Jeu de la même famille que les mots croisés mais dont le damier est composé de lettres qui dissimulent les mots figurant dans la liste qui l'accompagne. 1, record 3, French, - mots%20entrecrois%C3%A9s
Record number: 3, Textual support number: 1 OBS
Les mots y figurent écrits en lignes horizontales, verticales ou transversales, de haut en bas ou de bas en haut, de gauche à droite ou de droite à gauche. Une fois tous les mots de la liste retrouvés sur le damier, il reste, épars, des lettres servant à composer un mot caché, d'où l'appellation au singulier désignant également ce jeu. Avec le temps, ce passe-temps adoptera une désignation fixe; l'usage actuel porte à croire que "mots cachés" sera la dénomination préférée. 1, record 3, French, - mots%20entrecrois%C3%A9s
