You are supposed to find a 8-letter word from the weird clock below by forming one or two digit numbers in an CCS or CS order and take first or last letter of the spelling of that number you have chosen. You can read it clockwise or counterclockwise! enter image description here

For example; If the clock below given and asked for 6 letter word, the methodology would be like below:

If we choose going clockwise direction in this clock and starting with 6 and 6,30,44,12,9,2 we get the word STREET: SixThirtyfourtyfouRtwelvEninE****Two.

    $\begingroup$ I don't know whether you're looking for a unique solution, but as a future puzzling tip: always be careful of combinatorial explosions. For example, ninE, twenty-siX, Three, zerO, forty-fouR, Twelve for the second example gives EXTORT and Forty, threE, Six, Twenty-nine, twenty-onE, fouR gives FESTER, say. $\endgroup$

The word is

forty-one

obtained from

Four, One, ninety-fouR, Ten, twentY, One, seveN, ninE

4, 1, 94, 10, 20, 1, 7, 9

Admittedly I ran a search and couldn't find any other 8-letters in the main puzzle.
