good puzzles! I did not notice that the right side of the page had reversed words, and when they did unambiguously show up starting at 9, I was mostly just confused. 0 didn't help with that a ton; it still didn't click for me (because all of them were valid words reversed) so I further distrusted the bottom left to tell me the first letter of the word (figuring that perhaps it could tell me the start or end -- surely "si" wouldn't count as a word in this all-english puzzle (of course, there's also "lengua de gato" but I was far away from finding that))
