List insights

Numbers below are counted from this exact list — use them to pick a word that also fits your other clues.

• Strong openers here: VARLET, VASTER, VELARS, VERSAL, VARIES, VERLAN — recognisable words that cover a lot of common letters. More in best starting words.
• 197 of 422 use no repeated letters (e.g. VACKED, VADING, VADOSE, VAGILE, VAGROM, VAGUED) — these test more of the alphabet per guess. See words with no repeated letters.
• Most vowels (4): VAUDOO, VEEPEE, VOIDEE, VOODOO, VOUDOU. Vowel-heavy guesses lock down the trickiest slots early — see words with many vowels.
• 53 contain a double letter (e.g. VACUUM, VAGGED, VAKEEL, VALLAR, VALLEY, VALLUM) — worth remembering when a letter feels “used up.” See words with double letters.
