Shortlist note
How to play this shortlist
This list has 19 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: CONIC (December 11, 2021); CYNIC (February 14, 2022); IONIC (October 12, 2022); MANIC (January 10, 2026); PANIC (January 15, 2022); SONIC (December 13, 2021); TONIC (July 19, 2023); TUNIC (October 29, 2024).
ATMOS does not fit this page's clues. CONIC keeps every clue shown here and leaves an average remainder of 2.5 (3 in its worst branch). Check any additional yellow-position clues in the full Solver.
Trap warning:
_ONIC
CONIC, IONIC, SONIC, TONIC differ only in the first position. Trying them one at a time can use several turns; ATMOS tests the family more efficiently.
