A useful example

An answer containing one E can award only one positive E mark in a guess containing two. Focus on why the action is allowed, not only its outcome. Choose a deliberate next step.

Pay attention to this rule

Repeated letters do not imply unlimited copies in the answer. A different version of the game may use a different rule. Choose one rule to keep in mind for this round. Apply it consistently rather than guessing what another version might allow.
