Peyvok: the Kurmanji word puzzle

Peyvok (from peyv, “word”) is a word puzzle in Kurmanji Kurdish. Each level gives you a wheel of letters and a crossword-style grid. Find the hidden words by joining letters on the wheel. There are 458 levels in 15 chapters.

How to play

Build a word by joining letters on the wheel, then submit it.
Each required word you find is revealed on the grid. Find them all to finish the level.
Bonus words are extra real words you can make from the same letters. They are optional but help you earn three stars and coins.
Tap the audio button to hear a word’s pronunciation, and see its English meaning.

Power-ups

Tips

Look for short words first. Two- and three-letter words like av (water) or roj (day) often unlock longer ones.
Mind the accents. e and ê are different letters on the wheel. The alphabet guide explains each one.
Learn as you go. Every word in Peyvok is in our Kurmanji–English word list with its meaning, and most have a recording.
