In the game of Letter Cubes, a different letter of the alphabet is on each face of each of the 4 cubes so that 24 of the 26 letters of the alphabet, including J, occur. Words are formed by rearranging and turning the cubes so that the top letters spell a common 4-letter word. The 14 words below have been made using the cubes.

Sorry, Khanh, your solution does not work.

For SMUG you have M and G on the same cube.

For TIRE you have T and E on the same cube.
