An answer containing one E can award only one positive E mark in a guess containing two. Focus on why the action is allowed, not only its outcome. Look for the relevant detail.

Repeated letters do not imply unlimited copies in the answer. Compare the situation with the worked example. Watch the feedback after an action. A message can explain whether the input was accepted or whether a rule needs attention.
