Keyword Tips & Strategy
- Start with Common Letters: Six-letter words often rely on common letters like E, A, R, S, and T—use these early.
- Think Across All Rows: The keyword must work for every horizontal word, so avoid guesses that only fit one or two.
- Use Partial Fits: If part of your guess works in multiple rows, try similar words that preserve those letters.
- Watch Word Endings: Common endings like -ER, -ED, -LY, or -ES can help lock in positions quickly.
- Eliminate Conflicts Fast: If a letter clearly breaks multiple rows, swap it out in your next guess.
