I have hidden five 8-letter words in the grid below. You can find them by selecting one letter from each column, progressing from left to right. Each letter is used exactly once. Can you find the 5 words?

A W I A I A D E
T A C N L I N K
S T R A N I R G
S O R D N A S R
V E R E V N E T

An aardvark is similar to an anteater, though in a different genus, but is also sometimes called an anteater. It does eat ants and termites.
