The Hints, in Order

Each hint below adds one piece of information without giving away the rest — open them one at a time and stop as soon as you've got enough to make a confident guess.

1. Letter count +

The word has five letters and works as a adjective.
2. Starting letter +

It begins with C.
3. Vowel pattern +

There are two vowels, in the second and fourth positions.
4. Word ending +

It means Of, relating to, or belonging to a city, a citizen, or citizenship; municipal or civil..

Still stuck after all four? That usually means it's worth re-reading the tiles from your own last guess rather than reaching for a brand new word.

The Answer

The solution is CIVIC. It's a adjective that means Of, relating to, or belonging to a city, a citizen, or citizenship; municipal or civil.. Example: "Thousands of people came to the Civic Center to show off their civic pride." Forms: more civic, most civic.

Repeated Letters

The letter 'I, C' are the ones that appears more than once.
