Stepword #14: Sing your AUNT a SONG
Ladder #14 of Stepword came out on a Monday. Its story line, “Sing your AUNT a SONG”, sent players up a 4-letter ladder that starts at AUNT and finishes at SONG.
#14 in numbers and letters
- Date: Monday, October 19, 2026
- Start word: AUNT
- Goal word: SONG
- Par: 4 steps
- Word length: 4 letters
Reading par 4 in #14
Par is 4 against 3 different places. The gap of one is a detour built into the ladder: one rung that changes a letter the goal does not need, to reach a word that can carry on.
Both words have N in the third place, which gives you something to hold on to. AUNT has 2 vowels and SONG has 1 vowel. The game’s list has 2 different ways to climb in par.
- Letter 1: A to S
- Letter 2: U to O
- Letter 3: N to N (already there)
- Letter 4: T to G
Where #14 sits among the ladders
6 of the 18 ladders so far have had a par of 4, counting this one.
Climbing #14 yourself
