Spelling Bee Answers: Two Pangrams in an -ING Hive Around the Letter G
Today's hive is built from P, R, N, I, U, B around the golden center letter G. Every answer must contain G, and the puzzle hides two pangrams, one of them perfect. This is an -ING hive through and through, so the right approach finds most of the list quickly. Here is how I solved it.

NIGIRI
Word of the Day
Nigiri is a style of sushi made from a small hand-pressed mound of rice topped with a slice of fish or other seafood. The name comes from a Japanese word meaning "to grip," which fits the way the chef shapes it by hand. It is also a handy Spelling Bee word because it uses I twice and ends in a vowel, which is unusual in a hive full of -ING words.
Key Takeaways
- BURPING is the perfect pangram and UPBRINGING is the regular pangram.
- G is in every answer, and the -ING ending does most of the work.
- Test each consonant as a stem: Burning, Running, Pruning, Purging.
- Doubled-letter stems (Binning, Rigging, Bugging, Ribbing) make up a big share of the list.
- The BR and GR clusters unlock Brig, Bring, Grin, Grip and Grub.
- Don't skip the UN- words and the short finds: Unrig, Guru, Rung.
