There is a lot of talk about the English word inference game '

Then, the screen of 'Koto no Hatango' was displayed. First, enter a five-letter word. You can enter it directly from the 'Keyboard input' field, or you can select one character at a time from the bottom.

After entering, click 'OK'. In addition, since 'Koto no Hatango' is

So, when I put in a word that contained the two letters 'u' and 'o', it was displayed in green this time. The answer should be 'Ou ○○○' because green is 'the correct word is included in the correct word and the location is also correct'.

When I entered a word that came to my mind, I narrowed it down to 'Ou * yo'.

However, even if you enter 'Oujou', it is incorrect. I couldn't think of any other words, so I'll change the tactics and put in words that use letters that I haven't used yet.

Then, it turned out that 'ri' was used. In other words, the rest of 'Ou * yo' should be 'ri', so I entered 'Ouyo' ...

I got the correct answer.
