Ninety four words carry a double E across the second and third boxes, which means every one of them repeats a letter before you start.

The Double E Leaves Three Boxes to Fight Over

NEEDS, SEEMS, KEEPS, FEELS and TEENS are the same frame with different consonants dropped in. R, S and W each start nine words and sixteen letters appear in the first box, so it stays wide open.

  • NEEDS
  • SEEMS
  • KEEPS
  • FEELS
  • TEENS

Most EE Words End in S

Fifty four of the ninety four finish with S, fifty seven percent, and another twenty end in Y. That is seventy four of the list on two letters, so ruling out both at once is the single biggest cut available here.

Where the EE Pattern Gets Awkward

TEETH and BEECH break the habit by ending in H, which only four words do. They are easy to overlook because the rest of the group trains you to expect S or Y.

Ten words end in E, which puts a third vowel into a five letter word. Those are worth checking once the S and Y branches come back empty.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does a doubled letter help on this page

Not at all. All ninety four words carry one by definition, so a visible repeat tells you nothing you did not already know.

Which consonant follows the double E most often

D, with fifteen words. P and R take eleven each, so the fourth box is nearly as open as the first.

Is BEECH the tree or the shore

The tree. The shore is spelled BEACH with an A, and that belongs to a different pattern entirely.
