Kids' color word search puzzle with colorful paint splatters and a list of color words to find.

Let’s solve this step by step.

We are given a word search puzzle with 11 color words to find:

1. blue
2. pink
3. black
4. red
5. purple
6. orange
7. green
8. yellow
9. white
10. grey
11. brown

The grid is 14 rows × 14 columns (letters only). We need to locate each of these words in the grid — they can be horizontal, vertical, or diagonal, forward or backward. But since this is for kids, likely mostly horizontal and vertical, left-to-right or top-to-bottom.

Let’s go one by one.

---

1. blue

Look for “blue” in the grid.

Scan row by row.

Row 1: W A B R E E U T N E P E H K → no
Row 2: K O W P R P P R A W T E P L → no
Row 3: L U O O R A N G E B P P O P → has “ORANGE”, not blue
Row 4: A R L O B O O E N G Y E N A → no
Row 5: E U L G R U O R K B L A C K → ends with “BLACK”, but we’re looking for “blue”
Wait — look at row 5: ...K B L A C K → that’s “black” later.

Actually, let’s check row 1 again: positions 3-6: B R E E — no
What about row 6? I E E E O P N R E L E U L B → ends with “L B” — maybe backwards?

Try scanning vertically.

Column 1: W, K, L, A, E, I, N, B, C, W, R, P, I, L → no
Column 2: A, O, U, R, U, E, T, W, N, H, W, I, E, W → no
...

Wait — try row 13: I E P W K W G R E Y R B H Y → has “GREY”
Row 14: L W R I B E E R R N E I U N → has “BEER”? Not helpful.

Hold on — let’s look for “blue” horizontally first.

Check row 1: position 3 is B, then R — not U
Row 2: no B followed by L
Row 3: no
Row 4: no
Row 5: ...B L A C K — that’s “black”

Wait — what about row 6: ...E U L B — last four letters: E U L B — if read backwards: B L U E! Yes!

Row 6: I E E E O P N R E L E U L B
Positions 11-14: E U L B → reverse: B L U E → so “blue” is there, backwards, right-to-left.

So blue is found in row 6, columns 11–14, spelled backwards.

But usually in kid puzzles, they accept any direction. So we’ll count it.

Alternatively, maybe forward somewhere else?

Check row 10: W H I T E I E R Y R P E P E → no
Row 11: R W G E L P R U P E D R Y N → no
Row 12: P I N K E N R B L L R L P G → has “PINK” at start, then later “B L L” — not blue

Wait — row 13: I E P W K W G R E Y R B H Y → no
Row 14: L W R I B E E R R N E I U N → “I B E E” — not blue

Maybe vertical?

Column 14: K, L, P, A, K, B, G, R, E, E, N, G, Y, N → no
Column 13: H, P, O, N, C, L, U, R, W, P, Y, P, H, U → no
Column 12: E, E, P, E, A, U, E, P, T, E, R, L, B, I → no
Column 11: P, T, P, Y, K, L, W, E, W, R, D, R, R, E → no
Column 10: E, E, O, E, B, E, H, P, C, P, E, L, B, N → no
Column 9: N, A, B, G, R, R, W, E, T, Y, D, R, Y, E → no
Column 8: T, W, E, Y, O, E, E, Y, W, R, E, B, R, R → no
Column 7: U, A, N, E, O, N, K, Y, R, Y, P, R, E, E → no
Column 6: E, R, G, E, R, P, G, T, R, I, R, E, W, E → no
Column 5: E, P, A, O, U, O, W, E, W, E, P, E, K, B → no
Column 4: R, P, O, L, G, E, R, N, E, T, L, K, W, I → no
Column 3: B, W, O, L, R, E, Y, R, E, I, G, N, P, R → no
Column 2: A, O, U, R, U, E, T, W, N, H, W, I, E, W → no
Column 1: W, K, L, A, E, I, N, B, C, W, R, P, I, L → no

Hmm. Maybe diagonal? That might be too hard for kids.

Wait — perhaps I missed “blue” going down.

Try column 14 again: K, L, P, A, K, B, G, R, E, E, N, G, Y, N — no
Column 13: H, P, O, N, C, L, U, R, W, P, Y, P, H, U — no
Column 12: E, E, P, E, A, U, E, P, T, E, R, L, B, I — no
Column 11: P, T, P, Y, K, L, W, E, W, R, D, R, R, E — no
Column 10: E, E, O, E, B, E, H, P, C, P, E, L, B, N — no
Column 9: N, A, B, G, R, R, W, E, T, Y, D, R, Y, E — no
Column 8: T, W, E, Y, O, E, E, Y, W, R, E, B, R, R — no
Column 7: U, A, N, E, O, N, K, Y, R, Y, P, R, E, E — no
Column 6: E, R, G, E, R, P, G, T, R, I, R, E, W, E — no
Column 5: E, P, A, O, U, O, W, E, W, E, P, E, K, B — no
Column 4: R, P, O, L, G, E, R, N, E, T, L, K, W, I — no
Column 3: B, W, O, L, R, E, Y, R, E, I, G, N, P, R — no
Column 2: A, O, U, R, U, E, T, W, N, H, W, I, E, W — no
Column 1: W, K, L, A, E, I, N, B, C, W, R, P, I, L — no

Perhaps “blue” is not present? But that can’t be — all colors should be there.

Wait — let’s recheck row 6: I E E E O P N R E L E U L B

Letters: positions 11=E, 12=U, 13=L, 14=B → so reading from right to left: B-L-U-E → yes, “blue” backwards.

In many word searches, especially for kids, they include words backwards. So we’ll accept that.

So blue is in row 6, columns 11–14, backwards.

---

2. pink

Look for “pink”.

Row 12: P I N K E N R B L L R L P G → first four letters: P-I-N-K → yes! Forward.

So pink is in row 12, columns 1–4.

---

3. black

Row 5: E U L G R U O R K B L A C K → last four letters: B-L-A-C-K → yes!

Columns 11–15? Wait, grid is 14 columns.

Row 5: let's index:

Col 1:E, 2:U, 3:L, 4:G, 5:R, 6:U, 7:O, 8:R, 9:K, 10:B, 11:L, 12:A, 13:C, 14:K → so columns 10–14: B,L,A,C,K → “black”

Yes.

So black is in row 5, columns 10–14.

---

4. red

Look for “red”.

Row 1: W A B R E E U T N E P E H K → positions 4=R, 5=E, 6=E — not D
Row 2: K O W P R P P R A W T E P L → positions 5=R, 6=P — no; position 8=R, 9=A — no
Row 3: L U O O R A N G E B P P O P → position 5=R, 6=A — no
Row 4: A R L O B O O E N G Y E N A → position 2=R, 3=L — no
Row 5: ...K B L A C K — no
Row 6: I E E E O P N R E L E U L B → position 8=R, 9=E, 10=L — not D
Row 7: N T Y R W G K E R H W E U G → position 4=R, 5=W — no; position 9=R, 10=H — no
Row 8: B W R E N T B E Y Y P E P R → position 3=R, 4=E, 5=N — not D; position 14=R — alone
Row 9: C N E E N W R R K C T W R E → position 7=R, 8=R — no; position 13=R, 14=E — not D
Row 10: W H I T E I E R Y R P E P E → position 8=R, 9=Y — no; position 10=R, 11=P — no
Row 11: R W G E L P R U P E D R Y N → position 1=R, 2=W — no; position 7=R, 8=U — no; position 12=D, 13=R — ah! positions 12=D, 13=R — but we need R-E-D.

Wait — position 11=E, 12=D, 13=R — that’s E-D-R — not red.

Position 10=P, 11=E, 12=D — P-E-D — no.

Is there “red” anywhere?

Try vertical.

Column 4: R, P, O, L, G, E, R, N, E, T, L, K, W, I → position 1=R, 2=P — no; position 7=R, 8=N — no
Column 5: E, P, A, O, U, O, W, E, W, E, P, E, K, B → no R
Column 6: E, R, G, E, R, P, G, T, R, I, R, E, W, E → position 2=R, 3=G — no; position 5=R, 6=P — no; position 9=R, 10=I — no; position 11=R, 12=E — then 13=W — not D
Column 7: U, A, N, E, O, N, K, Y, R, Y, P, R, E, E → position 9=R, 10=Y — no; position 12=R, 13=E — then 14=E — not D
Column 8: T, W, E, Y, O, E, E, Y, W, R, E, B, R, R → position 10=R, 11=E, 12=B — not D; position 13=R, 14=R — no
Column 9: N, A, B, G, R, R, W, E, T, Y, D, R, Y, E → position 5=R, 6=R — no; position 11=D, 12=R — D-R — not R-E-D
Column 10: E, E, O, E, B, E, H, P, C, P, E, L, B, N → no R
Column 11: P, T, P, Y, K, L, W, E, W, R, D, R, R, E → position 10=R, 11=D — R-D — missing E; position 12=R, 13=R — no
Column 12: E, E, P, E, A, U, E, P, T, E, R, L, B, I → position 11=R, 12=L — no
Column 13: H, P, O, N, C, L, U, R, W, P, Y, P, H, U → position 8=R, 9=W — no
Column 14: K, L, P, A, K, B, G, R, E, E, N, G, Y, N → position 8=R, 9=E, 10=E — R-E-E — not D; position 11=N — no

Wait — row 14: L W R I B E E R R N E I U N → positions 3=R, 4=I — no; positions 8=R, 9=R — no; position 10=N — no

Perhaps “red” is not there? But that can’t be.

Another idea: maybe “red” is in row 1, positions 4-6: R,E,E — close but not D.

Or row 2, position 8=R, 9=A — no.

Let’s try diagonal.

For example, start at row 1 col 4: R, then row 2 col 5: P — not E
Row 1 col 5: E, row 2 col 6: P — no
Row 3 col 5: R, row 4 col 6: O — no
Row 5 col 10: B, row 6 col 11: E, row 7 col 12: E — B-E-E — not red

This is taking too long. Let me list all words and see which ones are easy.

We have:

- pink: row 12, cols 1-4
- black: row 5, cols 10-14
- orange: row 3, cols 3-8: O,O,R,A,N,G,E — wait, "ORANGE" is 6 letters: O-R-A-N-G-E

Row 3: L U O O R A N G E B P P O P

Positions: 3=O, 4=O, 5=R, 6=A, 7=N, 8=G, 9=E — so positions 5-10: R,A,N,G,E,B — not orange.

Positions 3-8: O,O,R,A,N,G — not quite.

Positions 4-9: O,R,A,N,G,E — yes! O-R-A-N-G-E — that's "orange"!

Row 3, columns 4 to 9: O,R,A,N,G,E — perfect.

So orange is in row 3, columns 4–9.

Similarly, green: look for G-R-E-E-N

Row 4: A R L O B O O E N G Y E N A — positions 10=G, 11=Y — no
Row 5: E U L G R U O R K B L A C K — positions 4=G, 5=R, 6=U — not E
Row 6: I E E E O P N R E L E U L B — no G
Row 7: N T Y R W G K E R H W E U G — positions 6=G, 7=K — no; position 14=G — alone
Row 8: B W R E N T B E Y Y P E P R — no G
Row 9: C N E E N W R R K C T W R E — no G
Row 10: W H I T E I E R Y R P E P E — no G
Row 11: R W G E L P R U P E D R Y N — positions 3=G, 4=E, 5=L — not R
Row 12: P I N K E N R B L L R L P G — position 14=G — alone
Row 13: I E P W K W G R E Y R B H Y — positions 7=G, 8=R, 9=E, 10=Y — G-R-E-Y — that's "grey", not green
Row 14: L W R I B E E R R N E I U N — no G

Vertical? Column 4: R,P,O,L,G,E,R,N,E,T,L,K,W,I — position 5=G, 6=E, 7=R — G-E-R — not green
Column 6: E,R,G,E,R,P,G,T,R,I,R,E,W,E — position 3=G, 4=E, 5=R — G-E-R — same
Position 7=G, 8=T — no
Column 7: U,A,N,E,O,N,K,Y,R,Y,P,R,E,E — no G
Column 14: K,L,P,A,K,B,G,R,E,E,N,G,Y,N — position 7=G, 8=R, 9=E, 10=E, 11=N — G-R-E-E-N! Yes!

Row 7 col 14: G
Row 8 col 14: R
Row 9 col 14: E
Row 10 col 14: E
Row 11 col 14: N

So green is in column 14, rows 7 to 11: G,R,E,E,N — downward.

Perfect.

Now yellow: Y-E-L-L-O-W

Look for it.

Row 4: A R L O B O O E N G Y E N A — position 11=Y, 12=E, 13=N — not L
Row 7: N T Y R W G K E R H W E U G — position 3=Y, 4=R — no
Row 8: B W R E N T B E Y Y P E P R — positions 9=Y, 10=Y — not E
Row 9: C N E E N W R R K C T W R E — no Y
Row 10: W H I T E I E R Y R P E P E — position 9=Y, 10=R — no
Row 11: R W G E L P R U P E D R Y N — position 13=Y, 14=N — not E
Row 13: I E P W K W G R E Y R B H Y — position 10=Y, 11=R — no; position 14=Y — alone
Row 14: L W R I B E E R R N E I U N — no Y

Vertical? Column 3: B,W,O,L,R,E,Y,R,E,I,G,N,P,R — position 7=Y, 8=R — no
Column 9: N,A,B,G,R,R,W,E,T,Y,D,R,Y,E — position 10=Y, 11=D — no; position 13=Y, 14=E — Y-E — then what? Row 14 col 9: Y, row 14 col 10: E, but we need more.

Diagonal? Or perhaps in row 4: position 11=Y, 12=E, then row 5 col 12: A — not L

Another idea: row 10: W H I T E I E R Y R P E P E — position 9=Y, 10=R — no

Let's try column 11: P,T,P,Y,K,L,W,E,W,R,D,R,R,E — position 4=Y, 5=K — no; position 11=D, etc.

Perhaps "yellow" is not there? But that can't be.

Wait — row 13: I E P W K W G R E Y R B H Y — positions 10=Y, 11=R — no

Let's look for "white" first, might be easier.

white: W-H-I-T-E

Row 10: W H I T E I E R Y R P E P E — positions 1-5: W,H,I,T,E — yes! Perfect.

So white is in row 10, columns 1–5.

Great.

Now back to yellow.

After "white" in row 10, we have I,E,R,Y,... so position 9=Y, but not followed by E,L,L,O,W.

Perhaps vertical.

Column 1: W,K,L,A,E,I,N,B,C,W,R,P,I,L — position 1=W, 2=K — no; position 10=W, 11=R — no
Column 2: A,O,U,R,U,E,T,W,N,H,W,I,E,W — position 8=W, 9=N — no; position 11=W, 12=I — W-I — then row 12 col 2: I, row 13 col 2: E, row 14 col 2: W — W-I-E-W — not yellow

Column 3: B,W,O,L,R,E,Y,R,E,I,G,N,P,R — position 2=W, 3=O — no; position 7=Y, 8=R — no

Column 4: R,P,O,L,G,E,R,N,E,T,L,K,W,I — position 13=W, 14=I — W-I — then row 14 col 4: I, row 13 col 4: W — already did

Perhaps "yellow" is in row 4: position 11=Y, 12=E, then if we go down-right diagonal.

Row 4 col 11: Y
Row 5 col 12: A — not E
No.

Row 7 col 3: Y, row 8 col 4: E, row 9 col 5: N — Y-E-N — not L

This is frustrating.

Let's try "purple".

purple: P-U-R-P-L-E

Look for it.

Row 2: K O W P R P P R A W T E P L — positions 4=P, 5=R, 6=P — not U; position 7=P, 8=R — no
Row 3: L U O O R A N G E B P P O P — position 2=U, 3=O — not P; position 11=P, 12=P — no
Row 4: A R L O B O O E N G Y E N A — no P at start
Row 5: E U L G R U O R K B L A C K — position 2=U, 3=L — not P; position 6=U, 7=O — no
Row 6: I E E E O P N R E L E U L B — position 6=P, 7=N — not U; position 12=U, 13=L — U-L — not P
Row 7: N T Y R W G K E R H W E U G — position 13=U, 14=G — no
Row 8: B W R E N T B E Y Y P E P R — position 11=P, 12=E, 13=P — P-E-P — not U
Row 9: C N E E N W R R K C T W R E — no P
Row 10: W H I T E I E R Y R P E P E — position 11=P, 12=E, 13=P — P-E-P — not U
Row 11: R W G E L P R U P E D R Y N — positions 6=P, 7=R, 8=U, 9=P, 10=E — P-R-U-P-E — almost, but we need P-U-R-P-L-E

Positions 8=U, 9=P, 10=E — U-P-E — not R

Position 6=P, 7=R, 8=U — P-R-U — not U after P

Let's try vertical.

Column 4: R,P,O,L,G,E,R,N,E,T,L,K,W,I — position 2=P, 3=O — not U; position 7=R, 8=N — no
Column 6: E,R,G,E,R,P,G,T,R,I,R,E,W,E — position 6=P, 7=G — not U
Column 11: P,T,P,Y,K,L,W,E,W,R,D,R,R,E — position 1=P, 2=T — not U; position 3=P, 4=Y — no; position 11=D, etc.

Perhaps "purple" is in row 11: positions 8-13: U,P,E,D,R,Y — not matching.

Another idea: row 2: positions 4-9: P,R,P,P,R,A — not purple

Let's look for "grey".

grey: G-R-E-Y

Row 13: I E P W K W G R E Y R B H Y — positions 7=G, 8=R, 9=E, 10=Y — yes! G-R-E-Y

So grey is in row 13, columns 7–10.

Good.

Now brown: B-R-O-W-N

Look for it.

Row 4: A R L O B O O E N G Y E N A — position 5=B, 6=O, 7=O — not R; position 5=B, then row 5 col 5: R, row 6 col 5: O, row 7 col 5: W, row 8 col 5: N — let's check vertical.

Column 5: E,P,A,O,U,O,W,E,W,E,P,E,K,B — position 4=O, 5=U — not B; position 14=B — alone

Column 1: W,K,L,A,E,I,N,B,C,W,R,P,I,L — position 8=B, 9=C — not R; position 11=R, 12=P — no

Column 10: E,E,O,E,B,E,H,P,C,P,E,L,B,N — position 5=B, 6=E — not R; position 13=B, 14=N — B-N — not R-O-W

Column 14: K,L,P,A,K,B,G,R,E,E,N,G,Y,N — position 6=B, 7=G — not R; position 11=N — alone

Perhaps diagonal.

Start at row 4 col 5: B
Row 5 col 6: U — not R
No.

Row 8 col 1: B, row 9 col 2: N — not R

Let's try row 14: L W R I B E E R R N E I U N — position 5=B, 6=E — not R; position 10=N — alone

Perhaps "brown" is not there? But that can't be.

Another thought: in row 4, position 5=B, then if we go down: row 5 col 5: R, row 6 col 5: O, row 7 col 5: W, row 8 col 5: N — yes!

Column 5: let's list:

Row 1: E
Row 2: P
Row 3: A
Row 4: O — wait, row 4 col 5 is O? Let's double-check the grid.

Grid row 4: A R L O B O O E N G Y E N A

So col 1:A, 2:R, 3:L, 4:O, 5:B, 6:O, 7:O, 8:E, 9:N, 10:G, 11:Y, 12:E, 13:N, 14:A

So col 5: row 4: B

Row 5: E U L G R U O R K B L A C K — col 5: R

Row 6: I E E E O P N R E L E U L B — col 5: O

Row 7: N T Y R W G K E R H W E U G — col 5: W

Row 8: B W R E N T B E Y Y P E P R — col 5: N

So column 5, rows 4 to 8: B, R, O, W, N — yes! B-R-O-W-N

So brown is in column 5, rows 4–8, downward.

Perfect.

Now back to yellow and purple and red.

We have most, but missing yellow, purple, red.

Let's do red again.

Perhaps in row 1: positions 4-6: R,E,E — not D

Row 2: position 8=R, 9=A — no

Row 7: position 4=R, 5=W — no; position 9=R, 10=H — no

Row 8: position 3=R, 4=E, 5=N — R-E-N — not D

Row 9: position 7=R, 8=R — no; position 13=R, 14=E — R-E — then what? Row 10 col 14: E, not D

Row 11: position 12=D, 13=R — D-R — not R-E-D

Unless it's backwards: D-E-R

Row 11: positions 10=E, 11=D, 12=R — E-D-R — not R-E-D

Row 14: positions 8=R, 9=R — no

Perhaps vertical.

Column 8: T,W,E,Y,O,E,E,Y,W,R,E,B,R,R — position 10=R, 11=E, 12=B — R-E-B — not D

Column 9: N,A,B,G,R,R,W,E,T,Y,D,R,Y,E — position 5=R, 6=R — no; position 11=D, 12=R — D-R — not R-E-D

Column 13: H,P,O,N,C,L,U,R,W,P,Y,P,H,U — position 8=R, 9=W — no

Column 14: K,L,P,A,K,B,G,R,E,E,N,G,Y,N — position 8=R, 9=E, 10=E — R-E-E — not D

Ah! Position 8=R, 9=E, 10=E — but we need D. Unless it's "ree" but not red.

Perhaps "red" is in row 6: position 8=R, 9=E, 10=L — R-E-L — not D

I think I found it.

Row 1: W A B R E E U T N E P E H K — positions 4=R, 5=E, 6=E — not D

But what if we consider that "red" might be in a different orientation.

Another idea: in the grid, row 13: I E P W K W G R E Y R B H Y — position 8=R, 9=E, 10=Y — R-E-Y — not D

Perhaps "red" is not present, but that can't be.

Let's list all words we have found:

- blue: row 6, cols 11-14 backwards (B-L-U-E)
- pink: row 12, cols 1-4
- black: row 5, cols 10-14
- orange: row 3, cols 4-9
- green: col 14, rows 7-11
- white: row 10, cols 1-5
- grey: row 13, cols 7-10
- brown: col 5, rows 4-8

Missing: red, purple, yellow

Now for yellow: Y-E-L-L-O-W

Let's try row 4: position 11=Y, 12=E, then if we go down-left diagonal.

Row 4 col 11: Y
Row 5 col 10: B — not E
No.

Row 7 col 3: Y, row 8 col 4: E, row 9 col 5: N — Y-E-N — not L

Row 10 col 9: Y, row 11 col 10: E, row 12 col 11: L, row 13 col 12: P — Y-E-L-P — not L-O-W

Close but not quite.

Row 11: R W G E L P R U P E D R Y N — position 13=Y, 14=N — not E

Perhaps "yellow" is in row 4: position 11=Y, 12=E, then row 5 col 12: A — not L

I recall that in some grids, "yellow" might be split, but unlikely.

Let's try column 11: P,T,P,Y,K,L,W,E,W,R,D,R,R,E — position 4=Y, 5=K — no; position 11=D, etc.

Another thought: in row 8: B W R E N T B E Y Y P E P R — positions 9=Y, 10=Y — not E

Perhaps "yellow" is not there, but let's assume it is and look harder.

Let's do purple first.

purple: P-U-R-P-L-E

Look at row 11: R W G E L P R U P E D R Y N — positions 6=P, 7=R, 8=U, 9=P, 10=E — so P-R-U-P-E — if we take positions 8-13: U,P,E,D,R,Y — not matching.

Positions 6-11: P,R,U,P,E,D — P-R-U-P-E-D — not purple.

But if we take positions 8,9,10,11,12,13: U,P,E,D,R,Y — not good.

Perhaps vertical.

Column 6: E,R,G,E,R,P,G,T,R,I,R,E,W,E — position 6=P, 7=G — not U

Column 11: P,T,P,Y,K,L,W,E,W,R,D,R,R,E — position 1=P, 2=T — not U; position 3=P, 4=Y — no

Column 4: R,P,O,L,G,E,R,N,E,T,L,K,W,I — position 2=P, 3=O — not U

Let's try row 2: K O W P R P P R A W T E P L — positions 4=P, 5=R, 6=P — not U; position 7=P, 8=R — no

Row 3: L U O O R A N G E B P P O P — position 2=U, 3=O — not P; position 11=P, 12=P — no

Row 6: I E E E O P N R E L E U L B — position 6=P, 7=N — not U; position 12=U, 13=L — U-L — not P

Perhaps "purple" is in row 10: W H I T E I E R Y R P E P E — positions 11=P, 12=E, 13=P — P-E-P — not U

I think I found "purple" in row 11: let's read positions 8 to 13: U,P,E,D,R,Y — not good.

Another idea: perhaps "purple" is spelled backwards or something.

Let's consider that "red" might be in row 1: positions 4-6: R,E,E — but if we ignore the extra E, but no.

Perhaps "red" is in the grid as part of another word, but unlikely.

Let's search for "red" in the grid by looking at every occurrence of 'R' and see if followed by 'E' and 'D'.

From earlier:

- Row 1 col 4: R, then col 5: E, col 6: E — not D
- Row 2 col 5: R, col 6: P — not E
- Row 2 col 8: R, col 9: A — not E
- Row 3 col 5: R, col 6: A — not E
- Row 4 col 2: R, col 3: L — not E
- Row 5 col 5: R, col 6: U — not E
- Row 5 col 8: R, col 9: K — not E
- Row 6 col 8: R, col 9: E, col 10: L — R-E-L — not D
- Row 7 col 4: R, col 5: W — not E
- Row 7 col 9: R, col 10: H — not E
- Row 8 col 3: R, col 4: E, col 5: N — R-E-N — not D
- Row 8 col 14: R — alone
- Row 9 col 7: R, col 8: R — not E
- Row 9 col 13: R, col 14: E — R-E — then row 10 col 14: E — not D
- Row 10 col 8: R, col 9: Y — not E
- Row 10 col 10: R, col 11: P — not E
- Row 11 col 1: R, col 2: W — not E
- Row 11 col 7: R, col 8: U — not E
- Row 11 col 12: D, col 13: R — D-R — not R-E-D
- Row 12 col 7: R, col 8: B — not E
- Row 12 col 11: R, col 12: L — not E
- Row 13 col 8: R, col 9: E, col 10: Y — R-E-Y — not D
- Row 13 col 11: R, col 12: B — not E
- Row 14 col 3: R, col 4: I — not E
- Row 14 col 8: R, col 9: R — not E
- Row 14 col 10: N — not R

So no "red" found? That can't be right.

Perhaps "red" is in the grid as "der" backwards.

For example, row 11: positions 10=E, 11=D, 12=R — E-D-R — which is "red" backwards.

Yes! In row 11, columns 10-12: E,D,R — so "red" backwards.

Similarly, for "yellow", perhaps it's there backwards or in a different way.

Let's assume that for now.

So red is in row 11, columns 10-12, backwards: E-D-R -> R-E-D when reversed.

Now for yellow: Y-E-L-L-O-W

Let's try to find it backwards: W-O-L-L-E-Y

Look for "wolley" or something.

Row 13: I E P W K W G R E Y R B H Y — position 4=W, 5=K — not O; position 6
