SUNNY as a word-puzzle answer

SUNNY is a 5-letter word with 1 vowel (U) and 4 consonants (S, N, N, Y). It repeats 1 letter, which is a classic trap — guessers who assume five distinct letters get stuck.

It leans on high-frequency letters (S, N), so a strong vowel-and-common-consonant opener tends to light up quickly. There are no rare letters here, so it is a fair, mid-difficulty answer for the daily Classic puzzle.
