Shortlist note
How to play this shortlist
This list has 18 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: BEVEL (May 26, 2024); GAVEL (February 6, 2026); HOVEL (November 26, 2025); LEVEL (August 15, 2025); NAVEL (March 8, 2025); NOVEL (July 9, 2025); REVEL (March 10, 2023).
ABORN does not fit this page's clues. NEVEL keeps every clue shown here and leaves an average remainder of 2.43 (3 in its worst branch). Check any additional yellow-position clues in the full Solver.
Tight family:
_EVEL
BEVEL, LEVEL, REVEL differ only in the first position. Trying them one at a time can use several turns; ABORN tests the family more efficiently.
