    pattern = []
    for letter in word.upper():
        if letter not in string.ascii_uppercase:

            pattern.append(letter)
            continue
        if letter not in mapping:
            # new letter we haven't seen yet in this word
            mapping[letter] = available_pattern_letters.pop()
        pattern.append(mapping[letter])
