WRONG as a word-puzzle answer

WRONG is a 5-letter word with 1 vowel (O) and 4 consonants (W, R, N, G). Every letter is distinct, so it rarely punishes a clean opening guess.

It leans on high-frequency letters (R, O, N), so a strong vowel-and-common-consonant opener tends to light up quickly. Watch for the less-common letter W — saving a guess to test it once the vowels are placed is usually the fastest route.
