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 interjection.
2. Starting letter +

It begins with T.
3. Vowel pattern +

There's only one vowel in the whole word, and it's in the second position.
4. Word ending +

It means Target sighted..

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 TALLY. It's a interjection that means Target sighted.. Example: "Speedbird 123, New York, traffic at two oclock, seven miles, a Boeing 737, west-bound, at 4000 feet." Synonyms: tallyho.

Repeated Letters

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