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

If we look into details, we can see that:

Letter t is not present in the word and we will not use it any more
Letter h is on a different spot - this means that it cannot be at position 4

Some letters are missing (like l, t) but it’s also important piece of information
