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. 1. Letter count +

    The word has five letters and works as a noun.

  2. 2. Starting letter +

    It begins with S.

  3. 3. Vowel pattern +

    There's only one vowel in the whole word, and it's in the third position.

  4. 4. Word ending +

    It means A capacity to do something well; a technique, an ability, usually acquired or learned, as opposed to abilities that are regarded as innate..

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 SKILL. It's a noun that means A capacity to do something well; a technique, an ability, usually acquired or learned, as opposed to abilities that are regarded as innate.. Example: "Where did you pick up that skill?" Synonyms: proficiency, tekkers, knack. Forms: skills, skil.

Repeated Letters

The letter 'L' is the one that appear more than once.
