See how the rules apply
An answer containing one E can award only one positive E mark in a guess containing two. Compare this with the rule that governs the move. Choose a deliberate next step.
Keep this in mind
Repeated letters do not imply unlimited copies in the answer. A different version of the game may use a different rule. Compare the worked example with your own position. Use the reasoning, not an answer copied from a different board.
