Unscramble EZIPR: Letters, Definition, and Answer
EZIPR unscrambles to PRIZE, a 5-letter noun from Jumble Answers Today: October 26, 2026. No letter repeats.
How to crack EZIPR
RIPE uses four tiles and looks finished until Z has nowhere to sit — the trap that burns a minute. RIP and PIER pull the same way and strand the Z. Put PR at the front the way pride and print do, then IZE behind it: PR, IZE. Once Z lands inside the reward noun instead of as trash, PRIZE is the only common word left on the rack.

What does PRIZE mean?
PRIZE (noun): a reward given for winning a contest, or something valued highly. Example: “She kept the first-place prize on the shelf above her desk.”
Similar: award, trophy, reward, jackpot. Opposite: penalty, forfeit.
Did you know? "Prize" and "price" share a Latin root for worth; English split them so prize means the reward you win and price means what you pay.
Using PRIZE in a sentence
A prize is a reward for winning: prize money, grand prize, door prize. Prize also works as a verb meaning to value highly (prize honesty) or to pry something open in some dialects. Award and trophy cover the contest sense; penalty and forfeit push the other way. Prize possession is a fixed phrase for something you value. Keep prize separate from price as a spelling cousin — both talk about worth, but prize is what you win and price is what you pay.
How PRIZE fits the puzzle
PRIZE circles Z. That rare tile becomes the Z in ZY — the second half of "DUE-ZY" — so finishing this word locks the doozy half of the credit-card punchline.
Its circled letters feed the caption answer, "DUE-ZY".
