What Is a Pangram?

A pangram is a sentence or phrase that uses every letter in a particular set at least once. The concept comes from typography, where pangrams are used to display all the characters in a typeface.

The most famous pangram in English uses all 26 letters of the alphabet:

"The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog."

Here are more well-known pangrams:

  • "Pack my box with five dozen liquor jugs." — 32 letters, widely used in font samples.
  • "How vexingly quick daft zebras jump." — 30 letters, a tighter pangram.
  • "The five boxing wizards jump quickly." — 31 letters, another classic.
  • "Sphinx of black quartz, judge my vow." — 29 letters, one of the shortest common pangrams.

How the Pangram Game Works

In our pangram game, the challenge is simpler but no less satisfying. Instead of all 26 letters, you work with just seven:

  • Seven letters are arranged in a honeycomb, with one letter highlighted in the center.
  • Every word you make must include the center letter and be at least four letters long.
  • Letters can repeat — use any of the seven letters as many times as you need.
  • The pangram is a word that uses all seven of the puzzle letters at least once. It earns bonus points.
  • Find all the words — most puzzles have 30 to 80 valid words. The pangram is the crown jewel.

Pangram Hunting Strategies

Start Long

Pangrams are typically seven or more letters. Begin by trying to build the longest words you can, since shorter words cannot be pangrams.

Track Your Letters

Keep a mental note of which letters you have used. If your word uses six of the seven letters, think about whether you can fit the missing one in.

Shuffle and Reshuffle

Rearranging the letter order in the honeycomb often reveals word patterns you missed. Use the shuffle button whenever you feel stuck.

Why Pangrams Matter Beyond Games

Pangrams are not just a game mechanic. They have practical and cultural significance:

  • Typography and design — Font designers use pangrams like "The quick brown fox" to showcase every letter in a typeface.
  • Keyboard testing — Pangrams help test keyboards and input methods by ensuring every key is pressed.
  • Cryptography — Pangram-like constraints appear in cipher and encoding exercises.
  • Vocabulary building — Hunting for pangrams forces you to think creatively about less common letter combinations, strengthening your word knowledge.
  • Education — Teachers use pangrams as handwriting practice sentences because students write every letter of the alphabet in a single exercise.
