B first and K third gives 18 words, and two families cover nearly three quarters of them.

How B First and K Third Splits

A takes about forty four percent of the box between and I twenty eight. Nothing else reaches twelve.

Those two branches carry the same shape as each other, which is unusual and makes the page easier than its size suggests.

The BAK and BIK Families in B and K Words

BAKER, BAKED and BAKES sit on one, BIKER, BIKED and BIKES on the other, and the two run in parallel through the same three endings.

Why the Box After B Decides the B and K Answer

Because the endings repeat across both families, the box after the B is doing almost all the work here.

Settle whether it holds an A or an I and you are usually choosing between three words rather than eighteen.

  • BAKER
  • BIKES
  • BAKED
  • BIKER
  • BAKES

BAKER and BIKER are the pair to watch, since they differ in one box and both are common. Guessing either one resolves the other.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is BREAK part of this pattern

No. BREAK puts R in the second box and E in the third. The K lands last.

Which is the better opener, BAKER or BIKES

BAKER. Its A covers the larger branch and its R tests an ending that BIKES does not.

Do any entries break the two families

BEKAH and BOKOS sit outside them, but neither is a word most players would name, so the two families are effectively the whole page.
