We recommend you begin with the most common letters in the English language: E, T, A, O, I, N, S, H, and R.
Less common letters, such as Q, X, Z, and J, should be reserved for situations where more context has been revealed to aid your guessing.
Check for short words such as 3-letter words with a blank in the middle. These are typically words such as the, and, for. A 4-letter word with three letters visible and a blank at the end will typically end in S, D, or R.
