How to play this shortlist
This list has 7 Wordle guesses; 2 are possible answers. The calculator compared 14,786 Wordle guesses against those 2 answers. Possible-answer status helps narrow a puzzle, but does not predict which word Wordle will choose.
Past Wordle answers: NAVAL (June 27, 2021); RIVAL (December 15, 2022).
It is legal under the clues represented on this page. If you also know where a yellow letter cannot go, check that extra detail in the full Solver.
No obvious one-slot trap. The possible answers do not form a three-word-or-larger family that differs in only one position.
