See how the rules apply
An answer containing one E can award only one positive E mark in a guess containing two. Focus on why the action is allowed, not only its outcome. Keep the controls nearby.
Avoid this misunderstanding
Repeated letters do not imply unlimited copies in the answer. Check the rule before repeating the action. Read one step at a time and try it on the playing area. Match the instruction to the control you use.
