Unscramble FTEWAFDOKOHOR: Letters, Definition, and Answer
FTEWAFDOKOHOR unscrambles to HEAD OFF TO WORK, the 13-letter cartoon caption answer from Jumble Answers Today: October 30, 2026. Repeated letters: F (×2), O (×3).
How to crack FTEWAFDOKOHOR
Thirteen circled letters stay noisy until you read the cartoon. Sleepy Hollow's legendary rider is the Headless Horseman, so a commute phrase that also removes a head is already on the table. Pull HEAD from the H, E, A and D the four words feed, then OFF TO WORK from the leftover bank. FTEWAFDOKOHOR rearranges into the four-word leaving-for-the-job phrase once you stop hunting one long noun.

What does HEAD OFF TO WORK mean?
HEAD OFF TO WORK (pun phrase): leave for the job, played against Sleepy Hollow's Headless Horseman, who literally has his head off. Example: “After a stretch in the hollow, the legendary rider would head off to work.”
Similar: leave for the office, set out for the job, start the commute.
Did you know? Washington Irving's 1820 story "The Legend of Sleepy Hollow" made the Headless Horseman famous in American folklore: a Hessian soldier said to ride at night with his head in his hands.
The everyday phrase behind HEAD OFF TO WORK
Away from the cartoon, to head off to work means to leave for the day's job: I should head off to work, they headed off to work after coffee. Speakers also head off to school or head off home with the same verb. Set out and leave for cover similar ground; stay put and clock out push different directions. Head off on its own can also mean intercept, as in head them off at the pass; today's caption only leans on the depart sense so the missing-head folklore can share a joke with the commute.
How HEAD OFF TO WORK fits the puzzle
The punchline works twice. Head off to work is ordinary English for leaving for the job, and the Headless Horseman has his head off. The caption tells you to expect a leaving phrase well before every circled letter is parked.
The circled letters were pulled from OFTEN, WAFER, DONKEY and COHORT.
