Today’s NYT Spelling Bee (September 10, 2026) uses the letters A, D, E, H, L, N with center letter U. There are two pangrams: UNHANDLED and UNHEALED.
Not ready for the full list? Here are three hints before the answers.
Hints for Today’s Spelling Bee
- Hint 1: The center letter U must appear in every valid word.
- Hint 2: Both pangrams begin with the prefix UN, suggesting words of negation or reversal.
- Hint 3: The puzzle skews toward compound and doubled-letter words, with several double-L entries appearing across multiple word lengths.

The two pangrams using all seven letters are UNHANDLED (9 letters) and UNHEALED (8 letters). UNHANDLED describes something not yet managed or addressed; UNHEALED refers to a wound or condition that has not recovered.

Today’s puzzle has 50 valid words across six letter lengths. The Queen Bee title, requiring every word to be found, presents a notable challenge given less common vocabulary including LUNULAE (plural of lunula, the crescent-shaped pale area at the base of a fingernail), ENDUED (an archaic form of endowed), and LUNULA itself. The eight UN-prefix entries are the most productive pattern to work through first.
