One hundred fifty two words hold R second and I third, and the group splits between two different endings.
PRICE, PRINT, WRITE, DRIVE and BRING are the most common, with TRIAL, CRIME, BRIEF and DRINK close behind.
BRIBE, BRIDE, BRINE, CRIME, DRIVE, PRICE and PRIME all finish on a silent E, which is why E closes thirty of the one hundred fifty two.
BRING, BRINK, BRISK, CRISP, DRIFT, DRINK and PRINT all close on a consonant cluster instead, and they sound nothing like the silent E group.
Working out which half you are in is the most valuable early move. It splits the page roughly down the centre before you commit to a single letter.
BRILL, DRILL, FRILL, GRILL, KRILL and TRILL all double the L and differ in the opening letter alone. Seven of the one hundred fifty two close that way.
S closes thirty three of the one hundred fifty two, just ahead of E, so plurals and silent E words run neck and neck.
P opens twenty five of the one hundred fifty two, T opens twenty three and B and G each open twenty two. The front of the word stays competitive.
PRINT tests the consonant ending and WRITE the silent E. Either one tells you which half of the page to abandon.
