130 five letter words begin with DI, and the third box is spread across more letters than almost any other two letter opening.
N leads at about twelve percent, then V at nine and S, C and D at eight each. R takes seven and nothing else reaches six.
DIRTY, DIARY, DIGIT, DIVER and DITCH are the entries most people would name, with DISCS, DISKS and DINER close behind.
Place names and first names cluster heavily on this page, so the usable list runs well short of 130.
DIARY is the sensible opener. Its A, R and Y reach three different branches and its letters appear across most of the group.
DI attaches to a wide range of roots and also works as a prefix meaning two, so the letters that follow it have little in common.
It repeats its I, which costs a box, but the G and T it tests are common enough that a miss still narrows the field.
DIVER, DIVES and DIVAN among others. At nine percent it is the second largest branch and its words share their first three letters.
