Ordinary words like TABLE begin the field of 5 letter words starting with TA, and after the opening pair, the last letter determines much of the guessing.
Many of them end in Y, which forms adjectives such as TASTY and TACKY.
To test a final Y before the middle letters are known, TASTY is the guess.
