Pick your favorite 6 letter common English word that has no repeated letters, such as wombat
.
Write a program in an N×N grid of characters without comments such that each row and column contains all the letters of your word in lowercase in any order. The program must output a definition of your word in 36 characters or more.
Rules
- Output to stdout. There is no input.
- Your word must be on Dictionary.com and only contain a-z. No proper nouns, no acronyms, no abbreviations, no contractions.
- Your program and output may only contain printable ASCII characters (hex codes 20 to 7E). (This isn't counting the necessary newlines in the program grid.)
- Comments are anything that the compiler or interpreter traditionally ignores. You may use code that does not contribute to the output or doesn't officially get executed.
- The output definition should be grammatical and accurate, but certainly may be funny or clever.
- Any row or column that at least contains your word`s 6 unique letters in lowercase is valid. Diagonals do not matter.
Scoring
This is code golf but since all submissions must be in the same square format you can simply specify your score with N. The lowest N wins, and of course an N below 6 is impossible. In case of ties, the highest voted answer wins.
Example
If your word was wombat
your program might look like this (N = 7):
wombatD
ombatEw
mbatFwo
bat(wom
atWwomb
tBwomba
)wombat
Notice that every row and every column has the characters w
o
m
b
a
t
.
The output might be: (40 chararacters)

(for anyone who can figure out how to do this!). \$\endgroup\$
