- Start from the ending. Of the 6,696 common seven-letter words, 29% end in S, 16% in ED and 14% in ING. If you hold I, N and G, or E and D, set them aside and build the front from what is left.
- Pair the consonants. Clusters that often start words, such as ST, PL, TR, CH and SH, fix the front and leave fewer places for the vowels.
