Chris- Posted February 11, 2022 Share Posted February 11, 2022 I've never used it because there are more consonants than there are vowels, and the ways vowels anchor words make them much easier to guess.

If the word was 'grape', gr_p_ is much easier to fill in than __a_e. To go into this even further, think about the possible solutions for each: gr_p_ - You can safely assume 'e' is at the end given the structure of the word; from there you only have to pick between 'grape', 'grope', and 'gripe'. __a_e - Could be tons of words! 'Grape', 'crane', 'frame', 'trade', 'grade', 'brake', 'craze', 'chafe', 'phase', 'shale', 'whale', 'drape', 'shade', 'shame', 'shape', probably even more I'm not thinking of. You don't want to focus exclusively on either vowels or consonants, and when considering the balance you have to take into consideration that vowels will provide much more in the way of context clues.

Chris- Posted February 11, 2022 Share Posted February 11, 2022 50 minutes ago, Jason said: Should the bolded be consonants? No, because I meant context in terms of application (see my previous example). The rules governing vowels are more narrow than they are for consonants, so contextually they will be easier to plug in to complete a word.

Chris- Posted February 11, 2022 Share Posted February 11, 2022 Think about it this way: would you rather have all of the vowels on the board (24 possible consonants to plug in) or all of the consonants on the board (5 possible vowels to plug in, not including ‘y’).
