This is a gemlog for the SpellBinding puzzle, in which you construct words using the specified letters (each word must contain the anchor letter).
GHEE HANG HANGING HAPPEN HAPPENING HAPPING HEAP HEAPING HEIGH HEINIE HENGE HENNA HIGH HINGE HINGING HINNIE HIPPIE HIPPING NEIGH NEIGHING NIGH NIGHING PEAHEN PHAGE
Pangram: HAPPENING
At a first glance I thought there were no interesting words, but then I looked closely...
HAPPING - happening
HEIGH - interjection, aka HEY!.
HEINIE - buttocks
HENGE: Merriam-Webster has a curious definition:: a circular Bronze Age structure (as of wood) with a surrounding bank and ditch found in England. Sometimes I wonder who writes these!
HINNIE - ah, a britishism slipped in... a dialectal variant of 'honey'. Sorry - I try to keep words used strictly in confined areas out, but it is hard and opinionated...
HIPPING: to hip is to make aware, tell, inform... I will keep you hipped?
NEIGHING - making prolonged horse noise
NIGH: near in place/time/relationship; nearly/almost. NIGHING: drawing or coming near to; approaching; nearing
PHAGE: bacteriophage, a virus that infects bacteria
Another day.
