Shortlist note
How to play this shortlist
This list has 32 Wordle guesses; 9 are possible answers. The calculator compared 14,786 Wordle guesses against those 9 answers. Possible-answer status helps narrow a puzzle, but does not predict which word Wordle will choose.
Past Wordle answers: SCALD (September 29, 2022); SCALE (August 3, 2024); SCANT (January 4, 2024); SCARE (April 8, 2022); SCARF (May 14, 2023).
FLYPE does not fit this page's clues. SCALE keeps every clue shown here and leaves an average remainder of 3.0 (4 in its worst branch). Check any additional yellow-position clues in the full Solver.
Trap warning:
SCAL_
SCALD, SCALE, SCALP, SCALY differ only in the fifth position. Trying them one at a time can use several turns; FLYPE tests the family more efficiently.
