Tips for this pattern
- Check the letter before -ED. R comes right before it in 24 words (9%), as in TIRED and FIRED. K (21) and T (20) follow.
- Then the first letter. C starts 21 of these words (8%), like CITED and CRIED, and T starts 20.
- A strong first guess. If you know the word ends in ED, AIMED is a good opener: it tests A and I, two of the seven most common letters in the open spots.
