		mabbo on Feb 11, 2023 \| parent \| context \| favorite \| on: Pangram When the Wordle craze happened, I wanted to come up with the best four word combo that hit as many common letters as possible. Not quite a pangram, but pretty close, and as memorable as possible. "DWARF CLUBS MOPEY THING". All it's missing are JZXQVK.

For a three word combo, CLAIM, DROWN and SHUTE cover the 15 most common letters with no overlaps.

Nice! I've been using AUDIO as my opening word which will give me four out of the five vowels.

I find vowel heavy is sometimes not great. Hitting a semi obscure letter like b or c is much more helpful than e.
