The number of required words $=$ The total number of words with repetition allowed - The number of words in which no alphabet is repeated

The required number of words = 8^5-{ }^8 P_5

\begin{aligned} & 8^5-{ }^8 P_5=32768-6720 \\ & 8^5-{ }^8 P_5=26048 \end{aligned}

Therefore, the total number of ways is 26048 ways.
