A Word Search puzzle, also known as Word Find or Word Seek, is believed to have been originally invented by the Spanish puzzle creator Pedro Ocón de Oro, likely in the 1960s. In Spanish, it's known as "Sopa de Letras" which translates to "soup of letters." This original version featured both a word list and a letter grid.The first known word search puzzle in English appeared in the U.S. on March 1, 1968. The puzzle was created by Norman E. Gibat in the Selenby (Sell an’ Buy) Digest in Norman, Oklahoma.
ワードサーチの歴史
ワードサーチの起源は明確ではありませんが、20世紀半ばに新聞やパズル雑誌での人気が高まったと言われています。1968年には、教育者のNorman E. Gibatが自身の広告用新聞にワードサーチパズルを掲載。これが大変な人気を呼び、多くの読者や教育者たちが教育現場でのツールとして取り入れるようになりました。
Word Search Strategies
A common strategy is to go through the puzzle left to right and look for the word's first letter. After finding the letter, one should look at the eight surrounding letters to see whether the following letter of the word is there. One can then continue this method until the entire word is found. Another strategy is to watch for certain letters that may pop out at you more than others, mainly circular letters. You may find that O, Q, C, and X are easier to see in the grid. Look for other patterns in words, especially double letters.
