely path, check that every move is orthogonal and lands on an open cell. Then look at what remains rather than judging the word alone. On this board, the completed set fills every open cell, so the route choices work together. Open the walkthrough only if you want the full LinkedIn Wend answer, exact coordinates, and a position-by-position check.

Spoiler walkthrough

LinkedIn Wend Answer for Wend No. 44

The four answers below are in board order by length. Each entry gives the full word only here, followed by the exact route so you can compare it with the board one move at a time.

Open answer 1 route analysis

OATH — 4 letters

Trace OATH from row 1, column 2. Move left to row 1, column 1 for A, then turn down to row 2, column 1 for T and continue down to row 3, column 1 for H. The letters read O → A → T → H. This route uses three rows and two columns, with one turn between its leftward opening move and its downward finish.

For a careful board check, the complete sequence is: 1 at row 1, column 2; 2 at row 1, column 1; 3 at row 2, column 1; 4 at row 3, column 1. It starts with 3 open orthogonal neighbors and ends at a cell with 2 open orthogonal neighbors. All four visited cells are on the board edge, including the corner at row 1, column 1, which makes this a useful route to settle before considering the interior letters.

Open answer 2 route analysis

MOTTO — 5 letters

Trace MOTTO from row 1, column 5, where M begins the route. Go left to row 1, column 4 for O, down to row 2, column 4 for T, left to row 2, column 3 for the next T, and up to row 1, column 3 for O. The path reads M → O → T → T → O and turns after each of its first three moves before its final upward step.

Use this exact transcript if you want to compare every cell: 1 at row 1, column 5; 2 at row 1, column 4; 3 at row 2, column 4; 4 at row 2, column 3; 5 at row 1, column 3. It spans two rows and three columns. The start at row 1, column 5 has 2 open orthogonal neighbors, while the final O at row 1, column 3 has 3, so it helps to trace the middle pair of T cells in order rather than choosing among the repeated T letters by sight alone.

Open answer 3 route analysis

TAILOR — 6 letters

Follow TAILOR from row 2, column 5. Go down to row 3, column 5 for A, left to row 3, column 4 for I, down to row 4, column 4 for L, down again to row 5, column 4 for O, then right to row 5, column 5 for R. The sequence is T → A → I → L → O → R. Its two consecutive downward moves in the middle are worth checking because they carry the route from row 3 through row 5.

The coordinate record is: 1 at row 2, column 5; 2 at row 3, column 5; 3 at row 3, column 4; 4 at row 4, column 4; 5 at row 5, column 4; 6 at row 5, column 5. This path spans four rows but only two columns, and it finishes at row 5, column 5, which has 1 open orthogonal neighbor. That endpoint gives you a concrete way to test the final R: the route must arrive there from row 5, column 4.

Open answer 4 route analysis

DELIGHT — 7 letters

Trace DELIGHT from row 5, column 1. Move right to row 5, column 2 for E, up to row 4, column 2 for L, right to row 4, column 3 for I, up to row 3, column 3 for G, left to row 3, column 2 for H, and up to row 2, column 2 for T. The letters read D → E → L → I → G → H → T. This is the longest route, and its five direction changes explain why following it cell by cell is more reliable than trying to visualize the whole line at once.

For an exact check, use: 1 at row 5, column 1; 2 at row 5, column 2; 3 at row 4, column 2; 4 at row 4, column 3; 5 at row 3, column 3; 6 at row 3, column 2; 7 at row 2, column 2. It spans four rows and three columns. The starting D at row 5, column 1 has 1 open orthogonal neighbor, so the first move to row 5, column 2 is fixed by the board. After this route is assigned, all 22 open cells have been assigned across the four answers.
