Frequently Asked Questions

Is LAWYER part of this list

No, LAWYER runs to six letters. LAWNS is the five letter A branch entry that fits the pattern.

Is LOWER or LAWNS more common

LOWER, by a very large margin. LAWNS is an ordinary word but it turns up far less often in writing.

Why does the E branch hold nothing

LEW is not a productive opening in English. The four entries sitting there are surnames and dialect forms rather than words.
