The answer to this meta is a five-letter word. To find that word, solve every mini-grid. Then take one randomly placed word from the first five grids to spell out a hint to the sixth grid. Starting at a letter in the bottom right grid, move horizonally and vertically, not diagonally, to spell this puzzle's meta answer. Send your meta answer with the title "META PUZZLE #3 ANSWER" and your answer. I'll announce one random winner from the correct submissions on Friday, July 30, 2021. If you need any hints, email me or DM me on Twitter @pauliscool1927. Good luck! See an important announcement at dictionaries6.wordpress.com.
