How to play this shortlist
This list has 10 Wordle guesses; 7 are possible answers. The calculator compared 14,786 Wordle guesses against those 7 answers. Possible-answer status helps narrow a puzzle, but does not predict which word Wordle will choose.
Past Wordle answers: CHUCK (May 23, 2026); CLUCK (August 4, 2021); PLUCK (December 21, 2021); SHUCK (May 23, 2025); TRUCK (December 12, 2025).
CHATS does not fit this page's clues. SHUCK keeps every clue shown here and leaves an average remainder of 2.14 (3 in its worst branch). Check any additional yellow-position clues in the full Solver.
Tight family:
S_UCK
SHUCK, SNUCK, STUCK differ only in the second position. Trying them one at a time can use several turns; CHATS tests the family more efficiently.
