Double Letters Strategy in Word Games

Adjacent repeated characters are common in English vocabulary but frequently overlooked in word games:

  • Most Frequent Double Consonants: Letters like LL (BELLS, HILLY), SS (GRASS, BLESS), and TT (KITTY, OTTER) account for a large portion of 5-letter double consonants.
  • Most Frequent Double Vowels: EE (SPEED, TEETH) and OO (BLOOD, SPOON) appear regularly in 5-letter words.
  • Wordle Double Clues: When a letter illuminates green or yellow, consider whether testing a double placement is necessary to avoid running out of turns.
