What the labels mean
Every match is in our Wordle guess list. Likelihood labels estimate the chance within a year under the dated model; they do not predict the publisher’s next choice. The benchmark pool is a separate historical snapshot, while “Past answer” marks words already used. For more filters, continue this search in Word Finder.
Reference notes below describe the original list. Your filtered matches are shown above.
Choose a move for this list
BETEL leaves 27.8309 matching words on average, weighted by the answer model through 2026-11-05. This is the recommended move among a fixed panel of 64 evaluated guesses. All 912 matching words count, including words outside the working answer pool.
This move is an information probe: it does not fit this list and cannot solve this illustrated position immediately. It tests letters in Normal Mode; a Hard Mode move must also keep your revealed hints.
To attempt the most likely matching answer now, BLESS has a 9.2% modelled immediate solve chance and leaves 49.9579 words on average. This compares an immediate answer attempt with the information gained by the recommended move.
This illustration assumes only this list's letter restriction. Your grey and yellow tiles can change both the candidates and legal moves. Use the Solver for your complete board.
Where these letters usually land
You know these letters are in the word (yellow tiles) but not where. Across the 912 matching words, here's where each one tends to sit, which can help place your next guess.
- E most often the 4th letter (85% of these words), also 2nd (21%), 3rd (8%), 1st (3%).
- S most often the 5th letter (87% of these words), also 3rd (16%), 1st (7%), 4th (6%).
