Use ? for unknowns

97 words put B first and N third. Unusually, all four common vowels take a real share of the box between them.

An Even Spread in B and N Words

A leads at about thirty one percent, U at twenty one, E at nineteen and O at eighteen. Nothing runs away with it and nothing is negligible.

That evenness means you should pick guesses by what else they test rather than by which vowel you are chasing, since all four are worth similar amounts.

Endings That Repeat Across B and N Words

BANDS, BONDS and BENDS follow the same shape with a different vowel each time. BUNCH and BENCH do the same thing on a different ending.

So landing the ending is often more useful here than landing the vowel. Once you know the word finishes in DS or CH, the vowel becomes a one in four guess with the rest already solved.

BONUS and BINGO are the two that break those families entirely, and both are common enough that they are worth keeping in mind when the repeating shapes fail.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is BRAND part of this group

No. BRAND puts R in the second box and A in the third, with the N fourth. Everything is one place out from what this pattern needs.

Which ending is most common here

Plurals in DS and NS between them cover a large share, which is why knowing the last box is S helps so much in this particular group.

Does BUNNY qualify

Yes, B first, U second, N third. It also doubles the N into the fourth box, a shape only a few entries in this group use.
