✅

You are only creating variables word1, word2, etc. when the form is valid, but you use these variables in the context, even if these ar enot valid hence the error.

You thus should assign something to word1, word2, word3 and result in case the form is not valid, for example:

def index(request):
    form = WordForm(request.POST)
    if form.is_valid():
        word1 = form.cleaned_data['Word1']
        word2 = form.cleaned_data['Word2']
        word3 = form.cleaned_data['Word3']
        result = form.cleaned_data['Result']
    else:
        word1 = word2 = word3 = result = None

    context = {'form': form, 'word1': word1, 'word2': word2, 'word3': word3, 'result': result}
    return render(request, 'form.html', context)
