Use ? for unknowns

Thirty four words put N second and O third, and a run of them differ only in the final letter.

The SNOO Cluster Is the Densest Part of the Group

SNOOD, SNOOK, SNOOL, SNOOP and SNOOT all run SNOO and change only the last box. O takes the fourth box in five of the thirty four, and this cluster is most of that.

  • SNOOP
  • SNOOT
  • SNOOD
  • KNOWN
  • GNOME

The NO Words You Will Actually Want

KNOWN, KNOWS, GNOME, KNOCK and KNOTS are the most common. SNORT, SNOWY and KNOBS come up regularly.

W Is Unusually Busy in the Fourth Box

W takes it in seven of the thirty four, which is remarkable for a letter that rarely sits inside a word. KNOWN, KNOWS, KNOWE, SNOWY, SNOWS and ENOWS all use it.

That gives the page a distinctive shape. If you have N and O placed and a W confirmed anywhere, you are almost certainly inside that branch.

Where NO Words Finish

S closes ten of the thirty four and E closes six, with K on four from KNOCK, SNOEK and SNOOK.

Six of the thirty four repeat a letter, and the SNOO cluster supplies most of them.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is KNOWN or GNOME the better guess

GNOME tests the G, M and E, none of which the KNOW branch uses. KNOWN repeats the N, which costs part of the guess.

What is a KNOSP

An ornamental bud or knob in architecture. It is the least guessable entry on the page.

What does SNOOL mean

To cringe or submit meekly, in Scots. It sits in the SNOO cluster alongside SNOOD and SNOOT.
