Expert Wordle Tips & Strategies
- Start with a strong opening word – Choose a word with at least two or three vowels and a mix of common consonants (e.g., SLATE, LEAST).
- Avoid reusing eliminated letters – Ensure your "grey" letters aren't wasted in your next guess.
- Letters can repeat – Remember that words often contain double letters, such as ABBEY or PRESS.
- Common words are key – The Wordle solution list favors familiar English words over obscure vocabulary.
- The 'Y' Strategy – If 'E' is eliminated, many words end in 'Y' (e.g., LUCKY, funny).
- Strategic Elimination – If you have 4 letters (like _IGHT), don't just guess letters one by one. Use a word like FERNS to test F, E, R, N and S all at once to find the correct prefix.
- Browse by letter – If you know one letter is in the answer, our 5-letter word lists by starting, ending, or contained letter give you the full set of candidates to feed into the solver.
- Take your time – There is no timer! Careful thought is the best Wordle help you can get.
