Shortlist note
How to play this shortlist
This list has 14 Wordle guesses; 8 are possible answers. The calculator compared 14,786 Wordle guesses against those 8 answers. Possible-answer status helps narrow a puzzle, but does not predict which word Wordle will choose.
Past Wordle answers: AVAIL (February 18, 2023); EMAIL (March 11, 2023); FLAIL (February 8, 2023); FRAIL (November 18, 2024); GRAIL (October 30, 2023); QUAIL (June 15, 2025); SNAIL (October 10, 2023); TRAIL (February 17, 2025).
AFRET does not fit this page's clues. FRAIL keeps every clue shown here and leaves an average remainder of 2.75 (4 in its worst branch). Check any additional yellow-position clues in the full Solver.
Tight family:
_RAIL
FRAIL, GRAIL, TRAIL differ only in the first position. Trying them one at a time can use several turns; AFRET tests the family more efficiently.
