@@Words that End with E
One thing I've noticed is that if the revealed letter given to you is an "E" in the second to last position, the last letter is most likely an "R", a "D", or an "S". Your opponent may be making a word like "trad-ER", "trad-ED", or "trad-ES". Conversely, when it's your turn to make a word, you may be able to stump your opponent for a bit by placing an "E" in the second to last position and making a word that ends in "-EM" or "-EN". |
