You can make 'getGuessedWord' a smaller code with this.

[uzairmahmed]

def getAvailableLetters(lettersGuessed):
'''
lettersGuessed: list, what letters have been guessed so far
returns: string, comprised of letters that represents what letters have not
yet been guessed.
'''
abc = string.ascii_lowercase
joined = "".join(lettersGuessed)
abc = abc.translate(None, joined)
return abc

I tried and it works.
