Attempt 1
This is the first attempt and we’ll choose a random word to start with.

Letter r is not present in the word and we will not use it any more
Letter i is not present in the word and we will not use it any more
Letter t is not present in the word and we will not use it any more
Some letters are missing (like m, r, i, t) but it’s also important piece of information
Word should contain letters [e]
