Strategy & learning point

SWING highlights two patterns: the opening consonant cluster SW and the common ending ING.

If your grid hints at _ING, try confirming the final three letters and explore starters like SW versus ST/SL.

Narrowing to S?ING quickly reduces options; checking W often clinches SWING.

Recommended starter words for today

These opening guesses work well toward uncovering SWING. They help surface S, confirm W/ING, and place key consonants.

  • SLATE – broad coverage to establish common letters while you probe endings.
  • SWINE – aligns closely with SWIN, quickly confirming the front cluster and mid vowels.
  • USING – helps confirm the ING ending and places S/N.
