What Ending in U Tells You
Ending-letter pages are strongest when the last slot is locked in. In the U-ending pool, the most common opening letters are B (10), P (9), and K (6), and the most common fourth-position letters are O (9), A (8), and T (7).
That lets you move from a broad ending list into tighter pattern work. If another position is confirmed, use the related pages or the Word Finder to combine the final letter with start, position, and exclusion filters.
