I have turned the letters around and have done what the phrases say.
How many words am I looking for with the letters I got?
I only see one word that is more often used when looking for answers, but is it used here as well I wonder. Well, I just don't know how to find words/the answer.
Could I get some help please?

Without giving too much away; you do need all four directions to get your answer.

Most likely you're ending up with too many letters at the moment Smile

I'm surprised.
Thank you Cregan, your hint lead me to the answer.

But the north phrase is very misleading. Is it not?

Not inasmuch as the E and W lead you directly to the answer while the others are more incidental (but I see what you mean)
