Shortlist note
How to play this shortlist
This list has 22 Wordle guesses; 4 are possible answers. The calculator compared 14,786 Wordle guesses against those 4 answers. Possible-answer status helps narrow a puzzle, but does not predict which word Wordle will choose.
Past Wordle answers: GOODY (February 10, 2025); GOOEY (September 28, 2025); GOOFY (October 23, 2024); GOOSE (June 11, 2022).
AAHED does not fit this page's clues. GOODS keeps every clue shown here and leaves an average remainder of 1.5 (2 in its worst branch). Check any additional yellow-position clues in the full Solver.
Tight family:
GOO_Y
GOODY, GOOEY, GOOFY differ only in the fourth position. Trying them one at a time can use several turns; AAHED tests the family more efficiently.
