Using a random letter wheel
This letter wheel holds all 26 letters of the alphabet, and each one has an equal 1 in 26 chance (about 3.8%) on every spin. Results come from crypto.getRandomValues() rather than a predictable pseudo-random generator, so no letter is favored — not even the ones people instinctively pick when asked to “say a random letter”.
Teachers use it for phonics and spelling: spin a letter and ask students for a word that starts with it, or turn on “Remove winner after spin” to work through the alphabet without repeats. It also drives category games like Scattergories or Stop — load the word-game set, which leaves out Q, U, V, X, Y and Z so every round is playable.
The Vowels only set is useful for younger learners and for word puzzles where you need a random vowel. Because the list is just text, you can edit it freely: add digraphs like CH and SH, remove letters you have covered, or paste in another alphabet entirely.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I pick a random letter from A to Z?↓
Press Spin or hit the space bar. The wheel contains all 26 letters, each with an equal 1 in 26 chance, and the pointer lands on the letter that was chosen with crypto.getRandomValues().
Can I spin through the alphabet without repeats?↓
Yes. Tick “Remove winner after spin” and each letter is taken off the wheel when you close the result, so every letter comes up exactly once before the wheel is empty. Undo puts the last removed letter back.
Which letters are left out of the word-game set?↓
Q, U, V, X, Y and Z are removed because very few words start with them, which makes rounds of Scattergories-style games frustrating. The remaining 20 letters each have an equal chance.
