There is a word pool for every level, so re-running the level might give you easier words (relatively speaking). Also keep in mind the in 99% the input word should be a normal English words, like “animal” or “strike”.
Some levels have ambiguity in them that can only be solved via word/letter enumeration (e.g. narrowing down the candidate list) or through the extra powers of “console” (if you already unlocked enough).
If you attach a screenshot I can take a look and maybe there is something sneaky going on.
