One hundred eighty eight words begin with V, and the second box is a vowel in all but a handful.

Vowels Are the Only Real Openings After V

I takes the second box in sixty six of the one hundred eighty eight, thirty five percent, with E on forty three, A on thirty nine and O on thirty. U adds five more.

Only seven letters appear there at all, and everything outside the vowels holds five words between them. The second box is a vowel choice and nothing else.

The Common V Words

VALUE, VOICE, VISIT, VIDEO and VITAL are the entries most likely to be wanted, with VAGUE, VIRUS and VOTER close behind.

  • VALUE

V Is a Poor Letter to Guess Early

V appears rarely anywhere in English, so a V guess that misses tells you little. It is better used to confirm than to explore.

E fills the fourth box in thirty nine of the one hundred eighty eight, twenty one percent, and S closes fifty one, twenty seven percent. Those two facts describe most of the page.

Only twelve words repeat a letter, six percent, which is among the lowest shares of any letter.

So a visible double narrows this page very sharply. VALVE and VIVID are the shapes to think of when one shows up.

Past that, the third box is the useful target. R takes it in twenty seven words, L in twenty six and N in twenty three.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is VALUE or VOICE the better opening

Both are common and they test different vowels. VALUE also covers the E fourth box, which thirty nine words here take.

Can a consonant follow V

Almost never. Only seven letters appear in that box and the non vowels among them hold five words in total.

How many V words end in S

Fifty one, which is twenty seven percent. E and A follow on twenty three and twenty one.
