- 1 The first trick is to look for any letters that appear frequently together. These include consonants such as "ch," "sh," or "ph." They can also include vowel consonant combinations like "qu."
- 2 Another trick is to separate the consonants from the vowels and look at them separately. Sometimes looking at them away from one another makes the word become more obvious.
- 3 Yet another tip is to actually break out your Scrabble tiles, if you have them, and grab the same letters that you are given and try to make something from them.
