How to search with missing letters

Type the answer as far as you know it, with a question mark for every square you haven't filled: P?R?S for a five-letter answer starting with P whose third letter is R and last is S. Underscores, dots and spaces work as blanks too. The length of the pattern is the length of the answer, so a pattern of five question marks lists every five-letter answer.

Add a word or two from the clue to narrow the results down. If no past clue matches, the dictionary list underneath shows every common word that fits the letters, which is often enough to spot the answer.

The clue list is built from the daily puzzles Funzzle covers, the NYT Mini among them, and grows as new puzzles come out. For the complete answers to a particular day, open that day's answer page; for a fresh puzzle, try Funzzle's own daily crossword and Mini Crossword.
