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: KEITLOAS, KERATINS, KERATOID, KAOLINES, KRYOLITE, KARYOTIN — recognisable words that cover a lot of common letters. More in best starting words.
- 91 of 516 use no repeated letters (e.g. KABELJOU, KACHERIS, KAGOULES, KAJEPUTS, KALOTYPE, KALUMPIT) — these test more of the alphabet per guess. See words with no repeated letters.
- Most vowels (5): KALOOKIE, KAMAAINA, KAREAREA, KAUMATUA, KOEKOEAS. Vowel-heavy guesses lock down the trickiest slots early — see words with many vowels.
- 144 contain a double letter (e.g. KABABBED, KABADDIS, KABBALAH, KABBALAS, KABOBBED, KAFFIYAH) — worth remembering when a letter feels “used up.” See words with double letters.
