Using scratch paper can really help if you're a visual person. The neat thing about wordplay is the more you read and solve puzzles, the better you will get. The other twenty percent consists of borrowed words and oddball stuff that don't fit neatly into a pattern.
This works for scrambled word puzzles as well (without an unscramble tool).Ībout 80% of the English language is pretty formulaic once you're familiar with the root words and common prefixes / suffixes. Help you max out your points in scrabble by unscrambling lots of words. Pick 2Ĭonsonants and start swapping vowels them around. Set it aside and see if there areĪny obvious pluralization options for the remaining letters.Īnother good trick is to start with common consonant patterns and swap out vowels. The same applies to seeing an 'S' in your letters.
For puzzles, this really narrows down your choices. First, look for common sequences of words that start a word (prefixes) or end a word (suffixes).įor example, if you notice you have the letters "ing", set those to one side and see what you can make with the other letters.
