This page lists every answer for Zen Word level 961, all 39 of them. The words are listed in the order the game accepts them, so you can take the single one you are missing instead of reading the whole board.
Zen Word builds each level from one letter pool, and the longer answers almost always share their opening letters with the shorter ones — filling the three- and four-letter words first usually reveals the rest without help. If you would rather keep going than look up one answer at a time, step through from the Zen Word answers hub, which indexes every level we hold.
Every answer is checked against the live game rather than copied from another site. Games do get updated, so if a word here stops matching what your screen shows, leave a comment below and it will be re-checked.

3 Tips for Zen Word
The board is the whole puzzle
Every answer is built from what the level actually shows you and nothing else. Counting that first rules out most of what comes to mind, which is quicker than trying words and being rejected.
Place the longest answer first
Long answers use up the awkward letters and leave a set that spells the short ones out for you. Starting long is consistently faster than sweeping for three-letter words.
Neighbouring levels are the best hint
Difficulty climbs gradually rather than in jumps, so the levels either side of a hard one reuse its patterns. They are more useful than any hint the game sells you.
How to Solve a Zen Word Level
The order that clears a board fastest.
Read what you are given
Letters, tiles or clues — count them before you start. That constraint is the strongest filter you have.
Anchor with the answers you are sure of
Each confirmed answer narrows the ones it touches, so the easy entries are worth the first minute.
Work outwards
Follow the chain from what you have placed rather than jumping around the board.
Verified Answers, Not Guesses
How we verify these answers
Every answer on this page is read from the game's own puzzle data rather than retyped from another site, and is checked against what the board actually provides — so nothing listed can use a letter the level does not give you. The counts shown are computed from the stored data, not typed in by hand.
