KEYSTONE · Day 2

Saturday, July 25, 2026 — three word bridges.

Every neighbouring pair has to make one word. SOME → DAY → LIGHT → HOUSE works because someday, daylight and lighthouse are all words. You are given the two ends; you supply the middle. More than one bridge is often legal, and any legal bridge counts.

How day 2 worked out

Day 2 ran on Saturday, July 25, 2026. Its three bridges were TEAM to COME, MORE to SEEING and BIRTH to TABLE. Between them they build nine compound words, all listed at the bottom of this page. Below is the answer to each bridge and what makes it fit.

Warm-up: TEAM to COME

The answer is WORK then OUT, which gives teamwork, workout and outcome. The first gap is 4 letters, the second is 3.

Only one pair in the KEYSTONE word bank joins TEAM to COME, so this bridge had a single accepted answer. The narrow end is usually the one to solve first.

Main: MORE to SEEING

The answer is OVER then SIGHT, which gives moreover, oversight and sightseeing. The first gap is 4 letters, the second is 5.

Only one pair in the KEYSTONE word bank joins MORE to SEEING, so this bridge had a single accepted answer. The narrow end is usually the one to solve first.

Challenge: BIRTH to TABLE

The answer is DAY then TIME, which gives birthday, daytime and timetable. The first gap is 3 letters, the second is 4.

Only one pair in the KEYSTONE word bank joins BIRTH to TABLE, so this bridge had a single accepted answer. The narrow end is usually the one to solve first.
