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 C.

  3. 3. Vowel pattern +

    There are two vowels, in the second and fifth positions.

  4. 4. Word ending +

    It means The punctuation mark , used to indicate a set of parts of a sentence or between elements of a list..

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 COMMA. It's a noun that means The punctuation mark , used to indicate a set of parts of a sentence or between elements of a list.. Example: "No points were used by the ancient printers, excepting the colon and the period; but, after some time, a short oblique stroke, called a virgil, was introduced, which answered to the modern comma. In the fifteenth century this punctuation was improved by the famous Aldus Manutius with the typographical art in general; when he gave a better shape to the comma, added the semicolon, and assigned to the former points more proper places." Synonyms: virgula, scratch comma, comma-point. Forms: commas, commata, commaes.

Repeated Letters

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